Recent developments in modelling and design of laminated and Piezolaminated structures by the finite strip method

摘要: In this work, recent developments on the use of general spline finite strip method in analysis and optimal design laminated structures with embedded and/or surface bonded piezoelectric actuators sensors are presented. The models developed using third-order plate theory, they applied to static free vibration analyses adaptive arbitrary layups, loading boundary conditions. As a special case theory simpler computational efficient element model based first-order shear deformation is obtained. These combined stochastic global optimization technique called "simulated annealing" improve performance composite subjected variety objective functions constraints discrete continuous variables. capabilities these illustrated by two examples simple structures.
