Analysis of Dynamic Interlaminar Stresses in Antisymmetric Angle-ply Composite Laminated Plates
One of the main causes of failure of composite laminated structures is delamination damage, which is significantly derived from interlaminar stresses [1]. Analytical solution of a first-order shear deformation theory is developed to study...
Analytical Determination of Free Edge Stresses in Composite Laminates with Piezoelectric Layers
This paper presents an analytical solution to determine the interlaminar stresses at the free edges of symmetric cross-ply laminates with piezoelectric layers. The threedimensional constitutive equations of piezoelectricity are considered and a set...
Interlaminar stresses in thick cylindrical shell with arbitrary laminations and boundary conditions under transverse loads
In this study, based on three-dimensional multi-term extended Kantorovich method (3DMTEKM), an
