TL;DR: In this article, a static analysis of laminated composite doubly-curved shells using refined kinematic models with polynomial and non-polynomial functions was presented.
Abstract: This paper presents a static analysis of laminated composite doubly-curved shells using refined kinematic models with polynomial and non-polynomial functions recently introduced in the literature. To be specific, Maclaurin, trigonometric, exponential and zig-zag functions are employed. The employed refined models are based on the equivalent single layer theories. A simply supported shell is subjected to different mechanical loads, specifically: bi-sinusoidal, uniform, patch, hydrostatic pressure and point load. The governing equations are derived from the Principle of Virtual displacement and solved via Navier-Type closed form solutions. The results are compared with results from Layer-wise solutions and different higher order shear deformation theories available. It is shown that refined models with non-polynomial terms are able to accurately predict the through-thethickness displacement and stress distributions maintaining less computational effort compared to a Layer-wise models.

TL;DR: In this article , the effect of thin facings on the stiffness, strength, amount of absorbed energy, and damage of the synclastic panels with an auxetic core subjected to static compression was analyzed.
Abstract: Only a few research works show a method for creating doubly curved surfaces using single-layer auxetic structures. There are no studies regarding sandwich wood-based synclastic panels with the auxetic core. The main goal of this work was to determine the effect of the thin facings on the stiffness, strength, amount of absorbed energy, and damage of the synclastic panels with an auxetic core subjected to static compression. The facings of sandwich panels were manufactured out of cardboard and a copolyester of polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG). WoodEpox® composite was used as a material of the core structure. Synclastic panels were tested experimentally and analyzed using the finite element method. In addition, the damage process of the core and facings was described. The results of studies have shown a significant impact of the facing type of sandwich panel on its overall stiffness and ability to absorb energy. Cardboard panels are significantly more rigid than those made of PETG. Also, cardboard panels show a high ability to absorb energy. • Wood-based synclastic sandwich panels with an auxetic core were manufactured. • The effect of facings was analyzed. • The strength, stiffness, energy absorption, and damage were analyzed. • The numerical calculations were adopted. • A positive correlation between the type of facings and the mechanical properties was confirmed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce basic concepts of stiffness and strength underlying the mechanics of fiber-reinforced advanced composite materials, such as continuous-fiber composites, which deal with the relations between macroscopic engineering properties and the microscopic distribution of the material's constituents.
Abstract: This module introduces basic concepts of stiffness and strength underlying the mechanics of fiber-reinforced advanced composite materials. This aspect of composite materials technology is sometimes terms “micromechanics,” because it deals with the relations between macroscopic engineering properties and the microscopic distribution of the material’s constituents, namely the volume fraction of fiber. This module will deal primarily with unidirectionally-reinforced continuous-fiber composites, and with properties measured along and transverse to the fiber direction.

TL;DR: In this article, a higher-order shear deformation theory for elastic shells was developed for shells laminated of orthotropic layers, which is a modification of the Sanders' theory and accounts for parabolic distribution of the transverse shear strains through thickness of the shell and tangential stress-free boundary conditions on the boundary surfaces.
