A layerwise theory is used to investigate analytically the interlaminar stresses near the free edges of general cross-ply composite laminates under uniform axial extension.Laminates with finite dimensions are considered and full three...

Multi-objective optimal design of sandwich composite laminates consisting of high stiffness and expensive surface layers and low-stiffness and inexpensive core layer is addressed in this paper. The object is to determine ply angles and number...

An analytical solution of dynamic response of thick cross-ply laminated plates, based on the full layerwise theory, is presented in this paper. Analytical solutions are determined by a simple but efficient method which ...

Multi objective optimal design of sandwich composite laminates consisting of high- stiffness and expensive surface and low-stiffness and inexpensive core layers with respect to cost and frequency is addressed in this paper. Discrete ply angles...

In this article heat transfer in composite laminates is being

investigated, by using separation of variables method and

an analytical relation for temperature distribution in these

laminates has been obtained under specific boundary conditions...

-ply composite laminates. The results obtained from this theory are compared with those available in the literature. It is found that the theory can predict very accurately the stresses in the interior region and near the free edges of composite laminates....

This paper presents an exact analytical solution for unsteady conductive heat transfer in a

cylindrical multilayer composite laminate. Here, it is supposed that fibers have been wound

around the cylinder in each lamina. In order...
