The objective is to apply a generalised regression neural network (GRNN) to construct a surrogate model for multi-objective optimisation of composite blades. Four objectives are considered: the maximum displacement of the blade tip (to be minimised) and three metrics measuring the difference between the intrinsic frequency and the excitation frequency, called ‘resonance margin’ (to be maximised). Most of the lay-up angles of the composite blade are fixed and only two directions are considered as variables. Subsequently, the study incorporates the Non-dominated Sequential Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) for multi-objective optimisation. The optimisation scheme achieves a dual enhancement of blade stiffness and resonance margin. After optimisation, the maximum displacement of the blade tip is reduced by about 32% compared with the pre-optimisation.

However, the out-of-plane, through-the-thickness stresses may result in delamination failure, and most existing composite plate models are typically unable to capture them with a good accuracy-to-cost ratio. In this paper, we propose a stress recovery method based on Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) to overcome this challenge. The proposed method involves two steps: first, a displacement solution is obtained by applying the classical composite plate theory based on a Galerkin isogeometric formulation. This is followed by the computation of the in-plane stress derivatives required to accurately recover the out-of-plane stresses, directly enforcing strong-form equilibrium across the plate thickness. The governing equations employ Kirchhoff plate theory, while the equilibrium equations and numerical integration, using the composite trapezoidal rule, discretize the plate thickness into layers to extend stress recovery to three dimensions. This method requires high-order continuity; therefore, isogeometric analysis, known for its high accuracy and continuity properties, becomes a desirable option. Our efficient method shows remarkable accuracy, matching Pagano’s solution for cross-ply laminates and 3D FEM for angle-ply, symmetric, and unsymmetric across various test scenarios.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":281,"journal":{"name":"Composite Structures","volume":"365 ","pages":"Article 119144"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143834417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The inverse finite element method (iFEM) has been deemed as one of the promising techniques due to its full-field reconstruction capability. However, engineering large-scale composite panels usually suffer from complex service conditions such as non-uniform distributed loads and internal displacement constraints. Under such conditions, strain in inverse elements may distribute irregularly so that measured strain at the element’s center can no longer reflect the strain distribution over the entire element, leading to a reduction of deformation sensing accuracy. This paper proposes a regional integral iFEM to improve the deformation sensing accuracy under complex service conditions. The method incorporates a service dimension constrains-based element partition strategy to generate inverse elements so that strain in the local element region is as uniform as possible. Besides, a regional integral error function (RIEF) is developed for deformation reconstruction, using strain over the element for deformation sensing instead of the strain at the element’s center. This method is validated through simulation and experiment of a large-scale multilayer-heterogeneity composite panel, and the maximum error decreased by 44% for all laboratory test cases.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":281,"journal":{"name":"Composite Structures","volume":"365 ","pages":"Article 119149"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143826058","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work investigated the applicability of artificial neural networks for the fast and accurate generation of damage patterns for a composite plate with a cut-out under a variety of loading conditions. The purpose is to explore the neural networks as surrogate models capable of returning damage pattern predictions on par with a finite element model, but requiring less computational effort at run time. Data for training and evaluating these neural networks was generated through nonlinear finite element models. Different neural networks, such as a standard Feedforward Neural Network and a Hybrid Neural Network that combines a Feedforward Neural Network with a convolutional decoder, have been tested for this task. To quantify the resemblance between the predicted and actual outputs in terms of colours and contours, different performance metrics have been explored. The use of the Structural Similarity Index (SSIM), in addition to the standard Mean Square Error (MSE), was explored to improve the visual quality of outputs from the neural network. With an average test MSE of 0.0014, SSIM of 0.9814, and computational speedup factor of 34, the Hybrid Neural Network has been shown to accurately and efficiently predict the damage patterns of the open-hole laminate, thereby constituting a promising candidate for a surrogate model of open-hole composite panels.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":281,"journal":{"name":"Composite Structures","volume":"364 ","pages":"Article 119121"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143783626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results reveal that 2 % BC optimally increases compressive strength by 11.0 %, and a strength prediction model is proposed. Apparent crack analysis demonstrates that BC-modified SSC exhibits diverse cracking patterns. The transverse strain of SSC containing 2 % BC is 1.2 times greater than unmodified SSC. Microcrack monitoring indicates that the AE signal amplitude of SSC modified with 2 % BC extends beyond the original range of 35–60 dB observed in pure SSC paste, reaching 60–80 dB due to the fracture of BC. Furthermore, the inclusion of 2 % BC increases the proportion of shear cracks in SSC composites to 44.1 %, primarily attributed to the dislocation effect induced by BC interlocking. Microstructure observations show that BC tends to induce cracking in interfacial transition zone. At the optimal dosage, BC densifies the matrix and significantly enhances energy dissipation through longitudinal splitting and transverse fracture. Thus, the appropriate incorporation of BC can markedly improve the compressive cracking resistance of SSC composites.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":281,"journal":{"name":"Composite Structures","volume":"365 ","pages":"Article 119127"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143816256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
