A note on the elastic and geometric bounds for composite laminates
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper it is shown that a laminate composed of identical anisotropic layers, like for instance composite plies, cannot reach all the possible elastic states that are allowed by the classical elastic bounds on anisotropic constants. The analysis is carried on and facilitated by the use of particular tensor invariants, the so-called polar parameters.

متن کاملBuckling of Laminates with Multiple Through-the-Width Delaminations Using Spring Simulation Model
Delamination is one of the most common failure modes in composite structures. In particular, when the laminated composites are subjected to compressive loads, delamination becomes a constraint in the design process. In this study, the system is modeled as a plate supported by an elastic foundation. The elastic adhesive layer between the buckled sublaminates is represented by some parallel sprin...

The main purpose of this note is to establish some bounds in Poisson approximation for row-wise arrays of independent geometric distributed random variables using the operator method. Some results related to random sums of independent geometric distributed random variables are also investigated.
متن کاملCompressive Behavior of a Glass/Epoxy Composite Laminates with Single Delamination
The buckling and postbuckling behaviors of a composite beam with single delamination are investigated. A three-dimensional finite element model using the commercial code ANSYS is employed for this purpose. The finite elements analyses have been performed using a linear buckling model based on the solution of the eigenvalues problem, and a non-linear one based on an incremental-iterative method....

In this study, static and free vibration analyses of functionally graded (FG) nanocomposite plates, reinforced by wavy single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) resting on a Pasternak elastic foundation, were investigated based on a mesh-free method and modified first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). Three linear types of FG nanocomposite plate distributions and a uniform distribution of wa...
