It is known that some problems commonly arise when welding dissimilar metals, especially
because it is more difficult to join dissimilar metals than similar metals. Therefore, to join …

When thin-walled composite cylindrical shells are subjected to combined loads, not only will
they buckle, but they could fail under overstressing. Buckling-failure and stress-failure are …

Modelling of progressive damage in a notched carbon/epoxy composite laminate subjected
to tensile loading using different assessment methods coupled with FEM. In this study …

This paper presents the progressive failure analysis of carbon nano tubes/polymer/fiber
reinforced laminated curved composite panels under transverse pressure load distributed …

Modelling the static failure of fibre-reinforced composite laminates is a challenging problem,
as the parameters of the relevant mechanical models might not have a physical …

The purpose of this work is to evaluate the failure of an open-hole composite laminate
subjected to tensile loading, including both initial damage and damage propagation, using …

The present paper investigates the dynamic responses and associated damage of GLARE 5–
2/1 plates subjected to successive repeated low-velocity impacts (LVIs) by spherical …

Non-linear dynamic analysis of a cross-ply laminated composite with fibre spacing plates
under in-plane loading was presented. The mathematical formulation is based on first-order …

Purpose The prediction of accurate failure strength and a composite laminate failure load is
of paramount importance for reliable design. The progressive failure analysis helps to …

Composite skew plates are aesthetically appealing light weight structural units finding wide
applications in floors and roofs of commercial buildings. Although bending and vibration …
