Reverberation-ray matrix analysis of the transient dynamic responses of asymmetrically laminated composite beams based on the first-order shear deformation theory

摘要: This study extends reverberation-ray matrix (RRM) analysis to include the transient responses of laminated composite beams based on first shear deformation theory (FSDT) subjected impulse force load. To validate developed method, we analyze velocity response a cantilever beam model under considering effect and rotary inertia. The half-cycle pulse rectangular are then solved by method (RRM). reverberationray that represents multi-reflected scattered waves in is demonstrated. influence impact load type axial–flexural–shear coupled effects due asymmetric ply stacking sequences analyzed. calculation results for also emphasized. In summary, compared with finite element proposed approach provides good agreement previous findings. advantage RRM solution process simpler faster, requires fewer computational elements.
