Abstract (EN): Nonlocal elasticity is becoming more and more popular due to the introduction of advanced constituents and the need of a peculiar approach able to capture size-dependent effects. Strain gradient theory falls within this aim, and it is included into the thin plate formulation in the current paper. Following the procedure developed in Bacciocchi et al. (2020, 2021), a finite element model based on higher-order Hermite interpolating functions is used here to evaluate the mechanical behavior of laminated composite square plates with holes. These peculiar configurations cannot be solved analytically.
