The Maximum Stress Failure Criterion and the Maximum Strain Failure Criterion: Their Unification and Rationalization (2020)
Journal Article

The maximum strain failure criterion is unified with the maximum stress failure criterion, after exploring the implications of two considerations responsible for this: (1) the failure strains for the direct strain components employed in the maximum s...

Unification and parameterisation of 2D and 3D weaves and the formulation of a unit cell for composites made of such preforms (2020)
Journal Article

In this paper, the method to unify the definition of woven architectures in textile composites over a wide range of variations has been established. This was achieved via parametrisation of the weaves, which was conducted employing a limited set of c...

Closed-Form Solution for Secondary Perturbation Displacement in Finite-Element-Implemented Koiter’s Theory (2020)
Journal Article

The finite-element-implemented Koiter’s initial postbuckling analysis has not managed to convince commercial finite element code developers to incorporate it into their codes to benefit structural designers and analysts. Three key obstacles have been... Read More about Closed-Form Solution for Secondary Perturbation Displacement in Finite-Element-Implemented Koiter’s Theory.
