Unsymmetric Laminated Graphite/Epoxy Composite Plate and Beam Analysis for Determining Coefficients of Thermal Expansion.

Abstract

This thesis investigates the properties of unsymmetrically stacked layers of composite plies, in particular their thermal behavior. Starting with simple stress-strain relationship, the underlying governing equations were developed. These were tested experimentally. (Author)
