In the present paper, a comprehensive study is made on effects of the viscoelastic and the phase-transformation-based dissipations and their interactions on impact responses of viscoelastic composite plates with damping treated (structural hierarchy) shape memory alloy (SMA) wires, for the first time. In contrast to almost all of the available researches, a high-order hyperbolic plate theory that includes not only odd but also even functions of the transverse coordinate, is proposed and employed here. While a hierarchical viscoelastic constitutive law is employed for both the orthotropic and SMA materials, Brinson's constitutive law is refined to include the loading fluctuations and structural hierarchy of the SMA wire, simultaneously. The traditional Hertz and Yang-Sun contact laws are modified accordingly. The resulting highly nonlinear piecewise-defined integro-differential finite element governing equations are solved by an iterative algorithm within each time step. The presented discussions show that in contrast to the common belief, the zero-shear traction condition on the top and bottom surfaces of the viscoelastic orthotropic plate cannot be satisfied by the available plate theories, even for the symmetric lamination schemes. Results show that the viscoelasticity and phase-transformation effects on the resulting dynamic responses are more pronounced for the low and high energy impacts, respectively.
