TLDR
In this article, the response of a finite-width composite laminate under uniform axial strain is treated through the application of classical elasticity theory, and finite-difference solution techniques are employed to obtain solutions for stresses and displacements throughout the region.Abstract:
The response of a finite-width composite laminate under uniform axial strain is treated through the application of classical elasticity theory. Finite-difference solution techniques are employed to obtain solutions for stresses and displacements throughout the region. Results for material properties typical of a high modulus graphite-epoxy composite material system are presented which explain the mechanism of shear transfer within a symmetric laminate. In addition, results of this work are compared to those given in a recent approximate formulation.read more

Thermoelastic edge effects and warping of cross-reinforced composite plates
TL;DR: In this article, an analytic solution has been obtained for the warping and edge effects in a plate with structure ±ϕ, in a homogeneous temperature field, and it was found that for the parameters typical of glass-reinforced plastics as the number of layers increases the influence of the nonsymmetry of the structure becomes less perceptible.

Calculation of Interlaminar Stresses in Composite Laminates by a New Method
TL;DR: In this paper, a new method is used to calculate interlaminar stresses and edge effects in composite laminates, and the edge effects are calculated using a weighted average of the interlaminar stresses and edges.

Optimization of composite laminates with free edges under extension load and thermal load
TL;DR: In this paper, a single-objective and multiobjective optimization of composite laminates with free-edge boundaries is presented. And the results show the effect of geometric conditions of free edges as well as the type of loading (mechanical and thermal) on the optimization of composites.
