In this study, the optimum design of fiber-reinforced composite plates with different hole
geometries for various load conditions is investigated. Strain energy/compliance is …

Due to the non-uniform in-plane stress distribution, variable-stiffness panel with curvilinear
fiber paths is a promising structural concept for cutout reinforcement of composite structures …

The open-hole tension (OHT) properties and failure processes of three-dimensional (3D)
woven composite plates with circular, racetrack, and square holes were investigated in this …

Buckling loads of laminated panels calculated by analytical approaches are usually based
on the assumptions that the panels are subjected to uniform in-plane edge loads without …

The changes in energy-absorption and deformation characteristics of thin-walled E-glass
fiber reinforced composite conical frusta upon introduction cutouts were studied through …

Glass fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) hat-stiffened panels have been widely used in high-
speed vessels. Using carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) as hybrid composites can …

The use of composite stiffened panels is common in a large variety of engineering
structures. An advanced computational model is developed to accurately predict the …

Although the double-double (DD) laminates proposed by Tsai provide a promising option for
achieving better structural performance with lower manufacturing and maintenance costs …

Abstracts The perforated stiffened panel is generally found as a sub-component of
sophisticated structures. The fundamental purpose of this panel is to withstand against …

This paper presents the second-order statistics of hygro-thermo-electrically-induced
progressive failure in terms of first-ply failure load (FPFL) and last-ply failure load (LPFL) …
