A refined adaptive logistic-trigonometric shear deformation theory for the precise bending analysis of functionally graded plates

This study presents a refined Logistic-Trigonometric Shear Deformation Theory (LTHT) for the bending and interlaminar stress analysis of functionally graded (FG) plates. The proposed theory utilizes a hybrid shape function that incorporates a logistic (sigmoid) component and a tr...
