Abstract The present study is concerned with translaminar reinforcement in a sandwich beam for preventing buckling of a delaminated face-sheet under axial compression. Graphite/epoxy pins are used as reinforcement in the thickness direction of sandwich beams consisting of graphite/epoxy face-sheets and a Aramid honeycomb core. Compression tests are performed to understand the effects of the diameter of the reinforcing pins and reinforcement spacing on the ultimate compressive strength of the delaminated beams. A finite element analysis is performed to understand the effects of translaminar reinforcement on the critical buckling loads and post-buckling behavior of the sandwich beam under axial compression.

The post-buckling of stiffened, cross-ply laminated, circular determine the effects of shell lamination scheme and stiffeners on the reduced load-carrying capacity. The effect of geometric imperfection is also included. The analysis is based on the layerwise shell theory of Reddy, and the “smeared stiffener” technique is used to account for the stiffener stiffness. Nu cylinders under uniform axial compression is investigated to merical results for stiffened and unstiffened cylinders are presented, showing that imperfection-sensitivity is strictly related to the number of nearly simultaneous buckling modes.

Shell Geometry

Many elliptical shells are used in structural applications in which the dominant loading condition is axial compression. Due to the fact that the radius varies along the cross-section midline, the buckling behavior is more difficult to identify than those of cylindrical shells. The general concerned aspects in cylindrical shell buckling analyses such as the buckling mode, the pre-buckling deformation and post-buckling deformation are all quite different related to specific elliptical shell geometry. The buckling behavior of elliptical cylindrical shells with uniform thickness has been widely studied by many researchers. However, the thickness around the circumference may change for some specific structural forms, the femoral neck for example, which makes the buckling behavior more complex. It is known that the buckling strength of thin cylindrical shells is quite sensitive to imperfections, so it is natural to explore the imperfection sensitivity of elliptical shells. This paper explores the buckling behavior of imperfect elliptical shells under axial compression. It is hoped that the results will make a useful contribution in this field.

Interlaminar Shear

Abstract The buckled wave length and the critical in-plane bending moment of laminated long composite strips of cord-reinforced rubber sheets on an elastic foundation is analyzed by Galerkin's method, with consideration of interlaminar shear deformation. An approximate formula for the wave length is given in terms of cord angle, elastic moduli of the constituent rubber and steel cord, and several structural dimensions. The calculated wave length for a 165SR13 automobile tire with steel breakers (belts) was very close to experimental results. An additional study was then conducted on the post-buckling behavior of a laminated biased composite beam on an elastic foundation. This beam is subjected to axial compression. The calculated relationship between the buckled wave rise and the compressive membrane force also agreed well with experimental results.
