Bending analysis of composite plates typically uses Classical Laminated Plate Theory (CLPT) for thin plates or First-Order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT) for thicker plates

To build a guide for composite plate bending, you must follow these sequential steps to translate material physics into a solvable matrix system: Input the Young's Moduli ( ), Shear Modulus ( G12cap G sub 12 ), and Poisson's ratio ( ν12nu sub 12 ) for the individual lamina.

% Display results fprintf('Deflection: %.2f mm\n', w * 1000); fprintf('Rotation (x): %.2f degrees\n', theta_x * 180 / pi); fprintf('Rotation (y): %.2f degrees\n', theta_y * 180 / pi);

Calculate deflections and then retrieve global/local stresses for each layer to check for failure (using criteria like Tsai-Hill).
