Numerical Analysis of Stress Concentration in Isotropic and Laminated Plates with Inclined Elliptical Holes
Abstract The design of high-performance composite structures frequently includes discontinuities to reduce the weight and fastener holes for joining. Understanding the behavior of perforated laminates is necessary for structural design. In the current work, stress concentrations taking place in laminated and isotropic plates subjected to tensile load are investigated. The stress concentrations are obtained using a recent quadrilateral finite element of four nodes with 32 DOFs. The present finite element (PE) is a combination of two finite elements. The first finite element is a linear isoparametric membrane element and the second is a high precision Hermitian element. One of the essential objectives of the current investigation is to confirm the capability and efficiency of the PE for stress determination in perforated laminates. Different geometric parameters, such as the cutout form, sizes and cutout orientations, which have a considerable effect on the stress values, are studied. Using the present finite element formulation, the obtained results are found to be in good agreement with the analytical findings, which validates the capability and the efficiency of the proposed formulation. Finally, to understand the material parameters effect such as the orientation of fibers and degree of orthotropy ratio on the stress values, many figures are presented using different ellipse major to minor axis ratio. The stress concentration values are considerably affected by increasing the orientation angle of the fibers and degree of orthotropy.
