Postbuckling Behaviour of Anisotropic Laminated Composite Plates due to Shear Loading
Keywords:
Nonlinear equations, Von Karman's assumption
Abstract
This study investigates postbuckling behaviour of laminated composite plates using a nine-noded shear flexible quadrilateral plate element. The formulation includes nonlinear strain-displacement relation based on von Karman's assumption. The nonlinear governing equations are solved through iteration. A detailed parametric study is carried out to bring out the influence of ply-angle, aspect ratio and material properties on the postbuckling strength of laminates due to in-plane shear loads.
