  • Three-dimensional, nonlinear viscoelastic analysis of laminated composites : a finite element approach

    Creator:
    Wang, Min
    Abstract:
    Polymeric composites exhibit time-dependent behavior, which raises a concern about their long term durability and leads to a viscoelastic study of these materials. Linear viscoelastic analysis has been found to be inadequate because many polymers exhibit nonlinear viscoelastic behavior. Classical laminate theory is commonly used in the study of laminated...

  • Failure analysis of pre-notched composite laminated plates under four-point bending conditions

    Creator:
    Arias Gonzales, Sergio
    Abstract:
    Ever since composite laminate technology was introduced into the aerospace and automotive industry, there has been a need to fully understand the damage progression experienced by composite laminated plates in the presence of a notch. While numerous research studies have been conducted on this matter when subjected to in-plane loads,...
