Static Solution of Two-Dimensional Piezoelectric Quasicrystal Laminates with Simply Supported on Opposite Sides

The static solution of quasicrystal laminates is generally applied by the pseudo-Stroh method and the state space method, which are limited to solve the boundary conditions of simply supported on four sides and difficult to solve for complex boundary conditions. In this paper, a new method, namely the state-space differential quadrature method which is a combination of the state-space method and the differential quadrature method, is developed to deal with complex boundary conditions and solves the static solution of the quasicrystal laminated plate under the simply supported on opposite sides and the other two with arbitrary boundary conditions. By applying different loadings, using different stacking sequences and boundary conditions, the static solution of the two-dimensional decagonal piezoelectric quasicrystal laminates is investigated.
