Analysis and optimal design of the smart skin, i.e., the conformal load-bearing antenna structure for buckling and free vibration are studied. The smart skin is modeled as an asymmetric composite sandwich structure which consists of different materials. In order to act as antennas or radars, a dielectric layer is embedded on the middle surface of the sandwich structure. The formulation of the smart...
The vibration behavior of the thermally buckled composite plate embedded with shape memory alloy (SMA) fibers is investigated. The nonlinear finite element equations based on the first-order shear deformation plate theory are formulated for the laminated composite plate embedded with SMA fibers. The von Karman strain-displacement relation is used to account for the large deflection. The incremental...
