Bonding Strength Characteristics of FRP Cylindrical Composites Under Hygrothermal Loading
Abstract: This study investigates the bonding strength characteristics and stress distribution patterns in fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) cylindrical composites subjected to hygrothermal loading conditions. A four-phase cylindrical model incorporating AS-Graphite and S-Glass fibers with low modulus epoxy coating was analyzed under four distinct pressure loading conditions (25.984, 38.976, 77.953, and 155.906 MPa). Comprehensive stress analysis revealed significant variations in von-Mises stress, maximum principal stress, and minimum principal stress across fiber, coating, matrix, …

Hygrothermal Analysis of Functionally Graded Material Plates
Abstract: This study introduces a novel higher-order shear deformation theory, tailored to accommodate various loading conditions experienced by laminated plates. The theory is specifically designed for the hygrothermal analysis of functionally graded plates. Three homogenization methods are used to calculate the Young's Modulus that is Power law distribution, The exponential distribution and The Mori-Tanaka scheme. Navier's solution scheme is used for flexural analysis of Functionally graded plates simply supported at all …
