1 Composite materials
What composite materials are and how they are made see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite material.
2 Mechanics
Mechanics (in Greek M ηχανικη) is a branch of physics dealing with the move-
ment of bodies and its causes. Mechanics is based on two sets of axioms. They
are either Newton’s laws of motion or the principle of least action. Starting with
Newton’s laws we can, using variational methods, easily obtain the principle of
least action and vice versa.
Just a reminder:
Newton’s law of inertia (it defines inertial frame) F =0⇔a=0
Newton’s law of force and acceleration F = ma
→
− → −
Newton’s law of action and reaction F =- R
and on the other hand the principle of least action says the path taken Z by a
t2
body (or a system) minimizes the action S= Ldt
t1
where the Lagrangian L=T −V
In our lectures we are interested only in statics (a = 0) of deformable bodies of
a special kind, namely bodies obeying the Hooke’s law σ ab = E abcd εcd
3 Hooke’s law
The last expression of Hooke’s law is writen in tensor notation nevertheless we
will use the Voigt’s notation1 σ = Eε

It holds true for every lineary elastic material. We call it Hooke’s law for
anisostropic material. In what follows we will study material symmetries.
4 Monoclinic material
In mechanics of composite materials we study symmetry in other way than in
crystallography. What we call monoclinic material is a material that have one
plane of material symmetry in point like sense. What I meen is the fact that
Hooke’s law in the stated form is point like and to state material symmetry it
is sufficient to study this Hooke’s law. We call a plane of material symmetry
such a plane with respect to which both stress and strain is either symetric or
anisotropic (both the same).

plane 23
If the plane 23 is the plane of symmetry then
σ11 E11 E12 E13 E14 0 0 ε11
σ22 E12 E22 E23 E24 0 0 ε22
σ33 E13 E23 E33 E34 0 0 ε33

σ31 0 0 0 0 E55 E56 2ε31
σ12 0 0 0 0 E56 E66 2ε12
5 Orthotropic materal
An orthotropic material is a material that have three mutually perpendicular
planes of symmetry, let us say 12,23,31. As every one of the three above men-
tioned monoclinic cases holds there is just one way
σ11 E11 E12 E13 0 0 0 ε11
σ22 E12 E22 E23 0 0 0
ε22
σ33 E13 E23 E33 0 0 0 ε33
σ23 = 0 0 0 E44 0 0
2ε23
σ31 0 0 0 0 E55 0 2ε31
σ12 0 0 0 0 0 E66 2ε12
An orthotropic material thus has 9 independent material characteristics.

7 Isotropic material
It is symetric with respect to every plane and there are only 2 independent
material characteristics.

system of orthotropy, write ε = C σ , i.e.

15 Composite micromechanics
Given the micromechanical geometry and the material properties of each con-
stituent, it is possible to estimate the effective composite material properties
and the micromechanical stress/strain state of a composite material.
Thus, for fibre composite we can estimate...

As h is finite the stresses are unknown functions of z. On the other hand the
dimensions dx and dy are infinitesimally small and we may approximate the
functions according to Taylor series σab (x + dx, y, z) = σab + σab,x dx
and σab (x, y + dy, z) = σab + σab,y dy
where by σab we understand σab = σab (x, y, z)
Now, to write equilibrium equations we need forces and moments acting upon
the element. The acting generalized forces are the resultants of the stresses

From the definition of these quantities we see that they are not forces or moments
but in fact linear densities of these forces and moments. To get a real forces we
need to multiply them by the width of the appropriate area of the element.

20 Symmetric laminate
Symmetric laminate is a laminate for which for every ν there is a µ such
that αν = αµ and zν = −zµ−1
Then B =0
and N = Aε o
M = Dκ
Using (here) and (there) we get Dabcd wabcd = p
and Aabcd uoc,ad = 0
Add comment on coupling...
21 Balanced laminate
22 Solved problems not only on B = 0 case
23 Buckling analysis of laminated plates
Let us consider symmetric laminate B = 0. For this case we have from above
Dabcd w,abcd = 0
Nab,a = 0
These equations of equilibrium have been derived under the undeformed geom-
etry configuration. As in the case of column buckling we need to look at the
case of deformed shape.

