The dynamic response of symmetric cross-ply and angle-ply composite laminated plates under impact loads is investigated using a higher order shear deformation theory. A modified Hertz law is used to predict the impact loads and a four node finite element is used to model the plate. By using a higher order shear deformation theory, the out-of-plane shear stresses, which can be a crucial factor in the failure of composite plates, are determined with significant accuracy. The results compared with previous investigations showed good agreement. The effect of ply sequence and ply angle on the contact force is also studied.

This paper deals with nonlinear asymmetric dynamic buckling of clamped laminated angle-ply composite spherical shells under suddenly applied pressure loads. The formulation is based on first-order shear deformation theory and Lagrange's equation of motion. The nonlinearity due to finite deformation of the shell considering von Karman's assumptions is included in the formulation. The buckling loads are obtained through dynamic response history using Newmark's numerical integration scheme coupled with a Newton-Raphson iteration technique. An axisymmetric curved shell element is used to investigate the dynamic characteristics of the spherical caps. The pressure value beyond which the maximum average displacement response shows significant growth rate in the time history of the shell structure is considered as critical dynamic load. Detailed numerical results are presented to highlight the influence of ply-angle, shell geometric parameter and asymmetric mode on the critical load of spherical caps.

Free vibration of symmetric angle-ply layered conical shell frusta of variable thickness is analyzed under shear deformation theory with different boundary conditions by applying collocation with spline approximation. Linear and exponential variation in thickness of layers are assumed in axial direction. Displacements and rotational functions are approximated by Bickley-type splines of order three and obtained a generalized eigenvalue problem. This problem is solved numerically for an eigenfrequency parameter and an associated eigenvector of spline coefficients. The vibration of three and five-layered conical shells, made up of two different type of materials are considered. Parametric studies are made for analysing the frequencies of the shell with respect to the coefficients of thickness variations, length-to-radius ratio, length-to-thickness ratio and ply angles with different combination of the materials. The results are compared with the available data and new results are presented in terms of tables and graphs.

To investigate failure mechanisms observed in carbon-phenolic thermal insulators, differential equations which govern the decomposition process in a deformable anisotropic porous solid are derived for three-dimensional axisymmetric constructions. The governing equations not only couple the material deformation with pore pressure, but also couple pressure and temperature, which means that heat convected by the pyrolysis gases is properly accounted for. Then the Bubnov-Galerkin finite element method is applied to these equations to transform them into a semidescrete finite element system. A thermal insulation liner in the cowl region under typical operating conditions is analyzed to find a mechanism for plylift. The results from the structural analysis show across-ply failure in the cowl zone. The mechanism for plylift is hypothesized as a sequential procedure : 1) the across-ply failure which is the precursor to plylift and 2) the local fiber buckling caused by generation of excessive in-plane compressive stress. To prevent plylift, the across-ply stress can be reduced by using appropriate material ply angles in cowl zone design.

Stability of laminated plate under thermal load varied linearly along thickness, is developed using a higher order displacement field which depend on a parameter "m", whose value is optimized to get results closest to three-dimension elasticity results. Hamilton, s principle is used to derive equations of motion for laminated plates. These equations are solved using Navier-type for simply supported boundary conditions to obtain non uniform critical thermal buckling and fundamental frequency under a ratio of this load. Many design parameters of cross ply and angle ply laminates such as, number of layers, aspect ratios and E1/E2 ratios for thick and thin plates are investigated. It is observed that linear and uniform distribution of temperature reduces plate frequency.

