Master Laminates to Simplify Design, Manufacturing, and Testing of Composites

12 Dec 2022 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Stephen W Tsai

Composite materials and structures have traditionally been viewed as more complicated than metals. With master stiffness and failure envelopes composites are as simple as metals. Stiffness of laminates can be split into two part: one for trace that represents the total stiffness capacity; one for...

Mathematical Construction of a Reissner–Mindlin Plate Theory for Composite Laminates

03 Jun 2015 | Publications | Contributor(s): Wenbin Yu

A Reissner–Mindlin theory for composite laminates without invoking ad hoc kinematic assumptions is constructed using the variational-asymptotic method. Instead of assuming a priori the distribution of three-dimensional displacements in terms of two-dimensional plate displacements as what is...
