Fiber Orientation Angle Optimization for Minimum Stress of Laminated Composite Plates

Abstract:

The genetic algorithm is used to minimize the stress of the laminated composite plates by optimizing the fiber orientation angle. The objective function of optimization problem is the minimum stress in center of laminated composite plates under the external load; optimization variables are fiber orientation angle. The results for the optimal fiber orientation angle and the minimum stress of the 2-layer plates and 3-layer plates are presented.
