Active Vibration Control of Laminated Composite Plates Using Piezoelectric Devices: A Finite Element Approach
K. Chandrashekhara,A.N. Agarwal +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a finite element formulation is presented for modeling the behavior of laminated composites with integrated piezoelectric sensors and actuators, which is applicable for both thin and moderately thick plates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Free vibration of composite beams including rotary inertia and shear deformation
TL;DR: In this paper, exact solutions for the free vibration of symmetrically laminated composite beams are presented for the first-order shear deformation and rotary inertia have been included in the analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Delamination Prediction in Composite Beams with Built-In Piezoelectric Devices Using Modal Analysis and Neural Network
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of prescribed delamination on natural frequencies of laminated composite beam specimens is examined both experimentally and theoretically, and backpropagation neural network models are developed using the results from the beam theory and used to predict delamination size.
Journal ArticleDOI
Curing and mechanical characterization of a soy‐based epoxy resin system
TL;DR: A potentially inexpensive alternative epoxy resin system based on soybean oil has been developed for polymer composite applications as mentioned in this paper, which consists of mixtures of epoxidized fatty acid esters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Free vibration of composite beams using a refined shear flexible beam element
TL;DR: In this article, a finite element model based on a higher-order shear deformation theory is developed to study the free vibration characteristics of laminated composite beams and the effects of in-plane inertia and rotary inertia are considered in the formulation of the mass matrix.
