The geometrically nonlinear analysis of laminated composite rectangular plates is studied using the hierarchical finite element method. The derivation of the equilibrium equations and tangential stiffness matrix are given. Symbolic computation is used to calculate the high-order polynomial integrals needed to establish the stiffness matrices. The Newton-Raphson method is used in the iterative procedure. The convergence property and the numerical stability of the method are discussed.
