Open holes or cutouts have been commonly used in composite structures for various
engineering purposes. This paper aims to investigate the load bearing behavior and failure …

For enhancing residual energy-absorption (EA) of perforated CFRP square tube to original
EA of intact tube, simple/cost-efficient trigger mechanisms are introduced to avoid …

The present work focuses on the damage assessment of carbon fiber reinforced polymer
(CFRP) panels subjected to in-plane shear loading undergoing large deformation …

In this study, buckling, post-buckling and progressive failure of composite laminated plates
have been investigated numerically and experimentally. Buckling load, load-displacement …

This paper is focused on laminated glass plate designed with the “sacrificial ply” concept:
The glass layer that collects the live loads is considered as broken (ie, it is not considered) …

In this study, experimental and numerical investigations of buckling and postbuckling
responses of square symmetric plates configured with innovative layup sequences have …

Previous works have established the response and failure behaviour of hybrid (CFRP-
GFRP) laminates when subjected to a wide range of destabilising loads. However, to date …

A nonlinear constitutive model for a single lamina is proposed for the failure analysis of
composite laminates. In the material model, both fiber and matrix are assumed to behave as …

This present work investigates the buckling load optimization of the laminated composite
plates with the elliptical hole under different non-uniform edge loads. The design objective is …

In this paper, we present the initial buckling and post-buckling responses of axial loaded
advanced grid stiffened (AGS) composite cylindrical shells with reinforced rectangular or …
