Knowing the material properties of individual layers of the corrugated plate structures and the geometry of its cross-section, the effective material parameters of the equivalent plate can be calculated. This can be problematic, especially if the transverse shear stiffness is also necessary for the correct description of the equivalent plate performance. In this work, the method proposed by Biancolini is extended to include the possibility of determining, apart from the tensile and flexural stiffnesses, also the transverse shear stiffness of the homogenized corrugated board. The method is based on the strain energy equivalence between the full numerical 3D model of the corrugated board and its Reissner-Mindlin flat plate representation. Shell finite elements were used in this study to accurately reflect the geometry of the corrugated board. In the method presented here, the finite element method is only used to compose the initial global stiffness matrix, which is then condensed and directly used in the homogenization procedure. The stability of the proposed method was tested for different variants of the selected representative volume elements. The obtained results are consistent with other technique already presented in the literature.

Abstract The great number of possible stacking orders to form laminates suggests to apply optimization, more frequently than usual, in the design of structures made of composite materials. One of the columns upon which optimization of structures is built is the mathematical search procedure for locating a minimum (or maximum) of a constrained function. Efficient algorithms will require the evaluation of derivatives of the object function as well as of the constraints. In that context the sensitivities of laminate stiffness matrices may be required. In order to meet such a requirement the derivatives with respect to both ply thicknesses and ply angles, of laminate stiffnesses, including transverse shear stiffness, will be presented in this report.

Shear Behaviors

The vertical shear behaviors of an immersion joint with steel shear keys subjected to multidirectional loads are investigated in this paper. An experiment of an immersion joint model is carried out. Two kinds of compression–shear tests of the joint are considered in this experiment. The first kind of compression–shear test applies a specific vertical shear load and five different levels of longitudinal compressive loads on the joint. An additional compression–vertical shear destruction test is also conducted under the minimum longitudinal compressive load, wherein the vertical shear load is incrementally increased until failure of the joint. The other kind of compression–shear test is a bidirectional shear test, in which both the longitudinal compressive load and the transverse shear load are fixed, and the vertical shear load is gradually increased until reaching a target value. The results show that the shear force–displacement curves of the joint in any loading case can be divided into two stages: a non-linear development stage and a quasi-linear development stage. The vertical shear stiffness of the joint is found to increase with increasing longitudinal compressive load, and the existence of a transverse shear load enhances this effect. The ultimate shear capacity of the joint is smaller than the sum of the shear capacities of all vertical steel keys. In addition, the failure of the joint appears at the shear key on one sidewall of the joint.
