Abstract
The present study deals with both experimental and numerical investigation on buckling effects of laminated composite plates subjected to varying temperature and moisture. A simple laminated plate model is developed for the buckling of composite plates subjected to adverse hygrothermal loading. A computer program based on FEM in MATLAB environment is developed to perform all necessary computations. The woven fiber Glass/Epoxy specimens were hygrothermally conditioned in a humidity cabinet where theconditions were maintained at temperatures of 300K-425K and relative humidity (RH) ranging from 0-1% for moisture concentrations. All the investigations are made with a symmetric cross-ply laminates. The present study deals with both experimental and numerical investigation on buckling behavior of laminated composite plates subjected to varying temperature and moisture concentration. Quantitative results are presented to show the effects of geometry, material and lamination parameters of woven fiber laminate onbuckling of composite plates for different temperature and moisture concentrations with simply supported boundary conditions with different aspect and side-to-thickness ratios. Experimental results show that there is reduction in buckling loads in KN with the increase in temperature and moisture concentration for laminates with clamped-free-clamped-free boundary conditions
期刊介绍:
The Electronic Journal of Structural Engineering (EJSE) is an international forum for the dissemination and discussion of leading edge research and practical applications in Structural Engineering. It comprises peer-reviewed technical papers, discussions and comments, and also news about conferences, workshops etc. in Structural Engineering. Original papers are invited from individuals involved in the field of structural engineering and construction. The areas of special interests include the following, but are not limited to: Analytical and design methods Bridges and High-rise Buildings Case studies and failure investigation Innovations in design and new technology New Construction Materials Performance of Structures Prefabrication Technology Repairs, Strengthening, and Maintenance Stability and Scaffolding Engineering Soil-structure interaction Standards and Codes of Practice Structural and solid mechanics Structural Safety and Reliability Testing Technologies Vibration, impact and structural dynamics Wind and earthquake engineering. EJSE is seeking original papers (research or state-of the art reviews) of the highest quality for consideration for publication. The papers will be published within 3 to 6 months. The papers are expected to make a significant contribution to the research and development activities of the academic and professional engineering community.
