AbstractIn engineering industries, composite laminates have been widely applied for various applications. This work presents an efficient analysis of the interlaminar stresses in three-dimensional thin layered anisotropic composites by the boundary element method (BEM). Due to the nearly singular integrals in the boundary integral equation, the conventional BEM approach cannot be applied to analyze the composite layers that are very thin. The present work employs the self-regularization scheme to analyze the interlaminar stresses in thin anisotropic composites. In the end, a few benchmark examples are presented to show the applicability of the present approach.

The vibration and acoustic behaviors of both glass fiber laminated plates and carbon/glass fiber hybrid laminated plates are investigated by numerical simulation. The free vibration, forced vibration and acoustic radiation of laminated plates including glass fiber laminates and carbon/glass fiber hybrid laminates in air and water are calculated by the coupled finite element and boundary element method and compared with the corresponding test results. It was demonstrated that results obtained by the coupled finite element and boundary element method are in good agreement with the experimental ones. The effects of dispersion, outer fiber types and fiber hybrid ratio on the vibration and sound radiation of the laminates plates are also discussed.
