Thermal post-buckling analysis of imperfect laminated plates using a higher-order shear deformation theory

Thermal post-buckling analysis is presented for a simply supported, composite laminated plate subjected to uniform or non-uniform tent-like temperature loading. The initial geometrical imperfection of the plate is taken into account. The formulations are based on the Reddy's higher-order shear deformation plate theory, and include thermal effects. The analysis uses a mixed Galerkin-perturbation technique to determine thermal buckling loads and post-buckling equilibrium paths. Numerical examples cover the performances of perfect and imperfect, antisymmetrically angle-ply and symmetrically cross-ply laminated plates. The effects played by transverse shear deformation, thermal load ratio, plate aspect ratio, total number of plies, fiber orientation and initial geometrical imperfections are studied. Typical results are presented in dimensionless graphical form.

Influences of large deformation and rotary inertia on wave propagation in piezoelectric cylindrically laminated shells in thermal environment

Influences of large deformation (geometrical non-linear) and rotary inertia on wave propagation in a long, piezoelectric cylindrically laminated shell in thermal environment is presented in this paper. Nonlinear dynamic governing equations of piezoelectric cylindrically laminated shells are derived by means of Hamilton’s principle. The wave propagation modes are obtained by solving an eigenvalue problem. Numerical examples show that the characteristics of wave propagation in piezoelectric cylindrically laminated shells are relates to the large deformation, rotary inertia and thermal environment of the piezoelectric cylindrically laminated shells. The effect of large deformation, rotary inertia and thermal load on wave propagation in the piezoelectric cylindrically laminated shells is discussed by comparing with the result from the small deformation (geometrical linear shell theory). This method may be used to investigate wave propagation in various laminated material, layers numbers and thickness of piezoelectric cylindrically laminated shells under large deformation. The results carried out can be used in the ultrasonic inspection techniques and structural health monitoring.     

Analysis on nonlinear dynamics of a deploying composite laminated cantilever plate

This paper presents the analysis on the nonlinear dynamics of a deploying orthotropic composite laminated cantilever rectangular plate subjected to the aerodynamic pressures and the in-plane harmonic excitation. The third-order nonlinear piston theory is employed to model the transverse air pressures. Based on Reddy’s third-order shear deformation plate theory and Hamilton’s principle, the nonlinear governing equations of motion are derived for the deploying composite laminated cantilever rectangular plate. The Galerkin method is utilized to discretize the partial differential governing equations to a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system. The two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system is numerically studied to analyze the stability and nonlinear vibrations of the deploying composite laminated cantilever rectangular plate with the change of the realistic parameters. The influences of different parameters on the stability of the deploying composite laminated cantilever rectangular plate are analyzed. The numerical results show that the deploying velocity and damping coefficient have great effects on the amplitudes of the nonlinear vibrations, which may lead to the jumping phenomenon of the amplitudes for first-order and second-order modes. The increase of the damping coefficient can suppress the increase of the amplitudes of the nonlinear vibration.     

Analysis of composite laminated plates

In the static and dynamic analysis of composite laminates, a theory for the laminated plates is presented in this paper. Because the deflection W_b which is caused by the classical bending deformation and the deflection W₅ which is caused by the shear deformation are divided from the total deflection W in the theory, this makes it easy to solve the governing equations. In addition, this theory is convenient for the discussion and analysis of the effects of transverse shear deformations on bendings, vibrations and stabilities of laminated plates.

The dynamic stiffness method is introduced to investigate the free vibration of laminated composite beams based on a third-order shear deformation theory which accounts for parabolic distribution of the transverse shear strain through the thickness of the beam. The exact dynamic stiffness matrix is found directly from the analytical solutions of the basic governing differential equations of motion. The Poisson effect, shear deformation, rotary inertia, in-plane deformation are considered in the analysis. Application of the derived dynamic stiffness matrix to several particular laminated beams is discussed. The influences of Poisson effect, material anisotropy, slenderness and end condition on the natural frequencies of the beams are investigated. The numerical results are compared with the existing solutions in literature whenever possible to demonstrate and validate the present method.

