In composites design, the symmetric or balanced laminate, consisting of four fixed angles of unidirectional layers, has been the choice of designers for years because of its metal-like behavior.

Composite laminates have wide applications in many industries. Traditional three-dimensional finite-element analysis for repetitive simulations of composite laminates is impractical owing to large ...

Composite laminates, consisting of bonded layers of different materials, find extensive applications in various industries, including aerospace, automobiles, and shipbuilding sectors due to their ...

Composite designers determined early on that sandwiching a low-density, lightweight core material between thin face sheets can dramatically increase a laminate's stiffness with little added weight. A ...

Sandwich composites can be visualized as splitting a monolithic composite laminate in the middle and inserting a low-density material such as a honeycomb core in the middle. This construction ...
