Classical Analysis of Laminated Composite Material Plates

In depth

A closer look at The Laminator

The Laminator is an engineering program written for Windows 95/98/Me/NT4/2000/XP that analyzes laminated composite plates according to classical laminated plate theory. Familiarity with such analysis is assumed. Input consists of ply material properties, material strengths, ply fiber orientation and stacking sequence, mechanical loads and/or strains, and temperature and moisture loads. Output consists of apparent laminate material properties, ply stiffness and compliance matrices, laminate 'ABD' matrices, laminate loads and mid-plane strains, ply stresses and strains in global and material axes, and load factors for ply failure based on Maximum Stress, Maximum Strain, Tsai-Hill, Hoffman, and Tsai-Wu failure theories. The symbols and conventions used by the program generally follow those given in Mechanics of Composite Materials, by Robert M. Jones, Scripta Book Company, 1975. A micromechanics calculator is also included for estimating lamina properties for given fiber and matrix properties.
