Description
Summary:Plate-cone reticulated shell is a new type of spatial structures with good mechanical behavior, technical economy, and architectural appearance. In this paper, using ANSYS software, the strength failure analysis model of composite laminates is established in cooperation with the Strength Criterion of Hoffman. The effects of layer number, laying direction, and thickness of laminates on the ultimate strength of laminates are studied by detailed parametric analysis, which provides a theoretical basis for the design of composite plate-cone reticulated shell and GFRP laminated plates. Some important conclusions are obtained and can be applied to engineering practice.
