Imperfection sensitivity analysis for a composite bowed-out shell under axial compression

In this article, we present a systematic work to investigate the imperfection sensitivity of composite bowed-out shells with different layup patterns under axial compression. Two types of geometric imperfections, including eigenmode-shaped imperfections (produced by a first-order eigenmode imperfect...