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics(CFRP) have gained increased application in aerospace structures because of their specific strength and stiffness, but are sensitive to impact-induced damage. An experimental investigation was carried out to evaluate the impact resistance of CFRP according to the ply angle. The specimens of angle ply laminate composites were employed with [0.deg. $_{6}$/ .deg.$_{10}$/0.deg.$_{6}$], in which 6 kinds of ply angle such as .deg.=15.deg., 30.deg., 45.deg., 60.deg., 75.deg. and 90.deg. were selected. The impact tests were conducted using the air gun type impact testing machine by steel balls of diameter of 5 mm and 10 mm, and impact-induced damages were evaluated under same impact speed of V=60m/s. The impact damaged zones were observed through a scanning acoustic microscope (SAM). The obtained results were summarized as follows: (1) Delaminations on the interfacial boundaries showed th directional characteristics to the fiber directions. The delamination area on the impact side (interface A) was considerably smaller compared to that of the opposite side (interface B). (2) Cracks corresponding to other delaminations than those mentioned in SAM photographs were also seen on the impact damaged zone. (3) The delamination patterns were affected by the ply-angle, the dimensions of the specimen, and the boundary conditions. (4) The impact damaged zone showed zone showed the delamination on the interfacial boundaries, transverse shear cracks of the surface layer, and bending cracks of the bottom layer.r.r.r.

In this study, we evaluated the flow characteristics of various types of waveguide-below-cutoff (WBC) arrays and their shielding effectiveness (SE) of electromagnetic pulses (EMP) based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Three types of waveguides were selected for analysis: (1) grid type, (2) honeycomb type, and (3) multi-layer types (2-ply, 4-ply, 6-ply, and 8-ply). To analyze the air flow characteristics, the flow velocities in the longitudinal center of the WBC and the differential pressures between the WBC array inlet and outlet were evaluated. Consequently, we derive the following conclusions: (1) despite an increase in the inlet velocity, the pressure drop of the 6-ply multi-layer type did not significantly increase as compared to that of other types of waveguides (waveguide thickness of 0.1 mm, SE of 100 dB); (2) the grid and honeycomb type had the fastest flow rate of 17.5 m/s, which is approximately 2.5 m/s faster than that at the inlet (waveguide thickness of 1 mm, module size of 30 mm); and (3) the average pressure drop of the grid type waveguide is the lowest in the overall model, whereas that of the 8-ply is the highest (waveguide thickness of 1 mm, module size of 30 mm, and SE of 80, 100 dB).

Composites are a material class for which nondestructive material property characterization is as important as flaw detection. Laminates of fiber reinforced composites often possess strong in-plane elastic anisotropy attributable to the specific fiber orientation and layup sequence when waves are propagating in the thickness direction of composite laminates. So the layup orientation greatly influences its properties in a composite laminate. It could result in the part being .ejected and discarded if the layup orientation of a ply is misaligned. A nondestructive technique would be very beneficial, which could be used to test the part after curing and requires less time than the optical test. Therefore a ply-by-ply vector decomposition model has been developed, simplified, and implemented for composite laminates fabricated from unidirectional plies. This model decomposes the transmission of a linearly polarized ultrasound wave into orthogonal components through each ply of a laminate. Also in order to develop these methods into practical inspection tools, motorized system have been developed for different measurement modalities for acquiring ultrasonic signals as a function of in-plane angle. It is found that high probability shows between the model and tests developed in characterizing cured layups of the laminates.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of several methods of the patching on the strength of the seam-texture. The main findings warranted from the present study were as follows : 1. The breaking strength was increased in proportion to the number of stitches in the case of 5 stitches per cm and 7 stitches per cm, not in the case of 9 stitches per cm where the tendency to damage the texture stitches appeared because of the excessive. 2. In comparing the effects of three methods (1. attaching a single patch, 2. attaching a single patch and seaming, 3. attaching several ply patch), no significant difference was found among these three. 3. There was a significant difference between the effects of two methods (1. attaching a single patch and stitching one edge of it on one side of the seam, 2. attaching a single patch and stitching both edges of it on the both sides of seam). In other words, the latter was found to be significantly more effective than the former. 4. In the case of unbalanced texture 9for example, single to two ply, single ply to two ply, or single to three ply), attaching a single patch to single ply and stitching both edges of it, and attaching a single patch to cover the plain-seam and stitching both edges of it, were more effective than attaching a single patch without stitching. 5. In comparing the effects of stitching both edges of the patch in 4 stitches per cm by the machine and by the hand, no significant difference was found. But these were more effective than stitching its both edges in 2 stitches per cm by hand. 6. The plain-seam stitched one edge of patch in 2 stitches per cm by machine and other by hand was significantly stronger than the plain-seam without a patch or with patch not stitched.
