When laminated composites are subjected to impact loading, the material response is critically determined by the interactions of multiple waves generated at the laminate interfaces. Due to the high complexity arising from the architectural details of composites, layered heterogeneous materials have been studied as the model system to understand the impact behavior of engineering composites. Pre...

In this paper, deformations of a laminated composite plate due to mechanical loads are presented. Third order shear deformation theory of plates, which is categorized in equivalent single layer theories, is used to derive linear dynamic equations of a rectangular multi-layered composite plate. Moreover, derivation of equations for FEM and numerical solutions for displacements and stress distrib...

Abstract—Stoneley waves are interface waves that propagate at the interface between two solid media. In this study, the dispersion characteristics and wave structures of Stoneley waves in elastic multilayered plates are displayed and investigated. With a perspective of bulk wave, a reasonable assumption of the potential function forms of the expansion wave and shear wave in nth layer medium is ...

in this paper, single, bi-layered and three-layered tube hydroforming processes were numerically simulated using the finite element method. it was found that the final bulges heights resulted from the models were in good agreement with the experimental results. three types of modeling were kept with the same geometry, tube material and process parameters to be compared between the obtained hydr...

An accurate estimate of interfacial stresses in multi-layered microelectronic packaging is very important for design and prediction of delamination-related failures. An analytical model for stress analysis of multi-layered stacks, which is based on an extension of Valisetty s model (Bending of Beams, Plates and Laminates: Refined Theories and Comparative Studies, Ph.D. thesis, Georgia Institute...

Electrospun polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) ultrathin layer chromatographic (UTLC) plates were fabricated using in situ crosslinking electrospinning technique. The value of these ULTC plates were characterized using the separation of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) labeled amino acids and the separation of amino acids followed visualization using ninhydrin. The in situ crosslinked electrospun PVA pla...
