Kywords : Fnt lmnt, Compost bams, Pzoltr layrs, Sns modl, ransvrs strss.. INRODUCION In th past tn yars, smart strtrs hav attratd sgnfant attnton of many rsarhrs n th fld of atv ontrol and dynam. By dvlopng smart strtrs, pzoltr matrals hav bn sd xtnsvly as dstrbtd snsors and atators. h opld ltromhanal proprts of pzoltr matrals and thr lghtnss mak thm stabl for s n advand smart strtrs. A pzoltr matral gnrats an ltral harg whn sbjtd to a mhanal dformaton (drt pzoltr fft), and onvrsly, th pzoltr matral dforms whn sbjtd to an ltral fld (nvrs pzoltr fft). hrfor, pzoltr matrals ar apabl of atng as dstrbtd snsors and atators. Varos mathmatal modls hav bn prsntd to prdt th bhavor of strtrs ontanng pzoltr snsors and atators. hs modls an b lassfd nto two broad grops: Indd stran modls and opld ltromhanal modls. In th ndd stran modls, approxmat thors hav bn mployd to norporat th pzoltr ffts [-4]. In ths modls, th ltr potntal s ngltd as a stat varabl n th formlaton. Howvr, th ndd stran modls nontr lmtatons that ars from th s of for approxmaton to rprsnt th pzoltr strans. hs approxmat rprsntaton s not abl to aptr th opld mhanal and ltral rspons and lmts ths modls only n prdtng th atator bhavor of pzoltr matrals. h opld ltromhanal modls ar abl to prdt both th snsor and atator bhavor of pzoltr matrals, d to norporaton both th dsplamnts and ltr potntal as stat varabls n th formlaton. W and hs ollags sd an analytal approah to obtan thr-dmnsonal (3D) xat soltons of mltlayrd pzoltr plats/shlls. h formlaton of ths rsarhrs s basd on 3D pzoltrty and th mthod of prtrbaton has bn sd n thr drvatons [5-7].

[], Gara Lag t al. [,3], Hylgr and Saravanos [4], and Saravanos t al. [5]. In spt of th fat that layr-ws thors mprov th omptatonal ffny, n ths mthods th nmbr of nknowns ar dpndnt on th nmbr of layrs. So, layr-ws thors ar also rathr xpnsv approahs. In ordr to ovrom ths lmtatons, th onpt of mxd thory was prsntd [6,7]. In ths thory, th modlng of mhanal omponnts s basd on sngl layr plat thory whras ltr potntal s modld wth layr-ws thory. Bas of sng sngl layr thory for mhanal omponnts n mxd thory, th nmbr of nknowns s ndpndnt of th nmbr of layrs. Bas of xprssng th varaton of dsplamnt omponnts throgh th thknss by ontnos fntons, all th stran omponnts obtand from sngl layr thory ar ontnos and all th strss omponnts ar dsontnos at th layr ntrfas. In a lamnatd strtr, n-plan strans and ot of plan strsss ar ontnos at th layr ntrfas whras n-plan strsss and ot of plan strans ar dsontnos [8-]. hrfor, sngl layr thory s not abl to modl th bhavor of a ompost strtr proprly. In ordr to ovrom th drawbak of sngl layr thory, th da of rfnd thory was prsntd by rsarhrs [,]. Frst, rfnd frst-ordr shar dformaton thory (RFSD) was prsntd. In RFSD, th varaton of n-plan dsplamnt throgh th thknss of plat s p-ws lnar whl transvrs dsplamnt s onstant aross th thknss. Bhaskar and Varadan [3], D Sva [4], L and L [5], Parmrtr and Cho [6] ombnd th onpts of RFSD and hgh shar dformaton thory (thrd-ordr SD) of Rddy [7] to dvlop a nw lass of rfnd thory dfnd as rfnd hghr ordr shar dformaton thory (RHSD). In RHSD, th transvrs shar strsss ar ontnos at th layr ntrfas and hav a p-ws parabol varaton aross th lamnat thknss. h transvrs strsss ontnty nsrs dsontnty of transvrs strans at th ntrfa of two layrs whh hav dffrnt rgdty. Morovr, th transvrs shar strsss satsfy th bondary ondtons on th ppr and lowr srfas. Dstrbton of potntal ltr n pzoltr layrs (atators and/or snsors) s rprsntd by th sal layr-ws thory. In ths stdy a nw lmnt has bn proposd that has th sam nmbr of mhanal and ltral dgr of frdom wth mxd modl of Ch t al. [8]. In omparson to thr mxd modl, or proposd formlaton nsrs ontnty rqrmnts of th transvrs shar strsss. In or nw modl, th varaton of mhanal dsplamnt aross th thknss s basd on a sns modl [9]. hs modl satsfs fr ondton of th transvrs shar strsss on th top and bottom srfas of bam as wll as ontnty ondton of th transvrs shar strsss at th layr ntrfas. It has only thr ndpndnt gnralzd dsplamnts: wo dsplamnts and on rotaton. It has C ontnty xpt for th transvrs dsplamnt assoatd wth bndng whh has C. Conrnng th ltr potntal, th throgh thknss varaton s modld by th sal layr-ws thory. A omptr od whos algorthm s basd on th prsntd modl has bn dvlopd.