Nonlinear finite element analysis of laminated composite spherical shell vibration under uniform thermal loading

In this article, nonlinear free vibration behavior of laminated composite shallow shell under uniform temperature load is investigated. The mid-plane kinematics of the laminated shell is evaluated based on higher order shear deformation theory to count the out of plane shear stresses and strains accurately. The nonlinearity in geometry is taken in Green-Lagrange sense due to the thermal load. In addition to that, all the nonlinear higher order terms are taken in the mathematical model to capture the original flexure of laminated panel. A nonlinear finite element model is proposed to discretise the developed model and the governing equations are derived using Hamilton’s principle. The sets of governing equations are solved using a direct iterative method. In order to validate the model, the results are compared with the available published literature and the limitations of the existing models have been discussed. Finally, some numerical experimentation has been done using the developed nonlinear model for different parameters (thickness ratio, curvature ratio, modular ratio, support condition, lamination scheme, amplitude ratio and thermal expansion coefficient) and their effects on the responses are discussed in detail.     

Geometrically nonlinear isogeometric analysis of laminated composite plates based on higher-order shear deformation theory

In this paper, we present an effectively numerical approach based on isogeometric analysis (IGA) and higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT) for geometrically nonlinear analysis of laminated composite plates. The HSDT allows us to approximate displacement field that ensures by itself the realistic shear strain energy part without shear correction factors (SCFs). IGA utilizing basis functions namely B-splines or non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS) enables to satisfy easily the stringent continuity requirement of the HSDT model without any additional variables. The nonlinearity of the plates is formed in the total Lagrange approach based on the small strain assumptions. Numerous numerical validations for the isotropic, orthotropic, cross-ply and angle-ply laminated plates are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Thermal buckling and postbuckling of laminated composite beams with temperature-dependent properties

The thermal buckling and postbuckling analysis of laminated composite beams with temperature-dependent material properties is presented. The governing equations are based on the first-order shear deformation beam theory (FSDT) and the geometrical nonlinearity is modeled using Green's strain tensor in conjunction with the von Karman assumptions. The differential quadrature method (DQM) as an accurate, simple and computationally efficient numerical tool is adopted to discretize the governing equations and the related boundary conditions. A direct iterative method is employed to obtain the critical temperature (bifurcation point) as well as the nonlinear equilibrium path (the postbuckling behavior) of symmetrically laminated beams. The applicability, rapid rate of convergence and high accuracy of the method are established via different examples and by comparing the results with those of existing in literature. Then, the effects of temperature dependence of the material properties, boundary conditions, length-to-thickness ratios, number of layers and ply angle on the thermal buckling and postbuckling characteristic of symmetrically laminated beams are investigated.     

A new beam element for analyzing geometrical and physical nonlinearity

Based on Timoshenko＇s beam theory and Vlasov＇s thin-walled member theory, a new model of spatial thin-walled beam element is developed for analyzing geometrical and physical nonlinearity, which incorporates an interior node and independent interpolations of bending angles and warp and takes diversified factors into consideration, such as traverse shear deformation, torsional shear deformation and their coupling, coupling of flexure and torsion, and the second shear stress. The geometrical nonlinear strain is formulated in updated Lagarange （UL） and the corresponding stiffness matrix is derived. The perfectly plastic model is used to account for physical nonlinearity, and the yield rule of von Mises and incremental relationship of Prandtle-Reuss are adopted. Elastoplastic stiffness matrix is obtained by numerical integration based on the finite segment method, and a finite element program is compiled. Numerical examples manifest that the proposed model is accurate and feasible in the analysis of thin-walled structures.     

Corotational nonlinear analyses of laminated shell structures using a 4-node quadrilateral flat shell element with drilling stiffness

A new 4-node quadrilateral flat shell element is developed for geometrically nonlinear analyses of thin and moderately thick laminated shell structures. The fiat shell element is constructed by combining a quadrilateral area co- ordinate method （QAC） based membrane element AGQ6- II, and a Timoshenko beam function （TBF） method based shear deformable plate bending element ARS-Q12. In order to model folded plates and connect with beam elements, the drilling stiffness is added to the element stiffness matrix based on the mixed variational principle. The transverse shear rigidity matrix, based on the first-order shear deformation theory （FSDT）, for the laminated composite plate is evaluated using the transverse equilibrium conditions, while the shear correction factors are not needed. The conventional TBF methods are also modified to efficiently calculate the element stiffness for laminate. The new shell element is extended to large deflection and post-buckling analyses of isotropic and laminated composite shells based on the element independent corotational formulation. Numerical re- sults show that the present shell element has an excellent numerical performance for the test examples, and is applicable to stiffened plates.
