Plasticity Analysis of Laminated Composite Plates

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1982
Elastic-plastic behavior of symmetric metal-matrix composite laminates is analyzed for the case of in-plane mechanical loading. The overall response of the laminate at each instant is derived from the elastic-plastic deformation of the individual fibrous layers, and from their mutual constraints.

Dynamic Response of Laminated Composite Plates

AIAA Journal, 1975
HE classical method of separation of variables combined with the Mindlin-Goodman procedure1 is employed to analyze the dynamic response of an infinitely long simplysupported composite plate under a uniform dynamic pressure, P0, on the upper surface of the plate.

Verification of Laminated Plate Theory for Unsymmetrical Laminates

Journal of Composite Materials, 1991
It is shown that the current experimental methods used in the verification of Laminated Plate Theory have not adequately included the coupling deformations existing in unsymmetrical laminated composites. The importance of these coupling deformations is demonstrated on a 0/90 laminated strip.

Damping Characteristics of Laminated Thick Plates

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1997
We develop the analysis for the exact three-dimensional viscoelastic solution for simply supported, thick multilayered composite plate strips. Each layer is assumed to possess monoclinic or higher material symmetry and to be perfectly bonded to adjacent layers.

Delamination of Laminate Plates

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
The paper deals with numerical modeling of delamination of laminate plate consists of unidirectional fiber reinforced layers. The methodology adopts the first-order shear laminate plate theory and fracture and contact mechanics. There are described sublaminate modeling and delamination modeling by the help of finite element analysis. With the interface

Evolution of the Theory of Laminated Plates and Shells

International Applied Mechanics, 2002
Summary: The authors consider the development of the theory of laminated plates and shells. Three-dimensional models of laminated systems are discussed as well as the methods of their reduction to the two-dimensional models. The construction of two-dimensional models via the method of hypotheses is analyzed.

Edge Vibrations in Laminated Composite Plates

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1985
Plane strain edge vibrations or end modes in laminated composite plates are investigated by means of finite elements. This method is capable of modeling the behavior of any laminate construction whose properties are completely anisotropic within the plane. Two eigenvalue problems involving nonsymmetric matrices are derived.

Optimum Design of Laminated Composite Plates Using Lamination Parameters

AIAA Journal, 1991
When 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

Edge Effects in Laminated Composite Plates

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1982
The attenuation of self-equilibrated edge stress states into the interior of a laminated plate composed of an arbitrary number of bonded, elastic, anisotropic layers is investigated in the context of Saint-Venant’s principle using the exponential decay results of Toupin, Knowles, and Horgan.
