plz can u tel me how to carry out the non linear static and dynamic analysis of heated laminated composite plate in ansys apdl 11.0.
the parameters given are
graphite/epoxy material.
the analysis is carried out for 2 layers (22.5/-22.5) and 4 layers (22.5/-22.5/22.5/-22.5)
a=0.2 , b=0.2 , h=0.01 ,(h/a)=20
E1=181gpa, E2=10.3gpa E3=10.3gpa poissons ratios v1=0.25 v2=0.25 v3=0.25
G12=7.17gpa , G23=7.17gpa G13=6.21gpa.
alpa1=0.02e-6 and alpha =22.5e-6
mesh size 2*2
temp to be conducted are (100,225,350,475,600)
to find deflection to thickness ratio in ansys software
plz help me out with this problem i m stuck in middle of the project
