Abstract
A novel methodology for the design of optimal uncoupled laminated plates under membrane only or bending only loading is introduced. This approach is supported by the polar representation of anisotropy. First, topology optimization, aimed at maximizing global stiffness of the structure, allows to find an optimal distribution of polar components. Then, based on the latter structural results, a matching feasible lamination sequence is determined.
