On the optimization of composite laminated plates
Engineering Computations, 1995This paper deals with the optimum design of composite laminated plates. Both ply orientation angles and ply thicknesses of the composite plate are used as design variables. The optimum design process is divided into two sublevels. In the first sublevel, the strain energy of the plate is minimized by changing the ply orientation angles while the ply ...

Bending of Laminated Composite Plates
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2015In this work, there are presented overviews of theoretical and numerical models for defining the stress-strain state in the cross section of moderately thick and thick composite plates in case of bending. Layered composite plates are constructed by combination of layers of various materials and geometrical characteristics, wherein each of them has got ...

Buckling Behavior of Laminated Composite Plates
Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, 2007In this study, the influence of boundary conditions on the buckling load for rectangular plates of various cutout shape, length/thickness ratio, and ply orientation is examined. Boundary conditions consisting of clamped, pinned, and their combinations are considered. Numerical and experimental studies are conducted to investigate the effect of boundary

Optimum Design of Laminated Composite Plates Using Lamination Parameters
AIAA Journal, 1991When laminated composite plates are symmetric and orthotropic, their in-plane and flexural stiffnesses become the functions of the lamination parameters that are the functions of their stacking sequences. We use the lamination parameters as fundamental design variables in designing laminates. The feasible region of the lamination parameters is obtained

VARIABLE KINEMATIC MODELLING OF LAMINATED COMPOSITE PLATES
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, 1996A displacement-based variable kinematic global-local finite element model is developed using hierarchical, multiple assumed displacement fields at two different levels: (1) at the element level, and (2) at the mesh level. The displacement field hierarchy contains both a conventional two-dimensional plate expansion and a full layerwise three-dimensional

A Composite Plate Theory for Arbitrary Laminate Configurations
Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1987In order to improve the accuracy of in-plane responses of shear deformable composite plate theories, a new laminated plate theory was developed for arbitrary laminate configurations based upon Reissner’s (1984) new mixed variational principle. To this end, across each individual layer, piecewise linear continuous displacements and quadratic transverse ...

The behaviour of laminated composite plates as armour
Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 1997Abstract A combined experimental and semi-empirical investigation of the penetration resistance of fibreglass reinforced plastic plates under ballistic impact has been undertaken, the ballistic tests being carried out using 7.62 mm armour-piercing rounds. In parallel, a slow penetration test using a fabricated bullet profile was carried out to enable

On the Plating of Reinforced Concrete Beams with Composite Laminates
2004This paper deals with the formulation of a one-dimensional mechanical model for studying the statical behaviour of a RC beam strengthened with Fibre-Reinforced Polymers (FRP) plates. Some numerical results obtained via finite ele¬ment method (FEM) are also given and show the efficiency of the proposed model in evaluating the stresses distributions at ...
