The theory is based on an assumed displacement field, in which the

surface displacements are expanded in powers of the thickness coordinate

up to the third order. The theory allows parabolic description of the

transverse shear stresses, and therefore the shear correction factors of

the usual shear deformation theory are not required in the present

theory. The theory accounts for small strains but moderately large

displacements (i.e., von Karman strains). Exact solutions for certain

cross-ply shells and finite-element models of the theory are also

developed. The finite-element model is based on independent

approximations of the displacements and bending moments (i.e., mixed

formulation), and therefore only C°-approximations are required.

· Further, the mixed variational formulations developed herein suggest

that the bending moments can be interpolated using discontinuous

approximations (across interelement boundaries). The finite element is

used to analyze cross-ply and angle-ply laminated shells for bending,

vibration and transient response. Numerical results are presented to

show the effects of boundary conditions, lamination scheme (i.e.,

bending-stretching coupling and material anisotropy) shear deformation

and geometric nonlinearity on deflections and frequencies. Many of the

numerical results presented here for laminated shells should serve as

references for future investigations.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

The analyses of composite laminates in the past have been based on

one of the following two classes of theories:

(i) Three-dimensional elasticity theory

(ii) Laminated plate theories

In three—dimensional elasticity theory each layer is treated as an

elastic continuum with possibly distinct material properties in adjacent

layers. Thus the number of governing differential equations will be 3N,

where N is the number of layers in the laminate. At the interface of

two layers the continuity of displacements and stresses give additional

relations. Solution of the equations becomes intractable as the number

of layers becomes large.

In a 'laminated plate theory', it is assumed that the laminate is

in a state of plane stress, the individual laminae are elastic, and

there is perfect bonding between layers. The laminate properties (i.e.

stiffnesses) are obtained by integrating the lamina properties through

the thickness. Thus, laminate plate theories are equivalent single-

layer theories. In the ’classical laminate plate theory' (CLPT), which

is an extension of the classical plate theory (CPT) to laminated plates,

the transverse stress components are ignored. The classical laminate

plate theory is adequate for many engineering problems. However,

laminated plates made of advanced filamentary composite materials, whose

'elastic to shear modulus ratios are very large, are susceptible to

thickness effects because their effective transverse shear moduli are

significantly smaller than the effective elastic moduli along fiber

directions. These high ratios of elastic to shear modulus render the

classical laminated plate theory inadequate for the analysis of thick

composite plates.

The first, stress-based, shear deformation plate theory is due to

Reissner [1-3]. The theory is based on a linear distribution of the

inplane normal and shear stresses through the thickness,

<¤>(h /6) (h /6) (h /6)

where (61,62) and 66 are the normal and shear stresses, (Ml,M2) and M6

are the associated bending moments (which are functions of the inplane

coordinates x and y), z is the thickness coordinate and h is the total

thickness of the plate. The distribution of the transverse normal and

shear stresses (63, 64 and 65) is determined from the equilibrium

equations of the three-dimensional elasticity theory. The differential

equations and the boundary conditions of the theory were obtained using

Castigliano‘s theorem of least work.

The origin of displacement-based theories is apparently attributed

to Basset [4l. Basset assumed that the displacement components in a

shell can be expanded in a series of powers of the thickness

coordinate 5. For example, the displacement component ul along

the 51 coordinate is written in the form

(1.2ö)

where 51 and 52 are the curvilinear coordinates in the middle surface of

the shell, and uän) have the meaning

Basset's work did not receive as much attention as it deserves. In a

1949 NACA technical note, Hildebrand, Reissner and Thomas [5] presented

(also see Hencky [6]) a displacement-based shear deformation theory for

shells, which obviously can be specialized to flat plates. They assumed

the following displacement field,

¤l(a1.+;2.c) = ¤(6l,«:2) + c ¢X(-21,62)¤2(;1.+;2.c) = 1/(61,62) + c ¢y(»;1.-:2)

¤3(+;1.62.c) = w(a1.62) (1-3)The differential equations of the theory are then derived using the

principle of minimum total potential energy. This gives five

differential equations in the five displacement functions, u, v,

w, ox, and ay.

The shear deformation theory based on the displacement field in Eq.

(1.3) for plates is often referred to as the Mindlin's plate theory.

Mindlin [7] presented a complete theory for isotropic plates based on

the displacement field (1.3) taken from Hencky [6]. We shall refer to

the shear deformation theory based on the displacement field (1.3) as

the first-order shear deformation theory.

