Anisotropic Curved Panel Analysis,
Abstract
An analysis of laminated composite cylindrically curved shells has been formulated and incorporated into digital computer procedure SS8. Many discrete effects were considered, including ring and stringer stiffening, by implementing a Rayleigh Ritz energy analysis. The procedure solves static deflection, buckling, and natural frequency problems. The results of an extensive experimental program for graphite epoxy and boron epoxy shells are included.
