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...

MSC.Patran/Nastran-SwiftComp GUI
01 Apr 2019
A graphical user interface (GUI) has been developed to integrate SwiftComp into MSC.Patran/Nastran for constitutive modeling and providing the automated conversion of the MSG plate and beam stiffness matrix into MSC.Nastran shell and beam element properties and materials. In order to reduce...

Structure Genome: Fill the Gap between Materials Genome and Structural Analysis
29 Nov 2014
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...

Variational Asymptotic Modeling of Composite Dimensionally Reducible Structures
09 Nov 2014 | Publications
This is Prof. Yu's PhD dissertation. In this disseration, the variational asymptotic method has be used to provide a systematic, holistic, and rigorous approach to construct efficient yet accurate models for composite beams, plates, and shells.
