Thermal effect on wave interaction in composite structures (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Apalowo, R., Chronopoulos, D., & Thierry, V. Thermal effect on wave interaction in composite structures. Presented at : 19th International Conference on Aerospace, Mechanical, Automotive and Materials Engineering

There exist a wide range of failure modes in composite structures due to the increased usage of the structures especially in aerospace industry. Moreover, temperature dependent wave response of composite and layered structures have been continuously... Read More about Thermal effect on wave interaction in composite structures.

Wave interaction with defects in pressurized composite structures (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Apalowo, R., Chronopoulos, D., & Tanner, G. Wave interaction with defects in pressurized composite structures. Presented at 19th International Conference on Aerospace, Mechanical, Automotive and Materials Engineering

A wave finite element (WFE) and finite element (FE) based computational method is presented by which the dispersion properties as well as the wave interaction coefficients for one-dimensional structural system can be predicted. The structural system... Read More about Wave interaction with defects in pressurized composite structures.
