• CLT predicts ply stresses that are linear across the thickness

• With the constitutive equations of each ply in the laminate axis (x-
y), the integration can be replaced by a sum of integrals (for each
ply k), and hence this becomes : z

!!! Difference of squares = square of difference !!! Hence: position dependent !!!
• We can now write the forces and moments as a function of the mid-
surface deformations in the following matrix notation :

• This is not true for the coupling and bending stiffness [B] and [D],
because they depend on differences of squares/cubes of positions z!
