Modeling the dynamic bending of rigid-plastic fiber-reinforced laminated curvilinear doubly connected thin plates with free outer contour

Abstract

A theoretical model of the dynamic bending of rigid-plastic hybrid composite, arbitrary curvilinear doubly connected thin plates is developed. Inner contour of the plate is simply supported or clamped and outer one is free. The plates are on a viscous basis and under the action of uniformly distributed loads of explosive type. The plates are laminated and fibrous, with layers arranged symmetrically with respect to the middle surface. In each layer the reinforcing fibers, made of different materials, are located in directions parallel or normal to inner contour of plate. The structural model of the reinforced layer considering the plane stress state in fibers is used. The equations of the dynamic deformation of plate and simple analytical formula for the limit load are obtained. Numerical examples are given for a fiber-reinforced four-layered curvilinear plate with a supported hole in the form of ellipse and super-ellipse at the same total amount of reinforcement.
