Dynamic Behaviour of Undamaged and Damaged Multilayered Composite Plates

Article Preview

Abstract:

The article deals with the application of a higher-order FEM approach to the analysis of the dynamic behaviour of undamaged and damaged multilayered composite plates. Some numerical examples show the accuracy of the developed plate mixed finite element, in terms of vibration frequencies and mode shapes, for different boundary conditions and with different damage geometries.
