In this dissertation, the bending behavior of moderately thick laminated composite and single layer isotropic plates with different geometries and boundary conditions based on the kashida; TEXT-ALIGN: justify; TEXT-KASHIDA: 0%; TEXT-INDENT: 0.2in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; unicode-bidi: embed; DIRECTION: ltr; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; mso-layout-grid-align: none" Most of the meshless methods consist of two main parts: use of appropriate interpolation functions and, the formulation employed for satisfaction of the governing equations. The meshless methods use exponential basis functions, however, the formulation of each method is different from the others. These methods neither need numerical integration nor need mesh of element, These features lead to speed up of the calculations. another advantage of these methods is their ability to solve problems with internal borders. To demonstrate the accuracy and the efficiency of the methods used in this thesis, the solution of various problems, such as isotropic and laminated composite plates with different shapes and boundary conditions, has been presented. The numerical results of these analyses have been compared with those of the exact solutions (if available) for each theory used. The results have been also compared with those found by other researches and those obtained from 2D and 3D finite element analysis.
