Buckling analysis of multilayered structures using high-order theories and the implicit-mesh discontinuous Galerkin method
2022
This work presents a novel formulation for the linear buckling analysis of multilayered shells. The formulation employs high-order Equivalent-Single-Layer (ESL) shell theories based on the through-the-thickness expansion of the covariant components of the displacement field, whilst the corresponding buckling problem is derived using the Euler’s method. The novelty of the formulation regards the solution of the governing equations, which is obtained via implicit-mesh discontinuous Galerkin (DG) schemes. The DG method is a high-order accurate numerical technique based on a discontinuous representation of the solution among the mesh elements and on the use of suitably defined boundary integral…
Accurate Multilayered Shell Buckling Analysis via the Implicit-Mesh Discontinuous Galerkin Method
2022
A novel formulation for the linear buckling analysis of multilayered shells is presented. High-order equivalent-single-layer shell theories based on the through-the-thickness expansion of the covariant components of the displacement field are employed. The novelty of the formulation regards the governing equations solution via implicit-mesh discontinuous Galerkin method. It is a high-order accurate numerical technique based on a discontinuous representation of the solution among the mesh elements and on the use of suitably defined boundary integrals to enforce the continuity of the solution at the inter-element interfaces as well as the boundary conditions. Owing to its discontinuous natur…