A generalization of the first-order shear deformation plate theory

for homogeneous isotropic plates to arbitrarily laminated anisotropic

plates is due to Yang, Norris, and Stavsky [8] and Whitney and Pagano

[9]. Extensions of the classical von Karman plate theory [10] to shear

Page 9: m ß [ FE; · In a 'laminated plate theory', it is assumed that the laminate is in a state of plane stress, the individual laminae are elastic, and there is perfect bonding between

4

deformation theories can be found in the works of Reissner [11,12]

Medwadowski [13], Schmidt [14] and Reddy [15].

Higher-order, displacement-based, shear deformation theories have

been investigated by Librescu [16] and Lo, Christensen and wu [17]. In

these higher-order theories, with each additional power of the thickness

coordinate an additional dependent unknawn is introduced into the

theory. Levinson [18] and Murthy [19] presented third-order theories

that assume transverse inextensibility. The nine displacement functions

were reduced to five by requiring that the transverse shear stresses

vanish on the bounding planes of the plate. However, both authors used

the equilibrium equations of the first—order theory in their analysis.

Stating in other words, the higher-order terms of the displacement field

are accounted for in the calculation of the strains but not in the

governing differential equations or in the boundary conditions. These

theories can be shown (see Librescu and Reddy [20]) to be the same as

those described by Reissner [1-3]. Recently, Reddy [21,22] developed a

new third—order plate theory, which is extended in the present study to

laminated shells.

1.2 Review of the Literature on Shells

Shell structures are abundent in structures around us on the earth

and in space. Use of shell structures dates back to ancient Rome, where

the roofs of the Pantheon can be classified today as thick shells.

Shell structures have been built by experience and intuition. No

‘1ogical and scientific study has been conducted on the design of shells

until the eighteenth century.

Page 10: m ß [ FE; · In a 'laminated plate theory', it is assumed that the laminate is in a state of plane stress, the individual laminae are elastic, and there is perfect bonding between

5

The earliest need for design criterion for shell structures

probably came with the development of the steam engine and its attendent

accessories. However, it was not until 1888, by Love, that the first

general theory was presented. Subsequent theoretical efforts have been

directed towards improvements of Love's formulation and the solutions of

the associated differential equations.

An ideal theory of shells require a realistic modeling of the

actual geometry and material properties, and an appropriate description

of the deformation. Even if we can take care of these requirments and

set up the governing equations, analytical solutions to most shell

problems are nevertheless limited in scope, and in general do not apply

to arbitrary shapes, load distributions, and boundary conditions.

Consequently, numerical approximation methods must be used to predict

the actual behavior.

Many of the classical theories were developed originally for thin

elastic shells, and are based on the Love—Kirchhoff assumptions (or the

first approximation theory): (1) plane sections normal to the

undeformed middle surface remain plane and normal to the deformed middle

surface, (2) the normal stresses perpendicular to the middle surface can

be neglected in the stress-strain relations, and (3) the transverse

displacement is independent of the thickness coordinate. The first

assumption leads to the neglect of the transverse shear strains.

Surveys of various classical shell theories can be found in the works of

Naghdi [23] and Bert [24,25l. These theories, known as the Love's first

approximation theories (see Love [26]) are expected to yield

sufficiently accurate results when (i) the lateral dimension-to-

Page 11: m ß [ FE; · In a 'laminated plate theory', it is assumed that the laminate is in a state of plane stress, the individual laminae are elastic, and there is perfect bonding between

6

thickness ratio (a/h) is large; (ii) the dynamic excitations are within

the low-frequency range; (iii) the material anisotropy is not severe. _

However, application of such theories to layered anisotropic composite

shells could lead to as much as 30% or more errors in deflections,

stresses, and frequencies.

As pointed out by Koiter [27], refinements to Love's first

approximation theory of thin elastic shells are meaningless, unless the

effects of transverse shear and normal stresses are taken into account

in the refined theory. The transverse normal stress is, in general, of

order h/R (thickness to radius ratio) times the bending stresses,

whereas the transverse shear stresses, obtained from equilibrium

conditions, are of order h/a (thickness to the length of long side of

the panel) times the bending stresses. Therefore, for a/R < 10, the

transverse normal stress is negligible compared to the transverse shear

stresses.

