Abstract
In view of the low-damping and large-amplitude vibration phenomena induced by the lightweight composite material structural design in the aerospace field, this paper proposes embedding high-damping shape memory alloy (SMA) with different configurations into composite plate, and focuses on the study on vibration behavior and dynamic stress distribution of composite laminated plate (CLP). A systematic analysis is conducted on six configurations of composite laminated plates, the influence of the embedded shape memory alloy configurations on the frequency characteristics of composite laminated plates is clarified. Based on the damping ratio of the SMA and the composite material determined through sweep-frequency experiments, the impact of SMA configurations on the damping properties of CLP under different boundary conditions is evaluated. To investigate whether CLP can suffer from strength failure or interlaminar separation during service, stress distribution analysis is performed on CLP with multi-configuration SMA, and the stress variation along the thickness direction is presented. The results demonstrate that the embedding of SMA with different configurations exerts complex influences on the vibration behaviors of CLP under various boundary conditions and can provide favorable vibration suppression performance. The complex-configured SMA can introduce tailorable modifications to the dynamic stress distribution of CLP at different orders.
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.
