Effect of Sinusoidal and Inverse sinusoidal Load on the Vibration and Buckling Behaviour of Laminated Composite Symmetrical and Unsymmetrical Trapezoidal Panels
Abstract: Using finite element (FE) techniques, this work analyzes the influence of sinusoidal and invers sinusoidal stresses on the buckling behavior of trapezoidal laminated composite panels (also known as trapezoidal laminated composite panels). The discretization of the composite panel is accomplished by the use of an eight-noded iso-parametric plate element, which has five degrees of freedom for each node. Due to the incorporation of Higher Order Shear Deformation Theory (HOSDT) into …

Thermo-mechanical Analysis of Orthotropic plate under Sinusoidally Distributed Thermal load by using Trigonometric shear Deformation Theory (TSDT)
Abstract: For the thermal analysis of simply supported square and rectangular plates applied to sinusoidal distributed linear thermal load throughout the plate thickness and in combination with sinusoidal distributed transverse mechanical loading, a trigonometric shear deformation theory is proposed. In this work, a sinusoidal function in terms of thickness coordinates is being used in the displacement field in conjunction with the transverse shear deformation effect. The normal and shear stress can …

Thermal Analysis of Isotropic and Orthotropic Plate by Trigonometric Shear Deformation Theory
Abstract: In the present study, a sinusoidal shear and normal deformation theory taking into account effects of transverse shear as well as transverse normal is used to develop the analytical solution for the bidirectional bending analysis of isotropic, transversely isotropic, laminated composite and sandwich rectangular plates. Governing equations and boundary conditions of the theory are obtained using the principle of virtual work. The Navier solution for simply supported laminated composite plates …

Comparative Analysis of Polymer-Enhanced and Conventional Magnetorheological Fluids in E-Bicycle Semi-Active Suspension
Abstract: In light of the increased use of electric bicycles as a sustainable transport means, various mechanical challenges emerge which were absent in traditional bicycles, primarily concerning vibration isolation and riding comfort. Indeed, hub motors, batteries and the entire drivetrain system produce dynamic excitations which passive suspension cannot handle effectively. This paper presents a comparison of conventional magnetorheological (MR) fluid and the polymer-based MR nanocomposite fluid within the context of semi-active …

Mechanical Characteristic Analysis of Five-Layer Carbon-Carbon Composite Material
Abstract: The current study investigates the fabrication and mechanical strength of five-layer carbon-carbon composite. The strong five-layer carbon-carbon composite material with high strength and modulus is made of a raw material called precursors. The polyacrylonitrile (PAN) method is used in the fabrication of carbon fiber. The characteristics of the resulting carbon material depend on the composition and structure of the precursor. A sheet of 50 x 40 cm five-layer carbon-carbon composite …
