Quadrilateral Finite Element

Finite element analysis has been used to find out eigen values and mode shape for fiber reinforced composite plates. FRC plates are important structural elements in modern engineering structures. Vibrations of laminated composite plates have been the subject of significant research activities in recent years. Last two decades have witnessed continued development of advanced composite and other high performance aerospace materials with increased specific strength and modulus, longer fatigue life, higher combat survivability etc. Advanced composite laminates extend the possibility of optimal design through the variation of stacking sequence and fiber orientation, known as composite tailoring. The benefits that accrue from this are not attainable without solving the complexities that are introduced by various coupling effects, such as bending–stretching and bending-twisting. Even, as the matrix material is of relatively low shearing stiffness as compared to the fibers, a reliable prediction of frequency response of laminated plates must account for transverse shear deformation. A four noded quadrilateral finite element is considered for the study of frequency response of composite plate. An analytical solution to the boundary value problem of free vibration response of arbitrarily laminated plates subjected to an admissible boundary condition is presented. A rectangular fiber reinforced composite plate is modeled in FEM software (NISA 15) and natural frequencies, mode shapes are obtained and are compared with the available analytical solutions.
