The course objectives are to train students to be able to design composite structures, select composite materials, conduct stress analyses of selected practical applications using laminated plate theories and appropriate strength criteria, and be familiar with the properties and response of composite structures subjected to mechanical loading under static and cyclic conditions.
Basic concepts of composite materials, Hooke’s law for different types of materials, Macromechanical analysis of a lamina, Strength failure theories of an angle lamina, Hygrothermal effects, Micromechanicalanalysis of a lamina, Stress-strain relations and macromechanical analysis of laminates, Analysis and designof laminates, Bending of laminated beams.
