| 内容記述 | The project involved the development of new analysis methods to achieve efficient design of composite structures. We developed a complex variational formulation to analyze the in-plane and bending coupling response of an unsymmetrically laminated plate with an elliptical cutout subjected to arbitrary edge loading as shown in Figure 1. This formulation utilizes four independent complex potentials that satisfy the coupled in-plane and bending equilibrium equations, thus eliminating the area integrals from the strain energy expression. The solution to a finite geometry laminate under arbitrary loading is obtained by minimizing the total potential energy function and solving for the unknown coefficients of the complex potentials. The validity of this approach is demonstrated by comparison with finite element analysis predictions for a laminate with an inclined elliptical cutout under bi-axial loading.The geometry and loading of this laminate with a lay-up of [-45/45] are shown in Figure 2. The deformed configuration shown in Figure 3 reflects the presence of bending-stretching coupling. The validity of the present method is established by comparing the out-of-plane deflections along the boundary of the elliptical cutout from the present approach with those of the finite element method. The comparison shown in Figure 4 indicates remarkable agreement. The details of this method are described in a manuscript by Madenci et al. (1998). |
