Abstract.
Introduction Laminated composite plates have been increasingly used widely in aircraft and aerospace structures, mechanical and automobile components, marine and offshore structures, civil engineering structures, and etc.
In a 3-D continuum-based theory, at least one element through the thickness of each layer of a laminate is required for the modeling, thus a large number of 3-D elements is usually required to model a laminate, and the computational cost using 3-D models make this theory not practical for engineering applications.
Based on the first-order zig-zag sublaminate approximations, a three-dimensional finite element with five engineering degrees of freedom per node was developed [35] with the topology of an eight-node brick, allowing the thickness of the plate to be discretized into several sublaminates, where each sublaminate can contain more than one physical layer.

Key words: ASCE Benchmark; Chaos; Time-series; Lyapunov Exponent; Lyapunov Exponent Entropy; Security Evaluation
Abstract: The paper has made a maximum Lyapunov exponent and Lyapunov exponent spectrum entropy analysis of ASCE Benchmark using non-linear theory and chaos time sequence.
In recent years, chaos engineering, in combination with the Lyapunov exponents, is frequently used in analyzing the safety state of engineering structures for its efficiency to reflect the non-linear performance of a structure [1,2,3].

Abstract.
Introduction Geotechnical engineering is a new branch of science developing rapidly in nearly half of a century in China.
It is used rock, soil and groundwater as the research object, its main direction of the research is urban underground space and underground engineering, slope and foundation pit, foundation and foundation engineering.
However, the macro study of soil is not enough to explain the various changes in practical engineering.
Although CT technology has a lot of advantages, it also has the following insufficient: At present, CT machine is mainly used in medical in China, for special geotechnical engineering CT is less, so the test equipment is expensive, and caused the high cost of testing; Although CT equipment, which is used for the sample whether has damage detection or not, plays a very important role for the research .but at the same time, the test workers have also been X-ray hurt; and CT images is a low resolution, and the accuracy is not high.
