Thermoplastic matrix reinforced with metal fiber, composite laminated plates were manufactured by using moulds. The symmetric and antisymmetric laminated plates were loaded by in-plane forces. An elastic-plastic numerical solution has been carried out by finite element technique (FEM) for some load steps. Residual stresses and expansion of plastic zone have been illustrated in tables and figures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
