Random Material Properties

The aim of this paper is to find out the randomness in the material properties on the buckling of laminated composite plate needed for the economy, safety and reliability of the structures and components in their operational life especially for sensitive Aerospace Engineering applications in hygrothermal environments. Micromechanical model has been taken for the analysis .The used methodology is a C0 finite element method based on higher-order shear deformation plate theory for deriving the standard eigenvalue problem. A Taylor series based mean-centered first order perturbation technique is used to find out the second order statistics of the hygrothermal buckling loads under different sets of environmental conditions..The numerical results for deterministic parameters are compared and validated with available literature and random parameters with independent Monte Carlo Simulation. The result shows that the plate is significantly affected by the hygrothermal buckling load.

Random Material Properties

A generalized stochastic buckling analysis of laminated composite plates, with and without centrally located circular cutouts having random material properties, is presented under uniaxial compressive loading. In this analysis, the layerwise plate model is used to solve both prebuckling and buckling problems. The stochastic analysis is done based on mean centered first-order perturbation technique. The mean buckling strength of composite plates is validated with results available in the literature. It has been observed that the present analysis can predict buckling load accurately even for plates with large cutouts. Micromechanics based approach is used to study the effect of variation in microlevel constituents on the effective macrolevel properties like elastic moduli. Consequently, the effect of uncertainty in these material properties on the buckling strength of the laminated plates is studied. Parametric studies are carried out to see the effect of hole size, layups, and boundary conditions on the mean and variance of plate buckling strength.
