Abstract: This paper presents the sampling surfaces (SaS) method applied to the three-dimensional (3D) analysis of steady-state problems of thermoelasticity for laminated anisotropic plates subjected to thermal loading. It is shown that the SaS method can be utilized efficiently for finding the 3D solutions for thermoelastic angle-ply composite plates in cylindrical bending with a specified accuracy by using the sufficient number of SaS located at Chebyshev polynomial nodes.
Introduction
Three-dimensional exact analysis of laminated anisotropic plates has attracted considerable attention over the past forty years. This is due to the fact that the validity of approximate plate theories and plate finite elements can be assessed by comparing their predictions with the 3D exact solutions. Pagano [1] presented the exact solution for the cylindrical bending of laminated composite plates with general layups. The response of a thermoelastic laminated anisotropic plate in cylindrical bending was investigated analytically in [2, 3]. The developments for antisymmetric angle-ply laminates in the framework of 3D thermoelasticity were carried out in article [4]. However, the reliable 3D exact solutions for thermoelastic laminated composite plates of general lay-up configurations can not be found in the current literature.
To solve such a problem, we invoke the efficient method of SaS developed recently in articles [5 - 8] for the analysis of laminated composite plates and shells.
As SaS denoted here by Q(n)1, Q(n)2,..., Q(n)1n, we choose outer surfaces and any inner surfaces inside the nth layer of the plate and introduce temperatures T(n)1, T(n)2,..., T(n)1" and displacement vectors u(n)1, u(n)2,..., u(n)1" of these surfaces as basic plate variables, where I" is the total number of SaS chosen for each layer (1n > 3). Such choice of temperatures and displacements with the consequent use of Lagrange polynomials of degree 1n -1 in the thickness direction for each layer permits the representation of governing equations of the thermal laminated plate formulation in a very compact form. Note also that the origins of using the SaS can be found in contributions [9 - 14].
It should be mentioned that the developed approach with an arbitrary number of equally spaced SaS [5] does not work properly with the Lagrange polynomials of high
degree because the Runge's phenomenon can occur, which yields the wild oscillation at the edges of the interval when the user deals with any specific functions. If the number of equally spaced nodes is increased then the oscillations become even larger. However, the use of Chebyshev polynomial nodes [15] can help to improve significantly the behaviour of Lagrange polynomials of high degree for which the error will go to zero as In ^ This fact gives an opportunity to derive the 3D exact solutions for thermal laminated anisotropic plates with a prescribed accuracy employing the sufficiently large number of SaS located at Chebyshev polynomial nodes.
Description of temperature field
Consider a laminated plate of the thickness h. Let the middle surface Q be described by Cartesian coordinates x1 and x2. The coordinate x3 is oriented in the thickness direction. The transverse coordinates of SaS inside the nth layer are defined as
x(n)1 _ x[n 1]. x(n)In _ x[n].
= x
x(n)mn = ^ ( x[n-l] + x[n]
=4
]) -1 hn cosl n-2mn—— 2 n I 2(I„ - 2)
(1)
where x3n 1] and x3n] are the transverse coordinates of layer interfaces Q[n 1] and
Q[n] (Fig. 1); hn _ x3n] - x3n-1] is the thickness of the nth layer; In is the number of SaS corresponding to the nth layer; the index n identifies the belonging of any quantity to the nth layer and runs from 1 to N; N is the total number of layers; the index mn identifies the belonging of any quantity to the inner SaS of the nth layer and runs from 2 to In -1, whereas the indices in, jn, kn to be introduced later for describing all SaS of the nth layer run from 1 to In. Besides, the tensorial indices i, j, k, l range from 1 to 3 and Greek indices a, p range from 1 to 2.
It is worth noting that transverse coordinates of inner SaS (1) coincide with the coordinates of Chebyshev polynomial nodes [15]. This fact has a great meaning for a convergence of the SaS method [6 - 8].
The relation between the temperature T and the temperature gradient r is given by
r _ VT. (2)
Fig. 1. Geometry of the laminated plate
In a component form it can be written as
r = Tt, (3)
where the symbol (...)t stands for the partial derivatives with respect to coordinates
x.
We start now with the first assumption of the proposed thermoelastic laminated plate formulation. Let us assume that the temperature and temperature gradient fields are distributed through the thickness of the nth layer as follows:
T(n) = £L(")i"T(n)'n ; x3n-1] < x3 < x3n]; (4)
'n
r(n) = £ L(n)'n r(n)'n ; x3n_1] < x3 < x3n], (5)
'n
where T(n)'n (xb x2) are the temperatures of SaS of the nth layer Q(n)'n; r(n)'n (x1, x2) are the components of the temperature gradient at the same SaS; L(n)'n x) are the Lagrange polynomials of degree 1n _1 defined as:
T (n)'n = T (x3n)'n); (6)
r(n)'n = r (x3n)'n); (7)
x _ x(n)jn
LW" = n -""-¡¡J <8)
In *'n3 X3 The use of relations (3), (4), (6) and (7) yields:
n = T^'n • (9)
r3n)'n = £ M (n) Jn (x3n)'n )T(n) Jn, (10)
Jn
where M(n)Jn = L(nJn are the derivatives of Lagrange polynomials, which are calculated at SaS as follows:
/ \ , x(n)in - x(n)kn
M)= jxnnk п for ;
л3 л3 kn *ln > In 3 л3
M(n)'n (x3n)'n )= _ £M(n)Jn (x3n)'n ). (11)
Jn ^'n
It is seen from (10) that the transverse component of the temperature gradient r3n)'n is represented as a linear combination of temperatures of all SaS of the nth layer T(n) ■Jn.
Description of displacement and strain fields
The strain tensor is given by
2ej = U, j + uj,t, (12)
where ut are the displacements of the plate. In particular, the strain tensor at SaS of the nth layer Q(n)'n can be expressed as:
(n)'n = ap " 2eap (x3 ) n ) = u (n)'n ua,p + u (n)' n + u p , a
(n)in = 'a3 2ea3(x3 ) n ) = pan)'n + u (n)'n + u3,a
e(n)'n b33 = B33(x3n)'n ): =p3n)' n,
2e
(13)
where u(n)'n (x^ x2) are the displacements of SaS; p(n)'n (x1, x2) are the derivatives of displacements with respect to the thickness coordinate at SaS defined as:
u(n)'n = ut (x(3n)'"); (14)
P(n)i" = u',3( x3n)'"). (15)
The following step consists in a choice of the approximation of displacements and strains through the thickness of the nth layer. It is apparent that the displacement and strain distributions should be chosen similar to the thermal distributions (4) and (5). Thus, the second assumption of the developed thermoelastic laminated plate formulation can be written as:
u(n) = £L(n)'nu(n)'n; x3n-1] < x3 < x3n]; (16)
'n
J = £ L(n)'n J'n ; x3n-1] < x3 < x3n]. (17)
n
The use of (15) and (16) yields
p(n)'n = £M(n) jn (x3n)'n )u (n) jn, (18)
Jn
which is similar to (10). So, the key functions p(n)'n of the proposed plate formulation are represented as a linear combination of displacements of SaS of the nth layer u(n)Jn.
Variational formulation of heat conduction problem
The variational equation for the laminated plate can be written as
J = 0, (19)
where J is the basic functional of the heat conduction theory given by
Jn]

