Recent advances in static and dynamic analysis of damaged laminated composite plates

Speaker: Dr. Miroslav Marjanović (University of Belgrade)

The seminar first presents briefly a FEM-based algorithm that predicts a delamination growth and controls overlapping of the layers in the prescribed delaminated zone of a composite plate.
This is followed by details of a computational model based on the dynamic stiffness method for the free vibration analysis of both intact and cracked laminated composite plates. The seminar ends with some practical implementations of the theoretical aspects demonstrated on a series of numerical simulations, followed by a Q&A session.
