Finite Element Analysis of Glass/Epoxy Composite Laminates with Different Types of Circular Cutouts

K Anand Babu, Dr Md Abid Ali

Abstract :

This paper is focused on the analysis of stress–strain and displacement for compressive load on the fiber– reinforced composite laminates. Three different orientations of fibers are analyzed with and without the circular cut–outs. Also different dimensions of circular cut–outs are applied on the laminates at different compressive loading conditions. This analysis is carried out using the finite element software ANSYS. From the result, it is identified that cross–ply composite laminates possess the highest strength as compared to other types of angle orientations. Also it is concluded that the maximum load beå capacity decreases as the cut–out size increases.
