This manuscript comes from the experience gained over ten years of
study and research on shell structures and on the Generalized
Differential Quadrature method. The title, Mechanics of Laminated
Composite Doubly-Curved Shell Structures, illustrates the theme
followed in the present volume. The present study aims to analyze
the static and dynamic behavior of moderately thick shells made of
composite materials through the application of the Differential
Quadrature (DQ) technique. A particular attention is paid, other
than fibrous and laminated composites, also to "Functionally Graded
Materials" (FGMs). They are non-homogeneous materials,
characterized by a continuous variation of the mechanical
properties through a particular direction. The GDQ numerical
solution is compared, not only with literature results, but also
with the ones supplied and obtained through the use of different
structural codes based on the Finite Element Method (FEM).
Furthermore, an advanced version of GDQ method is also presented.
This methodology is termed Strong Formulation Finite Element Method
(SFEM) because it employs the strong form of the differential
system of equations at the master element level and the mapping
technique, proper of FEM. The connectivity between two elements is
enforced through compatibility conditions.
The title, "Laminated Composite Doubly-Curved Shell Structures.
Differential and Integral Quadrature. Strong Form Finite Elements"
illustrates the theme treated and the prospective followed during
the composition of the present work. The aim of this manuscript is
to analyze the static and dynamic behavior of thick and moderately
thick composite shells through the application of the Differential
Quadrature (DQ) method. The book is divided into two volumes
wherein the principal higher order structural theories are
illustrated in detail and the mechanical behavior of doubly-curved
structures are presented by several static and dynamic numerical
applications. In particular, the first volume is mainly
theoretical, whereas the second one is mainly related to the
numerical DQ technique and its applications in the structural
field. The numerical results reported in the present volume are
compared to the one available in the literature, but also to the
ones obtained through several codes based on the Finite Element
Method (FEM). Furthermore, an advanced version of the DQ method,
termed Strong Formulation Finite Element Method (SFEM), is
presented. The SFEM solves the differential equations inside each
element in the strong form and implements the mapping technique
typical of the FEM.
The title, "Laminated Composite Doubly-Curved Shell Structures.
Differential al Geometry and Higher-order Theories" illustrates the
theme treated and the prospective followed during the composition
of the present work. The aim of this manuscript is to analyze the
static and dynamic behavior of thick and moderately thick composite
shells through the application of the Differential Quadrature (DQ)
method. The book is divided into two volumes wherein the principal
higher order structural theories are illustrated in detail and the
mechanical behavior of doubly-curved structures are presented by
several static and dynamic numerical applications. In particular,
the first volume is mainly theoretical, whereas the second one is
mainly related to the numerical DQ technique and its applications
in the structural field. The starting point to analyze higher-order
structural theories is given by the so-called Unified Formulation
(UF), which allows to consider and study several kinematic models
in a unified manner. Both the Equivalent Single Layer (ESL) and
Layer-Wise (LW) approaches are presented. A particular attention is
paid to composite materials, due to their increasing development
and use in many engineering fields during the last years.
