Interlaminar Stresses in Symmetric Angle-Ply Laminates Subjected to Anticlastic Bending Deformation
04 Jun 2014
The aim of the present work is to develop a solution for the interlaminar stress field in a symmetric and balanced, angle-ply laminate subjected to anticlastic bending deformation. Further, this class of problems is considered in order to elucidate the behavior of angle-ply laminates...

Structure Genome: Fill the Gap between Materials Genome and Structural Analysis
28 May 2014 | Publications
A new concept, Structure Genome (SG), is proposed to fill the gap between materials genome and structural analysis. SG acts as the basic building block of the structure connecting materials to structures and the mechanics of SG governs the necessary information to link materials genome and...
