An approximate method is presented to investigate Mgy the interlaminar stresses near the free edges of composite N laminate plates that are subjected to a combined NI~ thermo-mechanical loading. The method is based upon N~ admissible function representations of stresses which account Q!~) for the effects of both the global mismatches and the local ,~!k/ mismatches in two of the elastic properti...

This paper presents buckling studies made on skew plates using finite element. The effects of the skew angle, aspect ratio, length-to-thickness-ratio, fibre orientation angle, and numbers of layers in the laminate and laminate sequence on the critical buckling load factor (Kcr) of antisymmetric composite laminates have also been presented. The critical buckling load factor (Kcr) is found to inc...

The insect cuticle is a typical natural composite with excellent strength, stiffness, and fracture toughness. Scanning electron microscope observation of the microstructure of Hydrophilidae (an insect) cuticle showed several unique plies and structural characteristics, which may provide available information to the design of advanced composites. The microstructure found in the vicinity of pore ...

Exposing a laminate structure to thermal cycles and to temperatures close to the curing temperature, followed by mechanical fatigue, cause interlaminar and intralaminar cracks leading to degradation of the mechanical properties. The effect of thermal and mechanical fatigue, as well as thermal aging, on carbon fiber composite laminate structures is under study in the present paper.

 Estetik dental tedavilerde hastaların beklenti ve gereksinimleri günden güne artmaktadır. Dental estetik, kaybettikleri estetik görüntünün yeniden kazandırılmasında son derece önemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Hasta beklentilerinin bu denli yüksek olması, hekimleri daha materyaller kullanmaya hassas tedavi uygulamalarına itmektedir. veneerler hastalara görüntüyü kazandırma no...

We investigate the cyclic behavior of laminate microstructures in finite-strain crystal plasticity and the resulting stress-strain response, based on a variational, incremental description of the microstructure evolution. The nonconvex free energy density in multiplicative singleand multi-slip plasticity gives rise to the formation of fine-scale deformation structures, experimentally observed a...

The penetration of a 30CrMnMo ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene armor by a high-speed fragment was investigated via experiments and simulations. Analysis of the projectile revealed that the nose (of the projectile) is in the non-equilibrium state at the initial stage of penetration, and the low-speed regions undergo plastic deformation. Subsequently, the nose-tail velocities of the proje...
