Army Research Office Workshop on Dynamic Response of Composite Structures Held in New Orleans, Louisiana on August 30-September 1, 1993

Abstract

The purpose of the workshop was to: (1) Assess the state of the art in the modeling and analysis of modern composite structures that are relevant to the Army's need to improve the design and operation of land vehicles, helicopters, weapon systems, etc; and (2) Identify new opportunities for relevant research. The special areas of interest were crash worthiness of composite structures, composite helicopter rotor blade dynamics, stability and control, smart composite structures, etc. The workshop contained six keynote and distinguished lectures and 34 lectures for a total of 40 paper presentations. The regular sessions include (1) Vibration of Composite Structures, (2) Smart Structures, (3) Impact of Composite Structures, (4) Damage and Failure, (5) Design of Composite Structures, and (6) Structural Mechanics.
