Thermal Response in Laminated Composites
ZAMM - Journal of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics / Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, 1975AbstractA semi‐infinite laminated composite in which the matrix and filler material are aligned parallel to the heat propagation direction is considered. At x = 0, there is applied a harmonic boundary heat flux of y‐periodicity conforming to the periodicity of the layered composite. The Fourier integral solution is decomposed into normal modes.

Stress Fields in Composite Laminates
International Journal of Solids and Structures, 1978A new theory is proposed to define the complete stress field within an arbitrary composite laminate. The theory is based upon an extension of Reissner’s variational principle to laminated bodies. Weaknesses in previous laminate theories are discussed and it is demonstrated how these are overcome in the present formulation.

Acoustic Emission in Composite Laminates
Journal of Nondestructive Evaluation, 1998The response of a laminated plate to internal acoustic emission events is examined in detail. The plate consists of four layers of a unidirectional fiber composite material arranged in a cross-ply configuration. The sources considered include a vertical line couple, a horizontal line couple and a line double couple without moment.

Laminate theory: macroanalyses of composite laminates
1993It has been shown in chapter 2 that composite materials are manufactured as laminates, consequently in analysing the lamina, the primary aim is to obtain predictions of the average behaviour of the composite from the properties of the components. From the point of view of the mechanical properties of the composite lamina, the area of interest to the ...

Strength of composites repaired by laminating with dissimilar composites
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1988D efective composite restorations are usually replaced by completely removing the existing material. However, certain clinical conditions may make it advisable to remove only a portion of the existing restoration before the addition of new material. For example, this technique might be preferred if the existing restoration is near the pulp, retained by

Non-conventional Composite Laminates – Clutch Laminates
American Society for Composites 2017, 2017This paper presents the design and manufacturing of novel non-conventional woven composite laminates coined as clutch laminates. Carbon/epoxy clutch laminates are manufactured using prepreg slit tape in an automated fiber placement (AFP) machine. The AFP process allows tailoring the material architecture resulting in innovative structures without the ...

Compression failure of composite laminates
2016This chapter describes the application of a cohesive zone model to estimate the open-hole compressive (OHC) strength of composite laminates and to study the level-ply scaling effect on notch sensitivity. The modeling strategy is to replace the inelastic deformation associated with plasticity or microbuckling with a line crack and to assume some form of

INTELLIGENT TAILORING OF COMPOSITE LAMINATES
Carbon, 1989Abstract A number of major failure modes in epoxy-matrix composites are reviewed including free edge opening mode delamination, free edge interlaminar shear controlled laminate failure, and impact damage. Methods for suppressing these failure modes through various laminate tailoring techniques are discussed.

Optimization of Composite Laminates
1993Design of composite structures can be viewed as a multi-faceted task, one which requires integration of issues related to composite mechanics, structural analysis, optimization, and manufacturing. The major coverage of the paper is on the issue of optimization, with special emphasis on the use of optimization for designing with discrete and integer ...