J = 2 jl£ i q(n)r(n)dxidx2dx3 -\\TQnda, (20)
Q. n y[n-1] Q

where q(n) are the components of the heat flux vector of the nth layer; Qn is the
specified heat flux on the boundary surface Q = Q[0] boundary surface of the plate.
Substituting the distribution (5) in functional (20) and introducing the heat flux resultants
[n]

R(n)'n = j q(n) L(n)'ndx3, (21)

one obtains
J = 2jll&(n)'nr(n)'n dxdx2 _\\TQndQ. (22)

Now, we accept the third assumption of the proposed thermal laminated plate formulation. Let the constitutive equations be the Fourier's heat conduction equations:
q(n) = _4n)r(n); x3n_1] < x3 < x3n], (23)
where kjn) are the components of the thermal conductivity tensor of the nth layer.
Inserting the constitutive equations (23) in (21) and taking into account the distribution (5), we have

Variational formulation of thermomechanical problem
The variational equation for the thermoelastic laminated plate in the case of conservative loading can be written as
5П = 0, (26)
where П is the basic functional of the theory of thermoelasticity given by:

0(n) is the temperature rise from the initial reference temperature T0 defined as
0(n) = T(n) _ T0. (29)
Substituting the strain distribution (17) and the temperature distribution:
0(n) = £L(n)'n&(n)'n ; x3n_1] < x3 < x3n], (30)
'n
which follows directly from relations (4) and (29) in the functional (27) and introducing the stress resultants
x[n] x3
H(j)in = ja(Jn) L(n)'ndx3 (31)
[n-1]
and the entropy resultants
S (n)in = Jn(n) L(n)indx3, (32)
one obtains

