The design/analysis engineer should be able to determine for the following question:


How do composite laminates behave under load?
Which composite material should be used?
What are the guidelines for design and the analysis methods?
What design data is required and how is it obtained?
Can the composite product be fabricated easily?
How can the quality of the composite product be assured?
The purpose of the material presented here is to introduce the reader to the principles of the
mechanical behavior of thin laminates (how laminates behave under loads). This includes both
symmetric and unsymmetric laminates relative to the mid-plane, with both in-plane and flexural
loads. Also included are the effects of temperature and moisture, and laminate strength. A liberal
use is made of flow charts for aids in analysis

Required elastic material properties
for composites
• Metals (isotropic materials)
– E, G, ν
– 2 independent properties – G = __E____
2(1 + ν)
• Composite lamina (unidirectional layer, ply)
– In plane: E1, E2, G12, ν12
– Out of plane : E3, G13, G23, ν13, ν23
• But for transverse isotropy (2 = 3):
E2 = E3
G12 = G13
ν12 = ν13
G23 = __E23___
2(1 + ν 23)
Therefore 5 independent properties:
E1
E2
G12
ν 12
G23
Terminology used in micromechanics
•
•
•
•
•
Ef, Em - Young’s modulus of fiber and matrix
Gf, Gm - Shear modulus of fiber and matrix
νf, νm - Poisson’s ratio of fiber and matrix
Vf, Vm - Volume fraction of fiber and matrix
Wf, Wm – Weight fraction of fiber and matrix
Elastic properties:
Rule of mixtures approach
•
Parallel model - E1 and ν12 (Constant Strains)
E1 = Ef1Vf + EmVm
ν12 = νf Vf + νmVm
Predictions agree well with experimental data
•

Micromechanics example:
Volume fraction changes
Knowns :
Carbon: E = 34.0 x 106 psi
Epoxy : E = 0.60 x 106 psi
• How much does the longitudinal modulus change when the fiber volume
fraction is changed from 58% to 65%?
E = E V +E V
1
-
For Vf = 0.58:
-
For Vf = 0.65:
E1 =
E1 =
f1
f
m
m
(34.0 x 106 psi)(.58) + (0.60 x 106 psi)(0.42) = 20.0 x 106 psi
(34.0 x 106 psi)(.65) + (0.60 x 106 psi)(0.35) = 22.3 x 106 psi
Thus, raising the fiber volume fraction from 58% to 65% increases E1 by
12%
Design and analysis of composite laminates:
Laminated Plate Theory (LPT)
• Used to determine the response of a composite
laminate based on properties of a layer (or ply)
Laminate Ply Orientation Code
•
•
•
•
•
•
Designate each ply by it’s fiber orientation angle
List plies in sequence starting from top of laminate
Adjacent plies are separated by “/” if their angle is different
Designate groups of plies with same angle using subscripts
Enclose complete laminate in brackets
Use subscript “S” to denote mid plane symmetry, or “T” to
denote total laminate
• Bar on the top of the ply indicates mid-plane
Special types of laminates
• Symmetric laminate – for every ply above the laminate mid plane, there is
an identical ply(material and orientation) an equal distance below the mid
plane
• Balanced laminate – for every ply at a +θ orientation, there is another ply
at the – θ orientation somewhere in the laminate
• Cross-ply laminate – composed of plies of either 0o or 90o (no other ply
orientations)
• Quasi-isotropic laminate – produced using at least three different ply
orientations, all with equal angles between them. Exhibits isotropic
extensional stiffness properties (have the same E in all in-plane directions)
The response of special laminates
•
•
•
Balanced, unsymmetric, laminate
– Tensile loading produces twisting curvature
– Ex: [+θ/0/- θ]τ
Symmetric, unbalanced laminate
– Tensile loading produces in-plane shearing
– Ex: [+θ/0/- θ]τ
Unsymmetric cross-ply laminate
– Tensile loading produces bending curvature
– Ex: [0/90]τ
•
Balanced and symmetric laminate
– Tensile loading produces extension
– Ex: [+θ/- θ]s
•
Quasi isotropic laminate: [+60/0/- 60]s and [+45/0/+45/90]s
– Tensile loading produces extension loading, independent of angle
Stress-Strains Relationships in Lamina

(2)
The lamina is homogeneous, orthotropic and linear-elastic
The lamina is in a state of plane stress (very thin), therefore, the stresses associated with
the z-direction are negligible: σz = τxz = τyz = 0
The normal strain in the x-direction for the lamina in Figure 2a is the sum of the normal
strains in the x-direction for the laminae in Figures 2b, 2c and 2d:
From Figure 2b, εx = 0
From Figure 2c, Ex=

or εx =

From Figure 2d, νy = − or εx = − νy εy = − νy

The normal strain in the y-direction for the lamina is determined from superposition as follows:

From Figure 2c, εs = 0

Special Cases:
• Cross-Ply Laminates: All layers are either 0° or 90°, which
results in A16 = A26 = 0. This is sometimes called specially
orthotropic w. r. t. in-plane force and strains. Refer to Figure 1
and Table 1.
•
• h = total laminate thickness
Figure 1 In-Plane Modulus and Compliance of T300/5208 CrossPly Laminates.
• Balanced Angle-Ply Laminates: There are only two orientations
of the laminae; same magnitude but opposite in sign. With an equal
number of plies with positive and negative orientations. Refer to
Figure 2 and table 2.
• h = total laminate thickness.
Figure 2 In-Plane Modulus and Compliance of T300/5208 Angle-Ply Laminates.
The balanced angle-ply laminate is another case of “special orthotropy” w.r.t. inplane force and strains; that is A16 = A26 = 0.
The values of Table 2 apply for un-symmetric laminate as well as symmetric
laminates. For example, the values for [+30, −30, +30, −30] or [+30, +30, −30, −30]
are the same as those for [+30, -30, -30, +30].
If the laminate is not balanced, such as [+30, −30, +30], then the terms A16 and A26
are not zero.
Also remember that A16 = A26 for all cross-plies, whether they are symmetric or unsymmetric.
Example:
[0, 90]
[0, 90, 0]
[+30, −30, −30, +30]
[+30, −30, +30, −30]
[+30, −30, +30]
un-symmetric cross-ply, A16 = A26 = 0
symmetric cross-ply, A16 = A26 = 0
symmetric balanced angle-ply, A16 = A26 = 0
un-symmetric balanced angle-ply, A16 = A26 = 0
symmetric un-balanced angle-ply, A16, A26 ≠ 0
3) Quasi-Isotropic Laminates:
Has ‘m’ ply groups spaced at ply orientations of 180/m degrees.
Note: This does not apply for m = 1 and m = 2. The laminate need not be
symmetric to be quasi-isotropic. For example, the laminate [0, 45, −45, 90]
is quasi-isotropic.
Examples:
[0/60/−60]s
[0/90/45/−45]s
[0/60/−60/60/0/−60]s
m=3
m=4
m=3
180/m = 60°
180/m = 45°
180/m = 60°
The modulus of the quasi-isotropic laminate has the following properties:
A11 = A22
A16 = A26 = 0
1
A66 = (A11 – A22) which is equivalent to G = E for an isotropic material.

Summary: Laminate Analysis
1. Determine the modulus for the laminate [0/+45/−45/90]s where the 0° and 90° layers are
Scotch-ply 1002, and the +45° and −45° layers are T300/5208. The thickness of each
layer is 0.00125m. Obtain the modulus by (1) hand calculations, and (2) computer
program.
