    Abstract A meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method is applied to solve laminate piezoelectric plates described by the Reissner-Mindlin theory. The piezoelectric layer can be used as a sensor or actuator. A pure mechanical load or electric potential are prescribed on the top of the laminated plate. Both stationary and transient dynamic loads are analyzed here. The bending moment, the shear force and normal force expressions are obtained by integration through the laminated plate for the considered constitutive equations in each lamina. Then, the original three-dimensional (3-D) thick plate problem is reduced to a two-dimensional (2-D) problem. More >
