Evaluation of the Perturbation Sensitivity of Composite Laminated Shells
The perturbation sensitivity and its influence on the limit loads of shells are widely discussed phenomena. Both phenomena may be classified with respect to the type of perturbation. As perturbations influence the stability of shells, the identification of unfavourable perturbations is essential. The perturbation energy concept enables to identify unfavourable non-initial perturbation loads and...
متن کاملOPTIMUM DESIGN OF FILAMENT–WOUND LAMINATED CONICAL SHELLS FOR BUCKLING USING THE PENALTY FUNCTION
Optimum laminate configuration for minimum weight of filament–wound laminated conical shells subject to buckling load constraint is investigated. In the case of a laminated conical shell the thickness and the ply orientation (the design variables) are functions of the shell coordinates, influencing both the buckling load and its weight. These effects complicate the optimization problem consider...
متن کاملOptimization of a Two Joint Cross-Ply Laminated Conical Shells to Minimize the Natural Frequencies
This study deals with the vibrational behavior of two joined cross-ply laminated conical shells. Natural frequencies and mode shapes are investigated. Joined conical shells can be considered as a general case for joined cylindrical-conical shells, joined cylinderplates or cone-plates, cylindrical and conical shells with stepped thicknesses and also annular plates. Governing equations are obtain...
متن کاملImperfection-Insensitive Axially Loaded Thin Cylindrical Shells
The high efficiency of circular monocoque cylindrical shells in carrying axial loads is impaired by their extreme sensitivity to imperfections and there is an extensive body of literature that addresses this behavior. Instead of following this classical path, focused on circular cross-sections, this paper presents a novel approach that adopts optimal symmetry-breaking wavy cross-sections (wavy ...
متن کاملImperfection-Insensitive Axially Loaded Cylindrical Shells
The high efficiency of monocoque cylindrical shells in carrying axial loads is curtailed by their extreme sensitivity to imperfections. For practical applications, this issue has been alleviated by introducing closely stiffened shells which, however, require expensive manufacturing. Here we present an alternative approach that provides a fundamentally different solution. We design symmetry-brea...