Ambartsumyan [28,29] was considered to be the first one to analyze

laminates that incorporated the bending—stretching coupling. The

laminates that Ambartsumyan analyzed were now known as laminated

orthotropic shells because the individual orthotropic layers were

oriented such that the principal axes of material symmetry coincided

with the principal coordinates of the shell reference surface. In 1962,

Dong, Pister and Taylor [30] formulated a theory of thin shells

laminated of anisotropic shells. Cheng and Ho [31] presented an

analysis of laminated anisotropic cylindrical shells using Flugge‘s

shell theory [32]. A first approximation theory for the unsymmetric

deformation of nonhomogeneous, anisotropic, elastic cylindrical shells

was derived by widera and his colleagues [33,34] by means of asymptotic

integration of the elasticity equation. For a homogeneous, isotropic

material, the theory reduced to the Donnell's equation. An exposition

of various shell theories can be found in the article by Bert [35].

The effect of transverse shear deformation and transverse isotropy

as well as thermal expansion through the shell thickness were considered

by Gulati and Essenberg [36] and Zukas and Vinson [37]. Dong and Tso

[38] presented a theory applicable to layered, orthotropic cylindrical

shells. whitney and Sun [39] developed a higher order shear deformation

theory. This theory is based on a displacement field in which the

displacements in the surface of the shell are expanded as linear

functions of the thickness coordinate and the transverse displacement is

expanded as a quadratic function of the thickness coordinate. Recently,

Reddy [40] presented a shear deformation version of the Sanders shell

theory for laminated composite shells. Such theories account for

constant transverse shear stresses through thickness, and therefore

require a correction to the transverse shear stiffness.

As far as the finite element of shells is concerned, the early

works can be attributed to those of Dong [41], Dong and Selna [42],

wilson and Parsons [43], and Schmit and Monforton [44]. The studies in

[41-44] are confined to the analysis of orthotropic shells of

revolution. Other finite element analyses of lamianted anisotropic

composite shells include the works of Panda and Natarajan [45],

Shivakumar and Krishna Murty [46], Rao [47], Seide and Chang [48],

Venkatesh and Rao [49], Reddy and his colleagues [50-53], and Noor and

his colleagues [54-56].

1.3 Present Study

while the three—dimensional theories give more accurate results

than the lamination (classical or (see Seide [57], Srinivas et al.

[58,59] and Pagano, et al. [60-61]) shear deformation) theories, they

are intractable. For example, the 'local' theory of Pagano [62] results °

in a mathematical model consisting of 23N partial differential equations

in the laminate's midplane coordinates and 7N edge boundary conditions,

where N is the number of layers in the laminate. The computational

costs, especially for geometrically nonlinear problems or transient

analysis using the finite element method, preclude the use of such a

theory. As demonstrated by Reddy [21,22] and his colleagues [63-65],

the refined plate theory provides improved global response estimates for

deflections, vibration frequencies and buckling loads for laminated

composite plates. The present study, motivated by the above findings,

deals with the extention of the third-order plate theory of Reddy

[21,22] to laminated composite shells. The theory also accounts for the

von Karman strains. The resulting theory contains, as special cases,

the classical and first—order theories of plates and shells. Mixed

variational formulations and associated finite—element models are

developed in this dissertation. The significant and novel contributions

of the research conducted for this dissertation are:

1. The Formulation of a new third-order theory of lamianted shells

that accounts for a parabolic distribution of the transverse

shear stresses and the von Karman strains.

Page 14: m ß [ FE; · In a 'laminated plate theory', it is assumed that the laminate is in a state of plane stress, the individual laminae are elastic, and there is perfect bonding between

9

2. The derivation of the exact solutions of the new theory for

certain simply supported laminated composite shells.

3. The development of a mixed variational principle for the new

theory of shells, which yields as special cases those of the

classical (e.g., Love—Kirchhoff) and the first order theory. _

4. The development of a mixed, C°—finite—element and its

application to the bending, vibration and transient analysis of

laminated composite shells.

The theoretical formulation of the new shell theory is presented in

Chapter 2, and the exact solutions for certain shells are presented in

Chapter 3. Chapter 4 contains the development of a mixed variational

principle, and the associated finite element model is described in

Chapter 5. Chapter 6 contains the discussion of numerical results of

the bending, vibration and transient analysis of laminated composite

plates and shells. Comparison of the present results with the

experimental results for certain unidirectional and bidirectional

' composites show excellent agreement. Many additional numerical results

of laminated composite shells are also included, which should serve as

references for future investigations. A summary, conclusions and

recommendations of the present study are presented in Chapter 7.

