Abstract
In this document, a hybrid procedure is constructed in order to predict the damage of a composite unidirectional laminate under random loading. This procedure is based on two pillars: a stiffness degradation model (SD-M) combined with an energy approach taking into account the effect of load ratio in addition to a system of equations generated by SSDQM method (Space State Differential Quadrature Method) which we have solved with a novel technic. The outputs of SSDQM method, previously serving for free vibration behavior analysis of composite structures, are used with those of SD-M model to predict damage failure of a composite laminate subjected to spectra loading. The results obtained correlate very well with experimental ones and an extensive comparison with other models validate the accuracy and convergence characteristics of this hybrid procedure.
期刊介绍:
WSEAS Transactions on Applied and Theoretical Mechanics publishes original research papers relating to computational and experimental mechanics. We aim to bring important work to a wide international audience and therefore only publish papers of exceptional scientific value that advance our understanding of these particular areas. The research presented must transcend the limits of case studies, while both experimental and theoretical studies are accepted. It is a multi-disciplinary journal and therefore its content mirrors the diverse interests and approaches of scholars involved with fluid-structure interaction, impact and multibody dynamics, nonlinear dynamics, structural dynamics and related areas. We also welcome scholarly contributions from officials with government agencies, international agencies, and non-governmental organizations.
