Symmetrically laminated cross-ply and angle-ply skew plates subject to uniaxial buckling loads and various combinations of in-plane boundary restraints are studied using a shear deformable theory. For this purpose a finite element code is developed and applied to a couple of verification problems. The formulation of the parabolic iso-parametric plate element is briefly given and numerical results obtained for the verification problems related to stability analysis and stress diffusion are presented. The effect of in-plane restraints on the non-uniform distribution of in-plane stresses is studied by means of contour graphs. Next the buckling loads are maximized with respect to layer thicknesses in the case of cross-ply laminates and with respect to fiber orientations in the case of angle-ply laminates. The optimization results show that the exclusion of the in-plane restraints, which arise in several engineering applications, may lead to errors in the stability analysis and consequently in the design of laminated plates against buckling.
