This paper presents an effective formulation to study the response oflaminated composites based on isogeometric approach (IGA) and Carrera unifiedformulation (CUF). The IGA utilizes the non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS)functions which allows to construct higher order smooth functions with lesscomputational effort. The static bending and the free vibration of thin andmoderately thick laminates plates are studied. The present approach alsosuffers from shear locking when lower order functions are employed and theshear locking is suppressed by introducing a modification factor. Thecombination of the IGA with the CUF allows a very accurate prediction of thefield variables. The effectiveness of the formulation is demonstrated throughnumerical examples.
