...Venkateshwar Reddy Pathapalli; Meenakshi Reddy Reddigari; Eswara Kumar Anna; P. Srinivasa Rao; D V. Ramana Reddy Purpose Metal matrix composites (MMC) has been a section which gives an overview of composite materials and owing to those exceptional physical and mechanical properties, particulate...

...Zhangxin Guo; Zhonggui Li; Junjie Cui; Yongcun Li; Yunbo Luan Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a finite element analysis (FEA) of filament-wound composites, as well as application of these materials. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, a new finite element method...

...Aníbal J.J. Valido; João Barradas Cardoso Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a design sensitivity analysis continuum formulation for the cross-section properties of thin-walled laminated composite beams. These properties are expressed as integrals based on the cross-section geometry...

...Vandana Gupta; S.B. Singh Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of anisotropy in terms of a single parameter indicating strengthening or weakening in the tangential direction in composite disc with hyperbolically varying thickness introduced presumably by processing...
