On the optimization of composite laminated plates

C. Huang, B. Kröplin

This paper deals with the optimum design of composite laminated plates.Both ply orientation angles and ply thicknesses of the composite plate areused as design variables. The…

A procedure for determining load paths in elastic continua

D.W. Kelly, M. Elsley

The determination of load paths is an essential element of structuraldesign. Load paths provide insight into the way the structure is performingits prescribed function. They can…

On assumed shear strain in finite rotation shell analysis

Adnan Ibrahimbegović

Implementation details of the assumed shear strain method in a novelfinite rotation shell theory are discussed. Careful considerations of thepertinent aspects of the Newton…

Integration of a product design system and nonlinear finite element codes via a relational database

G. Bergman, M. Oldenburg, P. Jeppsson

A database for finite element models and related data is developed andincorporated into a prototype system for integration of non‐linearfinite element codes with a product design…

An eccentrically stiffened shell element model with geometrically non‐linear capability

L. Jiang, M.W. Chernuka

A stiffened shell element is presented for geometricallynon‐linear analysis of eccentrically stiffened shell structures.Modelling with this element is more accurate than with the…

Error estimators for viscoplastic materials: application to forming processes

L. Fourment, J.L. Chenot

The analysis of error estimation is addressed in the framework ofviscoplasticity problems, this is to say, of incompressible andnon‐linear materials. Firstly, Zienkiewicz—Zhu(Z2
