“…A significant number of research studies (Hosseini et al, 2014;, 2018a, 2018b has been done using isogeometric analysis for numerical analysis of laminated composites. Many researchers (Kulkarni et al, 2015;Xu et al, 2018;Wu et al, 2005Wu et al, , 2017Zhen and Wanji, 2008;Sori c and Smojver, 1995;Cagdas and Adali, 2012;Mahapatra et al, 2016) have worked on analysis of laminated composite shells.…”
