Abstract: In the present work, a new displacement-based Equivalent Single Layer (ESL) plate theory has been developed using the Variational Asymptotic Method (VAM) and the principle of isoenergetics. In contrast to the existing assumption-based ESL plate theories, the proposed VAM-based plate theory is devoid of any presuppositions. The VAM decouples the 3D plate problem into a 1D through the thickness analysis and a 2D planar problem. Closed form solutions have been obtained for the 1D problem in terms of 2D displacement variables and their higher-order derivatives. The complexity involving higher-order derivatives of 2D displacement variables has been simplified through the isoenergetic principle ensuring a similar rate of convergence for strains as well as displacements. Solutions for various field variables have been compared against the benchmark problems available in the literature and 3D FEA. These comparisons demonstrate the accuracy, efficiency, and versatility of the present methodology. Key contributions of the present work are (a) First principles-based derivation of the reduced-order 2D plate model from the 3D model energy. (b) The plane stress condition as well as the quadratic variation of transverse shear stress and strain are natural outcomes of the present mathematical framework. (c) This leads to zero tangential traction boundary conditions on the plate surface. (d) The effectiveness of capturing higher-order behavior at lower-order results in simplified analysis, reduced computational complexity and increased efficiency. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
