“…The quasi-3D plates theory was also used to analyse the mechanical behavior of FG-GPLRC rectangular plates. 50,51 For the spherical caps, based on the FSDT and Galerkin method, the nonlinear dynamic responses of the porous core sandwich FG-GPLRC shell were reported by Anh et al 52 For FG-CNTRC plates, the postbuckling behavior and dynamic responses of rectangular and skew plates were studied using the FSDT, 53,54 and using the HSDT 55 By using the self-consistent model, the degraded stiffness of cracked layers was predicted, and the multilayer composite plates and shells containing CNTRC layers and matrix cracked fiber reinforced composite layers were considered. [56][57][58] It can be seen, in comparison with the rectangular plate, cylindrical panel, or cylindrical shell, only less number of studies of the spherical caps and circular plates can be observed.…”