if the element is in undeformed position. Nevertheless, if deformed, as on the
Figures, there are nonzero components in the direction. That means the equi-
librium equation in the z-direction Dabcd w,abcd dxdy = pdxdy
has the following additional terms (after using Nab,a = 0 and O(3) = 0) on its

y1 < 0 rC1
1st material: E1 , α1 Neutral axis r h1
y2 > 0 rC2
2nd material: E2 , α2 h2
The material properties are described by the Young’s modulus (E1 , E2 ) and
coefficient of thermal expansion (α1 , α2 ).
As the beam is unloaded by external forces the overall internal normal force, N ,
and bending moment, Mb , are zero:
N = 0, Mb = 0
ε = ky
19
That gives
σ = Eky − Eα∆T
For the normal force we then have
Z Z Z
N= σ dA = σ1 dA + σ2 dA
A A1 A2
Z Z Z Z
N= E1 ky dA − E1 α1 ∆T dA + E2 ky dA − E2 α2 ∆T dA
A1 A1 A2 A2
i.e.
N = E1 kQ1 − E1 α1 ∆T A1 + E2 kQ2 − E2 α2 ∆T A2
where Q1 and Q2 are the first moment of area of the cross-section of the 1st
and 2nd material with respect to the Neutral axis, respectively.
For the bending moment we can write
Z Z Z
Mb = yσ dA = yσ1 dA + yσ2 dA
A A1 A2
Z Z Z Z
Mb = E1 ky 2 dA − yE1 α1 ∆T dA + E2 ky 2 dA − yE2 α2 ∆T dA
A1 A1 A2 A2
i.e.
Mb = E1 kI1 − E1 α1 ∆T Q1 + E2 kI2 − E2 α2 ∆T Q2
where I1 and I2 are second moment of area with respect to the Neutral axis of
the respective areas.
As N = 0 and Mb = 0 we have the conditions fixing the position of the Neutral
axis and the curvature, k, which in the case of the rectangular cross-section
gives
20
Material 1: E1 , α1
Material 2: E2 , α2 ∆
Consequently,
α1 E1 A1 + α2 E2 A2
ε= ∆T
E1 A1 + E2 A2
As there are carbon fibres with a negative coefficient of thermal expansion it is
possible to arrange the dimensions and composition of the beam in such a way
that the fraction vanishes and the beam has a zero thermal expansion.

and compatibility conditions
where v1 and v2 are the displacements, E1 and E2 are the Young’s moduli,
and I1 and I2 are the second moments of area of the upper and lower beam,
respectively.

The position of the neutral axis is given by the fact that the resultant axial
force, N , is zero due to the chosen supports:
Z Z
N= σ1 dA + σ2 dA = 0
A1 A2
24
i.e.
E1 Q1 + E2 Q2 = 0
where Q1 and Q2 is the first moment of the cross-sectional area 1 and 2 with
respect to the Neutral axis, respectively. The last equation gives the origin of
coordinate y.
Moment-curvature relationship is based on the expression of the bending
moment as an integral of elementary bending moments
Z Z Z Z
Mb = yσ1 dA + yσ2 dA = kE1 y 2 dA + kE2 y 2 dA
A1 A2 A1 A2
that is
Mb = k(E1 J1 + E2 J2 )

is the second moment of the cross-sectional area A1 with respect to the Neutral
axis and
J2 = I2 + y22 A2
is the second moment of the cross-sectional area A2 with respect to the same
Neutral axis.

Let us assume that both parts of the beam obey the Bernoulli’s hypothesis
where the curvature, k, is the same for both parts as for small deformations
k = −v 00 and the deflection, v, is supposed to be the same for both parts. The
coordinates y1 and y2 originates at the two respective neutral axes, NA1 and
NA2, as seen at the Figure above.
The connection between the two parts is assumed to be elastic with the shear

where note that yC1 (as well as yC2 and ∆NA = y1interface −y2interface ) is a function
of x, i.e., the neutral axis is not, generally, at the same place at every cross-
section.

central axis.
There is also a geometric condition (as seen in the Figure)
There are five equations, four of them linearly independent, (5–9) for four un-
known functions, k, yC1 , yC2 and ∆NA .
