Free Vibration Analysis of Laminated Composite Plates with Circular and Non-Circular Cutouts using FEM
Abstract: This paper presents the free vibration analysis of a composite laminated plate with circular and non-circular cutouts, using finite element method (FEM). A number of examples concerning different aspect ratios, different thickness ratios, different values of material properties, different size of cutouts, different number of layers and different boundary conditions are considered. Convergence study has been carried out by comparing the results obtained to the numerical results available in the …

Drilling of Composite Materials: A Review
Abstract: In today’s world composites are replacing metals due to their superior properties such as light weight; low wear rate etc. Composites are widely used in automobile, aerospace and aircraft structural components. While drilling composite laminates, because of high hardness, they are difficult to machine, which results in low drilling efficiency and undesirable drilling induced delamination. The present paper is intended to focus on review of various works reported on drilling …

Drilling Effect on Fiber Composites: A Review
Abstract: Composites laminates show immense mechanical properties like strength-to-weight ratio, damage tolerance, fatigue and corrosion resistance therefore conventional materials are replaced by composites in many areas such as automobile and aircraft structure. Machining of composites is very difficult than machining of a conventional material because composites are inhomogeneous and extremely abrasive. In production drilling is important machining process used to produce hole for riveted and bolted joint. There are many improvements …
