        abstract = {The purpose of this paper is to offer a semi-analytical extended Kantorovich technique for the buckling analysis of symmetrically laminated rectangular plates with general boundary conditions. The solution is generated as a multi-function expansion that enables the analysis of laminated plates that are characterized by a solution that cannot be separated. Shear buckling of any form of plate and buckling of angle-ply laminates under inplane compression are the two types of buckling that occur the most often among these. Both the iterative extended Kantorovich approach and the variational principle of total energy reduction serve as the foundation for the formulation. In order to solve the differential eigenvalue issue that was produced as a consequence, the exact element technique was chosen as the approach to use. The numerical demonstration of the capabilities of the suggested methodology and its application to the buckling analysis of composite laminated plates, which cannot be examined using the traditional single-term extended Kantorovich method, is shown here. There is a comparison made between the findings and precise answers (in cases where they are available) as well as approximate results from other numerical approaches. Discussion is also held over the correctness and convergence of the technique that has been suggested.},
