The reduction of weight elements is considered as a major objective of several
manufacturing companies. This objective will help in growing application sections of the …

Airplanes are inevitably subjected to various impact loading conditions in the event of
emergency landing. An airplane crash scenario is a complex nonlinear impact event which …

The increasing use of composite materials in the aviation industry for the manufacture of
higher performance components required the introduction of efficient optimisation methods …

The current study investigates the stability and failure analysis of thin‐walled composite
columns with a top‐hat and channel cross section, subjected to axial compression. The …

This paper presents an experimental and numerical study of the failure phenomenon of
compressed composite top-hat (CFRP) columns with three different lay-up arrangements of …

The novelty of this paper, in relation to other thematically similar research papers, is the
comparison of the failure phenomenon on two composite profiles with different cross …

This study focuses on an experimental and numerical simulation investigation on the
dynamic response of the composite fuselage panel under the impact of the tire burst debris …

This paper presents considerations on the failure of axially compressed thin-walled
composite structures with open sections (using an top-hat section structure). The analyzed …

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact behavior of composite pressure vessel
(CPV) in‐service case. Additionally, graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs) were introduced to …
