Frequency optimization of laminated annular circular plates

This paper deals with frequency optimization of symmetrically laminated angle-ply annular circular plates. The design objective is the maximization of the fundamental frequency, and the design variable is the fiber orientation in the layers. The first-order shear deformation theory and nine-node iso...
