Sinusoidal Shear Deformation Theory

Sinusoidal shear deformation theory is presented to analyze the natural frequencies of simply supported laminated composite plates. The governing differential equations based on sinusoidal theory are solved by a Navier-type analytical method. The present results are compared with the available published results which verify the accuracy of sinusoidal theory.

Stiffness Method

A stiffness method and an analytical method have been used to study the dispersion characteristics of guided waves in laminated composite plates. Both cross-ply and angle-ply plates have been considered in the analysis. The objective of the study is to analyze the effect of fiber orientation, ply layout configuration, and number of layers on the dispersion characteristics. A Rayleigh-Ritz type of approximation of the through-thickness variation of the displacements that maintain continuity of displacements and tractions at the interfaces between the layers has been used in the stiffness method. The analytical method solves the exact dispersion relation of the laminated plate by using the Muller’s method with initial guesses obtained through the stiffness method. Both methods are applicable to plates with arbitrary number of layers having distinct mechanical properties. Numerical results presented show strong influence of anisotropy on the guided waves.

High Elongation

This study aims to determine the ballistic performances of laminated composite plates produced with AA5083-H112 series aluminum and rubber material with high elongation capacity under impact loading. To investigate the effect of rubber compounds, two types of rubber with calendered and damping were prepared. Thanks to the surface treatment applied to the aluminum plates, the rubber–metal adhesion strength was adjusted, and four different laminated composite plate samples were prepared. Calendered rubber was used on the bullet impact surface of all samples, and damping rubber was used on the back. It has been observed that the pressure barrier created by the calendered rubber bullet on the front face provides high performance to absorb energy. A detailed study was carried out on the total thickness of laminated composite plates, the interface adhesion strength between rubber and aluminum layers, and the ballistic performance of aluminum-rubber combinations. It was concluded that the laminated composite plate’s energy absorption would increase, especially by increasing the thickness of the dumping rubber layer on the back of the aluminum sheets. In the strong metal-rubber interface interaction between the rubber and aluminum layer, the bullet is stopped before the pressure barrier is formed. The penetration depth and bulging height increase, and most of the energy are transmitted through the aluminum plate. In the weak metal-rubber interface interaction, a significant portion of the energy is absorbed by the rubber and air thanks to the pressure barrier.
