Buckling Analysis of Rectangular Laminated Composite Plates With An Edge Delamination Under Compressive Load

author

Abstract:

The buckling analysis of rectangular laminated composite plates with an edge delamination under in-plane compressive loading is performed using the finite element method. Such a plate may be considered as a simplified model of stiffener plates of a stiffened panel. The buckling load and buckling mode are obtained by solving an eigenproblem. In an unconstrained analysis, physically inadmissible modes appear because of the overlap between separated sublaminates in the delaminated region. To eliminate overlap, constraints are added iteratively on the entire overlapped area using penalty function method. The validity and superiority of the analysis method in predicting buckling load and buckling mode is shown in comparison with the experimental and analytical results available in the literature. Numerical results show the effect of delamination width and depth and boundary conditions on the buckling load.

Buckling Studies on Laminated Composite Skew Plates

This paper presents buckling studies made on skew plates using finite element. The effects of the skew angle, aspect ratio, length-to-thickness-ratio, fibre orientation angle, and numbers of layers in the laminate and laminate sequence on the critical buckling load factor (Kcr) of antisymmetric composite laminates have also been presented. The critical buckling load factor (Kcr) is found to inc...