CHAPTER 2

FORMULATION OF THE NEW THEORY

2.1 Kinematics

Let (51,22,;] denote the orthogonal curvilinear coordinates (or

shell coordinates) such that the gl- and 52- curves are lines of

curvature on the midsurface ;=0, and ;- curves are straight lines

perpendicular to the surface ;=0 . For cylindrical and spherical shells

the lines of principal curvature coincide with the coordinate lines.

The values of the principal radii of curvature of the middle surface are

denoted by Rl and R2.

The position vector of a point on the middle surface is denoted

by r, and the position of a point at distance ; from the middle surface

is denoted by R. The distance ds between points [51,52,0) and [5l+dg1,

g2+d52,0) is determined by (see Fig. 2.1)

2.2 Displacement Field

The shell under consideration is composed of a finite number of

orthotropic layers of uniform thickness (see Fig. 2.2). Let N denote

the number of layers in the shell, and ck and gk_l be the top and bottom

g-coordinates of the k—th layer. Before we proceed, a set of

simplifying assumptions that provide a reasonable description of the

behaviors are as follows:

1. thickness to radius and other dimensions of shell are small.

2. transverse normal stress is negligible

3. strains are small, yet displacement can be moderately large

compared to thickness

Following the procedure similar to that presented in [21] for flat

plates, we begin with the following displacement field:

V(sl„s2,c,t) = (l + %;]v + c¢2 + czwz + cßöz

W(6l,62,c„t) = w (2-5)

surface and 61 and 62 are the rotations at 5 = 0 of norma1s to the

(u,v,w,6l,62,w1,w2,6l,62) are functions of 51 and 52 on1y. The

particu1ar choice of the disp1acement fie1d in Eq. (2.5) is dictated by

the desire to represent the transverse shear strains by quadratic

functions of the thickness coordinate, 5, and by the requirement that

the transverse norma1 strain be zero. The kinematics of deformation of

a transverse norma1 in various theories is shown in Fig. 2.3.

The functions wi and ai wi11 be determined using the condition that

the transverse shear stresses, 613 = 65 and 623 = 64 vanish on the top

and bottom surfaces of the she11:

These conditions are equiva1ent to, for she11s Taminated of orthotropic

Tayers, the requirement that the corresponding strains be zero on these

surfaces. The transverse shear strains of a she11 with two principa1

radii of curvature are given by

Exact solutions of the partial differential equations (2.19) on

arbitrary domains and for general conditions is not possible. However,

Ifor simply supported shells whose projection in the xlxz-plane is a

rectangle, the linear version of Eq. (2.19) can be solved exactly,

provided the lamination scheme is of antisymmetric cross-ply [O°/90°/

0°/90°...] or symmetric cross-ply [O°/9O°...]S type. The Navier

solution exists if the following stiffness are zero [21]:

CHAPTER 4

MIXED VARIATIONAL PRINCIPLES

4.1 Introduction

The variational formulations used for developing plate and shell

bending elements can be classified into three major categories: (i)

formulations based on the principle of virtual displacements (or the

principle of total potential energy), (ii) formulations based on the

principle of virtual forces (or the principle of complementary energy)

and (iii) formulations based on mixed variational principles(Hu—washizu-

Reissner's principles). The finite-element models based on these

formulations are called, respectively, the displacement models,

eguilibrium models and mixed models.

In the principle of virtual displacements, one assumes that the

kinematic relations (i.e., strain—displacement relations and geometry

boundary conditions) are satisfied exactly (i.e., point-wise) by the

displacement field, and the equilibrium equations and force boundary

conditions are derived as the Euler equations. No a—priori assumption

concerning the constitutive behavior (i.e., stress-strain relations) is

necessary in using the principle. The principle of (the minimum) total

potential energy is a special case of the principle of virtual

displacements applied to solid bodies that are characterized by the

strain energy function U such that

29

develop a finite-element model of a shell theory, the kinematic

relations are satisfied point-wise but the equilibrium equations are met

only in an integral (or variational) sense. The principle of

complementary potential energy, a special case of the principle of

virtual forces, can be used to develop equilibrium models that satisfy

the equilibrium equations point-wise but meet the strain compatibility

in a variational sense.

There are a number of mixed variational principles in elasticity

(see [66-73]). The phrase 'mixed' is used to imply the fact that both

the displacement (or primal) variables and (some of the) force (or dual)

variables are given equal importance in the variational formulations.

