Abstract In hogging bending moment regions of continuous composite beams the collapse by lateral-distortional buckling (LDB) can occur. The design against LDB according to ABNT NBR 8800:2008 begins with the determination of the elastic critical moment, which depends, among other factors, of the distribution of the bending moment in the analyzed span, taken into account in the formulation through the modification parameter Cdist. To assess the analytical formulations prescribed by ABNT NBR 8800:2008, numerical FE models that simulate the LDB behavior of continuous steel-concrete composite beams were developed in this paper. The different boundary conditions presented in ABNT NBR 8800:2008 were checked using two different models: a simplified model, with a single simply supported span; and models with multiple internal supports and more than one span. It was observed that the Cdist values prescribed by ABNT NBR 8800:2008 can be unsafe, and therefore new values for Cdist are proposed in this paper.

AbstractThis study deals with the determination of the harmonic response of symmetric laminated composite beams by the finite element method. The structural stiffness of the composite beam is determined by the classical laminated plate theory. Four different ply orientations, namely, [0]2s, [0/90]s, [45/-45]s, and [90]2s are used to examine the effect of the stacking sequence on the harmonic response of the beam. Proportional damping is used to model the structural damping, and the damped harmonic responses of the composite beams are obtained to show the effect of the damping on the harmonic response. The effect of the boundary conditions on the harmonic response is also investigated. The displacement maps calculated for varying excitation points are obtained for different boundary conditions and damping ratios at different vibrational modes. The numerical results presented in this study show that the magnitudes of the harmonic response of the composite beam increase as the flexural rigidity decreases, and the vibration magnitudes reduce considerably with damping. The vibration patterns created for varying excitation and observation locations change as the damping ratio and excitation frequency change.

In this Paper, the analysis of simply supported laminated composite beam having uniformly distributed load is performed. The solutions obtained in the form of the displacements and stresses for different layered cross ply laminated composite simply supported beams subjected uniformly distributed to load. Different aspect ratio consider for different results in terms of displacement, bending stress and shear stresses. The shear stresses are calculated with the help of equilibrium equation and constitutive relationship. Using displacement field including trigonometric function of laminated composite beams are derived from virtual displacement principle. There are axial displacement, transverse displacement, bending stress and shear stresses. In addition, Euler-Bernoulli (ETB), First order shear deformation beam theory (FSDT), Higher order shear deformation beam theory (HSDT) and Hyperbolic shear deformation beam theory (HYSDT) solution have been made for comparison and better accuracy of solutions and results of static analyses of laminated composite beams for simply supported laminated composite beam.

For a system obtained by placing more than two elastic plates side by side, the transmission conditions are obtained at the common boundaries. Finite difference equations are developed for the problem of plates with internal hinges and applied for determination of the response of a system assembled from three different plates with different mechanical constraints between adjacent plates in this study. An algorithm is written to find out how long the size of the plates should be in order to obtain the desired amount of bending against the force affecting the system under different boundary conditions. The bisection and multigrid methods are used for this. These two methods are compared based on the obtained data.

The determination of thermal insulation performance of thermal protection materials or structures is an indispensable and important step in the safety design of high speed flight vehicles. To obtain the temperature difference of the radiating surface for plate specimens under three different boundary conditions in heat insulation experiments (the specimens were placed either vertically or horizontally with the radiating surface facing down or horizontally with the radiating surface facing up), three thermal test setups were established to test the thermal insulation performance of light-weight ceramic specimens at different temperatures. The results show that the radiating surface temperature was the highest when the specimen was placed horizontally with the radiating surface facing down, while it was the lowest when the specimen was placed horizontally with the radiating surface facing up.The numerical calculation results agreed very well with the experimental ones, confirming the credibility and accuracy of the experimental results. The different thermal insulation performances of the plate specimens obtained under three different boundary conditions will provide important guidance for designers in the design of thermal protection systems for large cabins of high speed flight vehicles.

