Abstract The propagation characteristics of SH waves along the circumferential direction in an orthotropic layer/piezoelectric column structure with a non-ideal interface are studied this paper. By solving governing equations, solutions to problem expressed by first and second Bessel functions. dispersion equation is obtained boundary conditions conditions. numerical examples provided show effe...

The dynamic responses of membrane are completely dependent on Pre-tensioned forces which are applied over a boundary of arbitrary curvilinear shape. In most practical cases, the dynamic responses of membrane structures are undesirable. Whilst they can be designed as vibration-based energy harvesters. In this paper a smart flat membrane sheet (SFMS) model for vibration-based energy harvester is ...

With the increasing requirements of automotive lightweighting, metal/CFRP laminates are increasingly used. In this paper, Al/CFRP were prepared using an integrated hot press curing method, and optimum conditions determined single-lap shear test at 130 °C for 45 min. The effects fiber lay-up, forming speed, metal layer thickness on bending springback investigated V-shaped Abaqus finite element a...

This work deals with the interaction of P-waves between a moving central crack and a pair of outer cracks situated at the interface of an orthotropic layer and an elastic half-space. Initially, we considered a two-dimensional elastic wave equation in orthotropic medium. The Fourier transform has been applied to convert the basic problem to solve the set of four integral equations. These set of ...

A method to simulate orthotropic behaviour in thin shell finite elements is proposed. The approach is based on the transformation of shape function derivatives, resulting in a new orthogonal basis aligned to a specified preferred direction for all elements. This transformation is carried out solely in the undeformed state leaving minimal additional impact on the computational effort expended to...
