Effective Properties of Smart Elastic Laminates and the Screening Phenomenon
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract-Non-stationary phenomena arising in structures can be effectively controlled via smart (intelligent) materials. The corresponding mathematical problems contain controls in the coefficients of hyperbolic equations, these controls depending both on position and time. When appropriately activated, such controls may provide 100% screening of some extended parts of the structure from the invasion of dynamic disturbances. For bars exposed to longitudinal vibrations, the material pattern producing such a screening effect can be the combination of rank-one laminar composites in space-time. Such a composite is described as an array of alternating segments with different pairs (p,, k,) and (pz, kJ of density and stiffness of smart material, this whole array traveling along the bar with a suitable constant speed V.

Delamination is one of the most common failure modes in composite structures. In particular, when the laminated composites are subjected to compressive loads, delamination becomes a constraint in the design process. In this study, the system is modeled as a plate supported by an elastic foundation. The elastic adhesive layer between the buckled sublaminates is represented by some parallel sprin...
