STRESS ANALYSIS OF FINITE COMPOSITE LAMINATES WITH MULIIPLE ELLIPTICAL HOLES

Based on the classical laminated plate theory, a finite composite laminated plateweakened by multiple elliptical holes is treated as an anisotropic multiply connected plate.Using the complex potential method in the theory of elasticity of an analytical solution offinite composite laminates containing multiple elliptical holes is obtained with the help ofthe Faber series expansion and the least square boundary collocation technique. The effectsof many design parameters on the stress distribution are studied ...
