Internal instability of laminated composites with a metal matrix

Conclusions The constructed characteristic determinant for a three-dimensional nonaxisymmetric problem in the theory of stability of laminated composites with a metal matrix coincides with the characteristic determinant for the axisymmetric problem with the corresponding substitution of the wave parameters. The solution of the characteristic equation for a real material shows that loss of stability according to the different forms and for different values of deformation and the oscillation parameter as a function of the concentration of filler is possible.Translated from Mekhanika Kompozitnykh Materialov, No. 6, pp. 1051–1056, November–December, 1990.
