Elasticity Solutions for Fiber-Reinforced Polymeric Composite Laminates.
Abstract
The objective of this program is the determination of the state of stress in laminated, rectangular plates in which the individual plies are composed of fiber-reinforced, polymeric material. Both static and dynamic loads are to be considered. The starting point for the analysis is the three-dimensional theory of elasticity. The continuity conditions between plies are taken into account by means of an integral formulation of three-dimensional stress function theory. When the number of laminations is very large, a Correspondence Principle has been derived which relates the stress state in the laminated plate to that in a corresponding, homogeneous, anisotropic plate. For unsymmetrically laminated plates, equations governing the coupled bending and stretching deformation have been derived.
