Supersonic flutter analysis of cylindrical composite panels with structural damping treatments has been performed using the finite element method based on the layerwise shell theory. The natural frequencies and loss factors of cylindrical viscoelastic composites are computed considering the effects of transversely shear deformation. The panel flutter of cylindrical composite panels is analyzed considering structural damping effect. Various damping characteristics for unconstrained layer damping, constrained layer damping, and symmetrically co-cured sandwich laminates are compared with those of an original base panel in view of aeroelastic stabilities.

Based on the full layerwise displacement shell theory, vibration and damping characteristics of cylindrical sandwich panels are investigated. The transverse shear deformation and the normal strain are fully taken into account for structural damping modelling. Modal damping factors and frequency response functions are analyzed for various structural parameters of cylindrical sandwich beams. Present results shows that full layerwise theory can accurately predict vibration and damping characteristics of cylindrical composite panels with surface damping treatments and constrained layer damping. The viscoelastic materials depending on elevated temperature environment and exciting frequencies can be fully considered.

The paper describes the results of an experimental and numerical investigation into the structural and damage response of sandwich composites to low-velocity impact. Sandwich panels consisting of laminated composite skins with three different layups bonded to a PVC foam core were subjected to impact at various energy levels corresponding to barely visible impact damage (BVID) in the impacted skins. Damage assessment analyses were performed on the impacted panels to characterise the extent and the nature of the major failure mechanisms occurring in the skins. The data collected during the experimental analyses were finally used to assess the predictive capabilities of an FE tool recently developed by the authors for detailed simulation of impact damage in composite sandwich panels. Good agreement was observed between experimental results and model predictions in terms of structural response to impact, global extent of damage and typical features of individual damage mechanisms.

Satellites with flexible lightweight solar panels are sensitive to vibration that is caused by internal actuators such as reaction or momentum wheels which are used to control the attitude of the satellite. Any infinitesimal amount of unbalance in the reaction wheels rotors will impose a harmonic excitation which may interact with the solar panels structure. Therefore, quenching the solar panel's vibration is of a practical importance. In the present work, the panels are modeled as laminated composite beam using first-order shear deformation laminated plate theory which accounts for rotational inertia as well as shear deformation effects. The vibration suppression is achieved by bonding patches of piezoelectric material with suitable dimensions at selected locations along the panel. These patches are actuated by driving control voltages. The governing equations for the system are formulated and the dynamic Green's functions are used to present an exact yet simple solution for the problem. A guide lines is proposed for determining the values of the driving voltage in order to suppress the induced vibration.

This paper evaluates experimentally the explosion proof of fiber reinforced cement composite(FRCC) panels with various fibers of 2 % volume fraction subjected to contact explosions using an emulsion explosive. As a results, the proportion of the total damage in FRCC panels is not biased scabbing on the rear side with contrast to plain panels, which means that the local damage of FRCC panels was significantly controlled. The experimental results presented useful information for prediction of limited thickness on the local damage subjected to contact explosions through comparison with existing damage evaluation prediction equations.

Since most of main noise sources of the railroad vehicle are transmitted to the passenger's ear through the vibration of the panel, the insulation performance of the panels should be high enough to protect the passengers from the noisy environment. Specifically, the composite materials which are generally used for reducing the weight of the vehicle compartment have the low insulation performance, noise control actions should be taken appropriately by considering the insulation performance of the panels. In this study, the insulation performances of the inner/outer panels were evaluated and the contribution of the aluminum door was estimated compared to the composite panels. The results can furnish an indepth understanding of the insulation characteristics of the panel of railroad vehicle.

This study investigates the blast resistance of fiber-reinforced cementitious composite (FRCC) panels, with fiber volume fractions of 2%, subjected to contact explosions using an emulsion explosive. A number of FRCC panels with five different fiber mixtures (i.e., micro polyvinyl alcohol fiber, micro polyethylene fiber, macro hooked-end steel fiber, micro polyvinyl alcohol fiber with macro hooked-end steel fiber, and micro polyethylene fiber with macro hooked-end steel fiber) were fabricated and tested. In addition, the blast resistance of plain panels (i.e., non-fiber-reinforced high strength concrete, and non-fiber-reinforced cementitious composites) were examined for comparison with those of the FRCC panels. The resistance of the panels to spall failure improved with the addition of micro synthetic fibers and/or macro hooked-end steel fibers as compared to those of the plain panels. The fracture energy of the FRCC panels was significantly higher than that of the plain panels, which reduced the local damage experienced by the FRCCs. The cracks on the back side of the micro synthetic fiber-reinforced panel due to contact explosions were greatly controlled compared to the macro hooked-end steel fiber-reinforced panel. However, the blast resistance of the macro hooked-end steel fiber-reinforced panel was improved by hybrid with micro synthetic fibers.

One of the major failure modes in composite sandwich structures is the separation between skins and core. In this study, the effect of employing foam filled composite corrugated core on the skin/core debonding (resistance to separation between skin and core) is investigated both experimentally and numerically. To this aim, triangular corrugated core specimens are manufactured and compared with reference specimens only made of PVC foam core in terms of skin/core debonding under bending loading. The corrugated composite laminates are fabricated using the hand layup method. Also, the Vacuumed Infusion Process (VIP) is employed to join the skins to the core with greater quality. Utilizing an End Notched Shear (ENS) fixture, three point bending tests are performed on the manufactured sandwich composite panels. The results reveal that the resistance to separation capacity and flexural stiffness of sandwich composite has been increased about 170% and 76%, respectively by using a triangular corrugated core. The Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) with appropriate cohesive law in ABAQUS finite element software is used to model the progressive face/core interfaces debonding the difference between experimental and numerical results in predicting the maximum born load before the skin/core separation is about 6 % in simple core specimens and 3% in triangular corrugated core specimens.

프리캐스트 패널은 교량바닥판의 합성 구조부재로서 사용된다. 프리캐스트 패널의 횡방향 강재는 교량바닥판의 주철근 역할을 하며, 또한, 패널은 상부의 현장타설 콘크리트 시공시 거푸집 대용으로 적용된다. 이 연구에서는 프리캐스트 패널과 현장타설 바닥판의 합성효과를 위해 패널 상부에 도입되는 전단철근 필요성을 확인하였다. 또한, 프리캐스트 패널을 갖는 합성바닥판에서 패널간에는 횡방향 이음부의 연속적인 거동이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 전단철근과 루프이음을 갖는 합성바닥판의 정적실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과로부터 바닥판의 연속성 확보를 위한 루프철근 이음부의 연속성을 확인하고, 패널과 현장타설 바닥판 사이의 합성효과를 확인하였다. 전단철근이 있는 합성바닥판은 합성효과의 증가로 인해 전단철근이 없는 바닥판에 비해 약 140~164%의 극한내력을 보인다. 따라서 접합면에 도입되는 전단철근은 파괴시까지 합성거동을 확보해주는 역할을 하는 것으로 판단된다.

The paper describes the use of genetic algorithms (GA's) to the minimum weight design of stiffened composite panels for buckling constraints. The proposed design problem is characterized by mixture of continuous and discrete design variables corresponding to panel elements and stacking sequence of laminates, respectively. Design space is multimodal and non-convex, thereby introducing the need for global search strategies. Advanced strategies in GA's such as directed crossover, multistage search and separated crossover are adopted to improve search ability and to save computational resource requirements. The paper explores the effectiveness of genetic algorithms and their advanced strategies in designing stiffened composite panels under various uniaxial compressive load conditions and the linrlit on stacking sequence of laminates.