The associated finite—element models use independent approximations of

dependent variables appearing in the variational formulation. There are

two kinds of mixed models: (i) models in which both primal and dual

variables are interpolated independently in the interior and on the

boundary of an element, (ii) models in which the variables are

interpolated inside the element and their values on the boundary are

interpolated by the boundary values of the interpolation. The first

kind are often termed hybrid models, and the second kind are known

simply as the mixed models. In the present study the second kind (i.e.,

mixed model) will be discussed.

4.2 Mixed Variational Principles

To develop a mixed variational statement of the third-order

laminate theory, we rewrite Eq. (2.23) in matrix notation as follows:

{N} = l^*}{¤°} + {B*{{N} + lE*l{F’}

Now we proceed to develop a mixed variational statement of the

third-order laminate theory. In the present mixed formulation, we treat

in Eq. (4.3) can be stated as follows. Of all gossible configurations a

laminate can assume, the one that renders the functional HH1 stationarg

also satisfies the eguations of eguilibrium (2.19) and the kinematic—

we note that the variational staement in Eq. (4.3) contains the

CHAPTER 5

FINITE—ELEMENT MODELS

5.1 Introduction

The mixed variational principles presented in Chapter 4 can be used

to develop mixed Finite-element models, which contain the bending

moments as the primary variables along with the generalized

displacements. Historically, at least with regard to bending of plates,

the first mixed formulation is attributed to Herrmann [74,75] and Hellan

[76].

Since the bending moments do not enter the set of essential

boundary conditions, they are not required to be continuous across

interelement boundaries. Thus, one can develop mixed models with

discontinuous (between elements) bilinear or higher-order approximation

of the bending moments. The present section deals with the development

of a mixed model based on nH2.

5.2 Finite—Element Discretization

Let Q, the domain (i.e., the midplane) of the laminate, be

represented by a collection of Finite elements

— E —e e FQ = U Q , Q fW.Q = empty for e z F (5.1)e=l

where Q = Q L;r is the closure of the open domain Q and r is its

boundary. Over a typical element QB, each of the variables u, v, w,

etc. are interpolated by expressions of the form

N N Nu =

ä ujwj , v = jil vjwj , w = j;l wjoj (5.2)

34

Page 40: m ß [ FE; · In a 'laminated plate theory', it is assumed that the laminate is in a state of plane stress, the individual laminae are elastic, and there is perfect bonding between

35

etc., where {pj} denote the set of admissible interpolation functions

(see Reddy and Putcha [64]). Although the same set of interpolation

functions is used, for simplicity, to interpolate each of the dependent

variables, in general, different sets of interpolation can be used for

(u,v), w, (¢X,¢y), (M1,M2,M6) and (Pl,P2,P6). From an examination of

the variational statement in Eq. (4.6), it is clear that the linear,

quadratic, etc., interpolation functions of the Lagrange type are

admissible. The resulting element is called a C°—element, because gg

derivative of the dependent variable is required to be continuous across

interelement boundaries.

To develop the finite—element equations of a typical element, we

first compute the strains, rotations, etc. in terms of the interpolation

functions wj and nodal values uj, vj, etc. we have

Clearly, the element stiffness matrix is ngt symmetric. For the linear

case (i.e. [HN] = [0]), the element stiffness matrix is symmetric. The

finite-element models for the classical and first—order theories can be

obtained as special cases from Eq. (5.16). An explicit form of the

coefficients of the stiffness matrix in Eq. (5.16) is given in Appendix

B.

5.4 Solution Procedure

The assembled finite-element equations are of the form

{KD(A)|{A} = {F} (5-18)

where [KD] is the assembled stiffness matrix, unsymmetric in general,

and {A} is the global solution vector. Because the stiffness matrix is

a nonlinear function of the unknown solution, Eq. (5.18) should be

solved iteratively. Two iterative methods of analysis are quite

commonly used in the finite-element analysis of nonlinear problems: the

Picard type direction iteration and the Newton—Raphson iteration

methods. Here the Newton—Raphson method is used to solve the nonlinear

equations.

