Dynamic Response and Stochastic Mechanics of Composite Materials and Structures

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Mechanical and structural components made of lightweight fiber-reinforced composite materials are increasingly being used in mechanical, automotive, aerospace, power generation and transmission including green energy, sporting equipment, recreational, and civil infrastructure engineering applications. However, in vast majority of such applications, applications to static and quasi-static components have been fully developed to the required reliability and safety levels. Also such components have been optimized for high performance. This is not the case with dynamic components. The reason for this limitation is that the dynamic response and associated instabilities of composite components under the time-varying service loadings encountered in such applications have not yet been adequately studied and understood.
