In this paper, the authors study periodic vibrations of variable stiffness composite laminates excited by a harmonic force. The plates have geometrical imperfection in the form of various sinusoidal out-of-plane initial deflections associated with zero stress. The angle of the curvilinear fibre path is introduced as a function of the horizontal Cartesian coordinate. The theory used to extract equations of motion for VSCLs is a third order shear deformation theory that retains rotary inertia. The relations of von Kármán for elastic large deflection are used. A p-version finite element is employed and, to find the solution of the equations of motion, the shooting method is applied; frequency response curves are obtained. Static condensation and a modal summation method are applied to reduce the number of degrees of freedom. A damage analysis based on Tsai-Wu criterion is carried out during the studies on vibration. The effects of curvilinear fibres and the influence of modal interactions on the vibration of imperfect VSCLs are investigated. The stability of the periodic solutions is determined by applying Floquet's theory. The effect of geometric imperfections on the vibrational behaviour is studied.
