Stiffness design of laminates using the polar method
2001
This paper is devoted to the analysis of elastic properties of anisotropic laminas using the so-called polar representation method: this is an effective mathematical tool to analyse two-dimensional elastic problems. By this method, the authors have been able to find a particular class of solutions to some special inverse problems concerning laminates made by anisotropic layers. The properties of these solutions are described and discussed, along with some general results.
