  1. Compression and buckling of composite panels with curvilinear fibers

    … although the analysis can be extended to fibers that vary in two spatial directions. A system of coupled elliptic partial differential equations that govern the in-plane behavior of these panels has been derived. Solving these equations yields the displacement fields, from which the …

  2. Analysis and Design of Variable Stiffness Composite Cylinders

    … situation is achieved mainly through the use of curvilinear fibers within a fiber-reinforced composite laminate, though the possibility of thickness variations and discrete stiffening elements is also allowed. These three mechanisms are incorporated into the constitutive laws for thin shells …

  3. Analysis of Tow-Placed, Variable-Stiffness Laminates

    It is possible to create laminae that have spatially varying fiber orientation with a tow placement machine. A laminate which is composed of such plies will have stiffness properties which vary as a function of position. Previous work had modelled such variable-stiffness laminae by taking a …