In this study, Symmetric cross-ply linear width tapered laminated composite beam is considered. Due to the variety of width tapered composite beams and the complexity of the analysis, no closed-form analytical solution is available at present regarding free vibration response. Therefore in the present work, the Ritz method is used for the free vibration analysis with considering uni-axial compressive and tensile force. The elastic stiffness of the width tapered composite beam is analyzed compared to uniform laminated composite beam. Free vibration which is significant to investigate the dynamic characteristics of the structure using Ritz method with and without effect of axial tensile and compressive force is analyzed. The analysis is based on 1D laminated beam theory. The governing equations are obtained by means of Hamilton’s principle. Tsai-Wu failure analysis is considered to find the tensile and compressive failure force for each ply in the laminate. Buckling analysis is conducted to find the critical buckling force for the laminated composite beam-column subjected to different sets of boundary conditions. Simply supported, Clamped-free, Clamped-Clamped edge boundary conditions are considered. A detailed parametric study is conducted on tapered composite beams made of NCT/301 graphite-epoxy to investigate the effects of the ratio of the width of the thick section to thin section, boundary conditions, effects of axial and compressive force on natural frequency and buckling analysis.

Depending on the type of matrix materials, composites can be broadly divided into three different major classifications: Organic-matrix composites (OMC), metal-matrix composites (MMC), and ceramic-matrix composites (CMC). OMC can be further sub-classified into polymer-matrix composites (PMC) and carbon-matrix composites or carbon-carbon composites. In this paper the main objective is to focus on polyurethane based PMC composites. Polyurethane is one of the widely used polymer matrix materials. It has diversified applications, easily available and cheap. In this computational study a composite shaft with a core made of matrix material completely wrapped around by a woven fiber cloth with a very strong bonding between core and fibers is considered. Three different types of woven fibers: fiber glass, Kevlar 49, and carbon fibers, are considered. A woven fabric is the interlocking or weaving of two unidirectional fibers. This configuration is often used to produce curve surfaces because of the ease with which it could be placed on and conform to curved surfaces. Authors had fabricated these three composites in their in-house laboratory. They had also experimentally measured the mechanical properties of these composites using 3-point bending test which already been published. In this current study finite element analyses has been performed for the modeling of the static response of these three different polyurethane based composite shafts as fiber glass reinforced polyurethane epoxy, carbon fiber reinforced polyurethane epoxy, and Kevlar fibers reinforced polyurethane epoxy for three different boundary conditions. These three boundary conditions are simply supported, cantilever, both end fixed types with bending loads applied at the middle for simply supported case and distributed load along the length of the shaft for the last two types of boundary conditions. A three dimensional model of the composite beam has been implemented in this study using SolidWorks. A finite element commercial software ANSYS is used to investigate the stress response and deformation behavior of the model geometry for these three polyurethane based composite shafts for these three boundary conditions. A twenty node three dimensional element has been implemented for the finite element formulation of the modeled geometry such that it is applicable for the analysis of a layered composite structure, while providing support for linear, large rotation, and large strain nonlinear loading conditions. Convergence has also been ensured for various mash configurations in this work.

Based on the theoretical analysis and testing results, some key issues in design of outer-plated steel-concrete continuous composite beams are discussed. The influence of the form of steel beam upper flange on the behavior of composite beam is analyzed. The requirements about longitudinal reinforcement strength in the concrete flange of the negative moment region are given. It is suggested that the moment-shear interaction should be neglected when calculating the flexural capacity of outer-plated steel-concrete composite beams under negative bending moment. The behavior of longitudinal shear resistance at the interface between the concrete flange and web of composite beam is studied, and the related calculating formula is put forward based on the structural features of the composite beam.

Equations for solving the deflection and bending moments of rhombic plates by exact method are known to be highly tedious. A set of simplified equations is developed for design purposes of such simply supported plates under uniform load. Curve-fitting from exact data allows the deflection and its second derivatives, evaluated at the plate centre, to be expressed in greatly simplified and yet sufficiently accurate empirical models for thin rhombic plates. Using the simplified model, it is shown that the maximum bending moment can be reduced by using auxetic materials. By including the effects of shear deformation for thick rhombic plates, it is demonstrated that the ratio of shear-to-bending deformation decreases as the rhombic plate approaches a square shape and as the plate’s Poisson’s ratio becomes more negative.
