Abstract
A significant amount of research has been conducted on the buckling behavior of
delaminated composite laminates. However, none of the investigations has been focused on
establishing similarity and scaling laws for buckling response of composite laminated with
delamination. The main objective of this study is to demonstrate the applicability of similitude
theory in designing scaled down models for predicting the buckling behavior of delaminated
laminated beam subjected to uni-axial compression. The results presented herein indicate that, for
buckling response of delaminated beam-plates, based on structural similitude, a set of scaling laws
can be found which use to develop design rules for small scale models. For models with the same
material properties and stacking sequence as prototype, distorted models with different number of
delaminations, delamination length and depth than those of the prototype can predict the behavior
of the prototypes with good accuracy.
