Shock Response Spectrum and Its Damage Potential: An Application to Launch Vehicle StructuresBy Jagadish Babu Gunda, G. Venkateswara Rao
Abstract: The present work briefly summarizes the analysis of pyrotechnic shocks encountered in launch vehicle structures using the shock response spectrum (SRS) and the pseudo velocity shock response spectrum techniques. The mathematical idealization assumes a single degree of freedom (SDOF) system model with base excitation. The mounting elements of SDOF system are assumed to be flexible and each mounting element can be described by its stiffness and damping parameters. The convolution …

Thermal Post-buckling and Large Amplitude Vibration Analysis of Composite Beams vis-Ã -vis Isotropic BeamsBy Jagadish Babu Gunda, G. Venkateswara Rao
Abstract: Thermal post-buckling and large amplitude free vibration analysis of composite beams is directly investigated based on an analogous relationship derived from the behavior of isotropic beams. The applicability of simple analogous relationship derived for the use of composite beams is demonstrated for various layup schemes of symmetrically laminated beam with wide variety of boundary conditions. Numerical accuracy of the proposed approach show an excellent agreement with available finite element solution …
