Abstract
Understanding the flutter characteristics of heated laminated plates, both with and without cutout, is crucial. This study presents the first exploration of flutter analysis in a thermal environment for a laminated plate featuring a cutout. To facilitate this study, the motion equations of the heated laminated plate with a cutout are derived using the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT), incorporating a nonlinear term. Employing the isogeometric method combined with multi-path coupling technology, we establish accurate geometric and solution domains for the laminated plate. The effects of the thermal stresses and the aerodynamics calculated by the linear piston theory are considered. The accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed model are validated through several comparisons with ANSYS results and existing solutions. Additionally, the study examines the impact of key parameters on flutter characteristics, including thermal conditions, number of layers, lay-up angles, inflow angles, and cutout dimensions. The insights gained from this research will serve as a valuable benchmark for future analyses and design concerning flutter characteristics.
期刊介绍:
Thin-walled structures comprises an important and growing proportion of engineering construction with areas of application becoming increasingly diverse, ranging from aircraft, bridges, ships and oil rigs to storage vessels, industrial buildings and warehouses.
Many factors, including cost and weight economy, new materials and processes and the growth of powerful methods of analysis have contributed to this growth, and led to the need for a journal which concentrates specifically on structures in which problems arise due to the thinness of the walls. This field includes cold– formed sections, plate and shell structures, reinforced plastics structures and aluminium structures, and is of importance in many branches of engineering.
The primary criterion for consideration of papers in Thin–Walled Structures is that they must be concerned with thin–walled structures or the basic problems inherent in thin–walled structures. Provided this criterion is satisfied no restriction is placed on the type of construction, material or field of application. Papers on theory, experiment, design, etc., are published and it is expected that many papers will contain aspects of all three.
