This paper deals with the nonlinear dynamic buckling of laminated composite rectangular plates subjected to uniform time-dependent in-plane temperature-induced loading. The dynamic post-buckling deflection response is obtained and dynamic critical temperatures are estimated. The nonlinear governing equations of motion are solved analytically using fast Chebyshev series technique. The numerical results for CCCC, CCCS, CCSS, CSCS, CSSS and SSSS boundary conditions are presented.
