Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of moisture effects on impact properties of composite materials
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of absorbed moisture on the high strain rate properties of polymer matrix composites is investigated. But, very little is known of the effect that absorbed moisture has on the performance of composites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis and Parametric Study of Non-Circular Pressurized Sandwich Fuselage Cross Section Using a High-Order Sandwich Theory Formulation
Ole Thybo Thomsen,Jack R. Vinson +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a high-order sandwich theory approach was adopted for the analysis of the fuselage section, including the formulations for flat and curved sandwich panels, and the results of a parametric study, which included the effects on the structural response of varying the sandwich panel midplane asymmetry, the core properties and the radius of curvature of the cross section corners.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minimum weight web-core sandwich panels subjected to uniaxial compression.
Jack R. Vinson,Sidney Shore +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed analytical methods by which web-core sandwich panels can be designed with minimum weight while retaining their structural integrity for a given load index, panel length and width, and specified face and web materials.
Book ChapterDOI
Joining of Composite Material Structures
TL;DR: In the design of composite material structures, components must be joined in such a manner that the overall structure retains its structural integrity while performing its intended function, subjected to loads (static and dynamic) and environment (temperature, humidity).
Journal ArticleDOI
Ballistic Impact of Thin-Walled Composite Structures
Jack R. Vinson,Jeffrey M. Walker +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed methods of analysis that provide the means to determine whether a ballistic impactor of known shape, mass, and striking velocity will penetrate a given thin-walled composite material structure and if it does, what the residual velocity of the impactor will be.
