In this work, a hybrid laminated plate is developed by changing ply orientations and stacking sequences. The hybrid laminated plate is composed of carbon nanotube reinforced composite and fiber reinforced composite layers. Negative Poisson’s ratio (NPR) is obtained for the case of [22F/(22C/−22C)3T/−22F] laminate. A theoretical laminated model considering geometric nonlinearity and shear deformation is presented. Based on a two-step perturbation method, the solutions of the motion equations are obtained to capture the nonlinear frequencies and load–deflection curves. On this basis, the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method is used to obtain the dynamic response of hybrid laminated plates. The presented model is verified by comparing the results obtained analytically and numerically. Several factors such as loading and distribution of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and foundation type are considered in parametric study. Numerical results indicate that the thermal-mechanical behavior of hybrid laminated plates significantly improved by properly adjusting the CNT distribution. In addition, the results reveal that changes in temperature and foundation stiffness have pronounced influence on the nonlinear vibration characteristics of hybrid laminate plates with NPR as compared to those with positive Poisson’s ratio.

Functionally graded materials (FGM) are increasingly used in the engineering field. In many applications, FGMs are modelled as plates. Plates made of functionally graded materials (FGPs) are mostly designed to perform under elevated temperatures. In those circumstances, they are often under the combined effect of thermal and mechanical loads. There have been many studies on buckling analysis of FGP under either mechanical or thermal loads; however, only a few studies have addressed the combined effect of both loads acting together. This article focuses on the review of research on buckling analysis of FGP under the combined thermal and mechanical loads.

“…However, due to the timeconsuming and costly experimental tests [11], analytical calculation and numerical simulation are at least regarded as an alternative. To date, the analytical models have achieved much progress in investigating the mechanical behaviors of composites [12]. Zuo et al [13] employed the statistical analytic method and Tsai-Wu polynomial criteria to investigate the tensile strength of 3D braided composites and the results were verified to be accurate.…”

Numerical simulation with progressive damage criterion is implemented to investigate the effect of porosity on the bending properties of 2D cross-ply carbon/carbon (C/C) composites. The mechanical properties of Pyrocarbon matrix regarding the change of porosity are calculated by using Mori-Tanaka approach. Combining with the stiffness degradation scheme, the ultimate bending strengths are calculated in Abaqus though a user-defined subroutine (USDFLD). Delamination is modelled by inserting cohesive elements between two adjacent plies. A good agreement is obtained when the FEM results are compared to three-point bending experiments. The FEM results show that the bending strength decreases greatly with the increase of porosity. When the porosity reaches up to 18%, the bending strength is decreased by 57%. The major fracture behaviors are interlamination delamination and continuous crack damage in 90˚ plies. With the increase of porosity, more severe interlamination delamination will be slightly aggravated. In addition, the increase of porosity will also accelerate the damage in 90˚ plies.