Suppose that the solution is required for a load of P. The load is

divided into a sequence of load steps API, AP2, ..., APn such that P

= .2 AP,. At any load step, Eq. (5.18) is solved iteratively to obtain

the=;olution. At the end of the r—th iteration the solution for the

next iteration is obtained solving the following equation

(RT(A”))(6A”*1) = - (R) E -(•(°(A')1(1’) + (6) (5.19)for the increment of the solution {6Ar+l}, and the total solution is

computed from

A geometrical explanation of the Newton—Raphson iteration is given in

Fig. 5.1.

For the finite—element models developed here, the tangent stiffness

matrix is symmetric. For example, the tangent stiffness matrix for the

model in Eq. (5.16) for plates (1/R1 = 1/R2 = 0) is given by[K11T]

where A is the square of the frequency. For transient analysis, Eq.

(5.24) can be reduced, after using the temporal approximation (see Reddy

[77]), to the form

(5.26)where{A}n+1 denotes the solution at time t = (n+l)At,At being the time

step. In the present study the Newmark beta method is used. In this

case [kl and {f} are given by (see Reddy [77])

[I2} = [Kl + aO[Ml

ao = —-Ä-? , al = dOAt , az = gg — I (5.27)(8At)

Once the solution {A} is known at time t = (n + 1)At, the first and

second derivatives (velocity and accelerations) of {A} at t = (n

+ l)At can be computed from

(5.28)

where ä3 = (1 — ¤)At and a4 = ¤At.

The evaluation of the element matrices requires numerical

integration. Reduced integration is used to evaluate the stiffness

coefficients associated with the shear energy terms. More specifically,

the 2 x 2 Gauss rule is used for shear terms and the standard 3 x 3

Gauss rule is used for the bending terms when the nine node quadratic

isoparametric element is considered.

CHAPTER 6

SAMPLE APPLICATIONS

6.1 Introduction

A number of representative problems are analyzed using the higher-

order theory developed in the present study. First few problems are

included here to illustrate the accuracy of the present theory. TheseI

problems are solved using the closed—form solutions presented in Chapter

3. Then problems that do not allow closed—form solutions are solved by

the mixed finite—element model described in Chapter 5.

The geometries of typical cylindrical and spherical shells are

shown in Fig. 6.1. Of course, plates are derived as special cases from

cylindrical or spherical shells.”

6.2 Exact Solutions

It is well known that the series solution in Eq. (3.3) converges

faster for uniform load than for a point load. For a sinusoidal

distribution of the transverse load, the series reduces tova single

term.

1. Four—layer, cross—ply (O/90/90/O) sguare lamiante under sinusoidalßThis example is included here to demonstrate the relative accuracy

of the present higher—order theory when compared to three-dimensional

elasticity theory and the first—order theory. Square, cross-ply

laminates under simply-supported boundary conditions [see Eq. (3.2)] and

sinusoidal distribution of the transverse load are studied for

deflections. The lamina properties are assumed to be

Figure 6.2 contains plots of the nondimensional center deflection [W =

wE2h3)/qOa4] versus the side to thickness ratio (a/h) obtained using

various theories. It is clear that the present third-order theory gives

the closest solution to the three-dimensional elasticity solution [60]

than either the first—order theory or the classical theory.l

2. An isotropic spherical shell under point load at the center.

The problem data is

R1 = R2 = 96.0 in., a = b = 32.0 int, h = 0.1 in.,

El = E2 =107 psi, v = 0.3, intensity of load = 100 lbs.

A comparison of the center transverse deflection of the present theory

(HSDT) with that obtained using the first—order shear deformation theory

(FSDT) and classical shell theory (CST) for various terms in the series

is presented in Table 1. It should be noted that Vlasov [79] did not

consider transverse shear strains in his study. The difference between

the values predicted by HSDT and FSDT is not significant for the thin

isotropic shell problem considered here.

3. Cross-ply spherical shells under sinusoidal, uniform, and pointlgggs.

The geometric and material parameters used here are the same as

those used in Problem 1. Table 2-4 contain the nondimensionalized

center deflection of various cross-ply shells under sinusoidal, uniform,

and point loads, respectively. The difference between the solutions

predicted by the higher—order theory and the first-order theory

increases with the increasing value of R/a. Also, the difference is the

displacement and bending moments obtained by various investigators

(using the linear theory). The agreement between the present solution

and others is very good.

2. Rectangular laminates under uniformly distributed load

Figure 6.6 contains load—deflection curves for a simply supported

square unidirectional laminate (0°) under uniformly distributed load.

The following geometric and material properties are used:

a = b = 12 in., h = 0.138 in.

