Abstract The aim of this work is to study the static behavior of 2D soft core plane state structures. Deflections and inter-laminar stresses caused by forces can have serious consequences for strength and safety of these structures. Therefore, an accurate identification of the variables in hand is of considerable importance for their technical design. It is well-known that for complex plane structures there is no analytical solution, only numerical procedures can be used to solve them. In this study two numerical techniques will be taken mainly into account: the Generalized Differential Quadrature Finite Element Method (GDQFEM) and the Cell Method (CM).… More >
