Buckling Analysis and Optimization of Stiffened Variable Angle Tow Laminates with a Cutout Considering Manufacturing Constraints

Buckling Analysis and Optimization of Stiffened Variable Angle Tow Laminates with a Cutout Considering Manufacturing Constraints

Variable angle tow laminates (VAT) and stiffeners are known to redistribute the in-plane load distribution and tailor the buckling mode shapes, respectively, for improving structural performance. To leverage the benefits of using VAT laminates in the practical applications, in the present paper, we...