E1 = 3 x 106psi, E2 = 1.28 x 106psi, G12 = 613 = 623 = 0.37 x 106psi

v = 0.32

The experimental results and classical solutions are taken from the

paper by Zaghloul and Kennedy [86]. The agreement between the present

solution and the experimental solution is extremely good.

Figure 6.7 contains load—deflection curves for a clamped

bidirectional laminate [0/90/90/0] under uniformly distributed load.

The geometric parameters and layer properties are given by

a = b = 12 in., h = 0.096 in.,

E1 = 1.8282 x 106 psi, E2 = 1.8315 x 106 psi,

G12 = 613 = 623 = 3.125 x 106 psi, u = 0.2395

The experimental results and the classical laminate solutions are taken

from [81]. The present solution is in good agreement with the

experimental results, and the difference is attributed to possible

errors in the simulation of the material properties and boundary

conditions.

Consider a clamped orthotropic cylinder with the following

geometric and material properties (see Fig. 6.8)

El = 2 x 106 psi, E2 = 7.5 x106 psi

a = 10 in. , P = 6.41/« psi

This problem has an analytical solution (see [78]) for linear case,

and Rao [47] used the finite-element method to solve the same problem.

Both are based on the classical theory. The center deflections from

[78] and [47] are 0.000367 in. and 0.000366 in., respectively. Chao and

Reddy [52] obtained 0.0003764 in. and 0.0003739 in. using the finite-

element model based on the first-order shear deformation theory and 3-D

degenerate element, respectively. The current result is 0.0003761 in.,

which is closer to Chao and Reddy [52], as expected.

For the nonlinear analysis of the same problem, the prsent results

are compared to those of Chang and Sawamiphakdi [81] and Chao and Reddy

[52] in Fig. 6.9, which contains plots of the center deflection versus

the load obtained by various investigators. The agreement between

various results is very good.

the present study are in general a little higher.

6.3.3 Transient Analysis

The selection of a time step is a critical problem in transient

analysis. we may expect better results if smaller time steps are

used. In practice, one wishes to take as large a time step as possible

to save computational expense. In the prsent study, the selection of

time step follows that given by Tsui and Tong [85]. Tsui and Tong

presented an estimate formula of the time step for conditionally stable

CHAPTER 7

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS e7.1 Summary and Conclusions

The present study dealt with the following major topics:

(i) The development of a third-order shear deformation theory of

laminated composite doubly—curved shells. The theory

accounts for (a) the parabolic variation of the transverse

shear strains, and (b) the von Karman strains, It does not

require the use of the shear correction coefficients.

(ii) The development of the closed—form solutions (for the linear

theory) for the simply supported cross-ply laminates. These

solutions can be used for a check in the numerical analysis

of shells.

(iii) The construction of a mixed variational principle for the

third-order theory that includes the classical theory and the

first order theory as special cases.

(iv) The development and application of the finite—element model

of the third-order theory for laminated composite shells,

accounting for the geometric nonlinearity in the sense of von”

Karman.

The increased accuracy of the present third-order theory over the

— classical or first—order shear deformation theory is demonstrated via

examples that have either the three—dimensional elasticity solution or

experimental results. Many of the other results on bending, vibration

and transient analysis included here can serve as references for future

investigations.A

7.2 Some Comments on Mixed Models

The displacement model of the classical laminate theory requires

the use of cl elements, which are algebraically complex and

computationally expensive. The CO mixed elements are algebraically

simple and allows the direct computation of the bending moments at the

nodes. The inclusion of the bending moments as the nodal degrees of

freedom not only results in increased accuracy of the average stress

over that determined from the displacement model but it allows us to

determine stresses at the nodes. This feature is quite attractive in

contact problems and singular problems in general. It should be noted

that the bending moments are not required to be continuous across

interelement boundaries, as was shown in Chapter 4. The mixed models

based on the shear deformation theories also have the same advantages,

except that the displacement model of the first-order shear deformation

theory is also a CO element. In general, the formulative and

programming efforts are less with the mixed elements.

7.3 Recommendations

The theory presented here can be extended to a more general theory;

for example, the development of the theory in general curvilinear

coordinates, and for more general shells (than the doubly—curved shells

considered here). Extension of the present theory to include nonlinear

material models is awaiting. Of course, the inclusion of thermal loads

and damping in the present theory is straight forward.

The displacement models require Cl-approximation of the transverse

deflection, CO—approximation of other displacement variables. Such a
