Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Composite Laminated: Theories and Their Applications presents the latest methods for analyzing composite laminates and their applications. The title introduces the most important analytical methods in use today, focusing on fracture, damage, multi-physics and sensitivity analysis. Alongside these methods, it presents original research carried out over two decades on laminated composite structures and gives detailed coverage of laminate theories, analytic solutions and finite element models. Specific chapters cover An introduction to composites, Elasticity, Shear, State space theory, Layerwise theories, The extended layerwise method, Fracture and damage mechanics, Multi-physical fracture problems, Analytical methods of stiffened sandwich structures, Progressive failure analysis, and more. This volume offers a comprehensive guide to the state-of-the-art in the analysis and applications of composite laminates, which play a critical role in all types of engineering, from aerospace to subsea structures, including in medical prosthetics, circuit boards and sports equipment. - Presents a guide to the analysis and application of advanced composite materials - Gives detailed exposition of plate/shell theories and their implementation in finite element code architecture - Considers the robustness, effectiveness and applications aspects of laminated plate/shell methods - Gives hands-on experience of code architecture, providing composite analysis software which can be plugged in to commercial applications - Presents experimental research alongside methods, laminate theories, analytic solutions, and finite element models
