Abstract: Transformative changes are on the horizon in aerospace engineering education and learning in general. These changes are attributable, in part, to the developments of a number of aerospace, learning and other leading-edge ...

Abstract: Three recent developments in the sensitivity analysis for the thermomechanical postbuckling response of composite panels are reviewed. The three developments are an effective computational procedure for evaluating hierarchical ...

Abstract: The status and some recent developments of continuum modeling for repetitive lattice structures are summarized. Discussion focuses on a number of aspects including definition of an effective ...

Abstract: The focus of this review is on the basic idea and useful interpretations of reduction methods; multiple-parameter reduction methods; treatment of nonconservative loadings (unsymmetric systems); and ...

Abstract: An efficient computational procedure is presented for reducing the cost of the stress, free vibration, and buckling analyses of multilayered composite cylinders. The analytical formulation is based on the linear three‐dimensional ...

Abstract: Analytic three-dimensional elasticity solutions are presented for the stress and free vibration problems of multilayered anisotropic plates. The plates are assumed to have rectangular geometry and ...

Abstract: Analytic three-dimensional elasticity solutions are presented for the free vibration and buckling of thermally stressed, multilayered, angle-ply composite plates. Sensitivity derivatives are also ...

Abstract: The results of a detailed study of the effect of cutout on the nonlinear response of curved unstiffened panels are presented. The panels are subjected to combined temperature gradient through-the-thickness combined with ...