Finally, we introduce the fourth assumption of the proposed thermal laminated plate formulation. Let us consider the case of linear thermoelastic materials. Therefore, the constitutive equations [16] are written as follows:
4H) = CM? -Y?)0(n); x3n-1] < x3 < x3n]; (34)
n(n) = Y(n)s<n) + x(n)0(n) ; x3n-1] < x3 < x3n], (35)
where Cj] are the elastic constants of the nth layer; yn are the thermal stress
coefficients of the nth layer; x(n) is the entropy-temperature coefficient defined as
X(n) =P(n)cVn)l To, (36)
where p(n) and c^n) are the mass density and the specific heat per unit mass of the nth layer at constant strain.
Inserting the constitutive equations (34) and (35) correspondingly in (31) and (32) and taking into consideration the strain and temperature field distributions (17) and (30), we have:
H^n = £ A(n)injn 7 ¿n jn - y(j")0(n) 7 n ) ; (37)

3D exact solution for laminated anisotropic plates in cylindrical bending
In this section, we study a laminated anisotropic plate in cylindrical bending subjected to temperature loading. The boundary conditions for the simply supported plate whose edges are maintained at the reference temperature are written as
ct(1) = CT((2) = «3n) = ©(n) = 0 at x1 = 0 and x1 = a, (39)
where a is the width of the plate. To satisfy boundary conditions, we search the analytical solution of the problem by a method of Fourier series expansion:
,(n)in =£0(n)in sin^HL; (40)

Substituting the Fourier series (40) in (29) and using relations (9), (10), (22) and (24), one obtains

Invoking the variational equation (19), we arrive at the system of linear algebraic equations

of order K, where K = £ 1n _ N +1. Thus, the temperatures n of SaS of the nth

layer can be easily found by using a method of Gaussian elimination.
Inserting (40) and (41) and Fourier series corresponding to mechanical loading in (13), (18), (28), (33), (37) and (38), we have
n = £nr (M^n , ®(rn)l" ).

of order 3K. The linear system (45) is solved through a method of Gaussian elimination.
The described algorithm was performed with the Symbolic Math Toolbox, which incorporates symbolic computations into the numeric environment of MATLAB. This in turn gives the possibility to derive the exact solutions of thermoelasticity for laminated anisotropic plates in cylindrical bending with a specified accuracy.
As a numerical example, we consider a two-layer angle-ply plate with the stacking sequence [45/_45] and ply thicknesses h1 = h2 = h /2 made of the graphite-epoxy composite. The mechanical properties of the composite are taken as follows: EL = E0; Et = E0/10; Glt = E0/20; Gtt = E0/50; v lt =vtt = 0.25; aL =a0; aT = 7.2a0; kL = 100k0; kT = k0; p = 1800Kg/m3 and cv = 900 J/KgK, where
E0 = 2x1011Pa; a0 = 5x 10_61/K and k0 = 0.5 W/mK.
The plate is loaded on the top surface by the sinusoidally distributed temperature, while the bottom surface is maintained at the reference temperature, that is
q[ N ] = ©0sin nxi, Q[0] = 0, (46)
a
where 00 = 1K and T0 = 293K. To compare the results derived with an exact solution [3], we accept a = 1m and introduce dimensionless variables:

Fig. 2. Distributions of the temperature, heat flux, transverse stresses and entropy through the thickness of the angle-ply plate
The data listed in Table show that the SaS method permits the derivation of exact solutions of plane strain thermoelasticity for thick angle-ply plates a / h = 5 with a prescribed accuracy using the sufficient number of SaS. Fig. 2 presents the distributions of the temperature, heat flux, transverse stresses and entropy through the thickness of the plate for different values of the slenderness ratio a/h by choosing eleven SaS for each layer. As can be seen, the boundary conditions for the transverse stresses on outer surfaces and the continuity conditions for the heat flux and transverse stresses at a layer interface are satisfied exactly utilizing the constitutive equations (23) and (34).
Conclusions
An efficient method of solving the steady-state problems of 3D thermoelasticity for laminated orthotopic and anisotropic plates has been proposed. It is based on the new method of SaS located at Chebyshev polynomial nodes inside the layers and interfaces as well. The stress analysis of laminated plates is based on the 3D constitutive equations and gives an opportunity to obtain the 3D exact solutions of thermoelasticity for thick and thin cross-ply and angle-ply plates with a prescribed accuracy.
