    Finding the initial shape of adeformed structure

    Hi; I want to know how can i find the initial shape of a deformed structure. I have a filament wound pressure vessel and i know that the optimum shape(after deformation) for the dome is a geodesic dome so i want to know the undeformed shape which produces that geodesic shape after loading with...

    analysing a 3d composite vessel

    I am analysing a 3d composite(carbon/epoxy) pressure vessel with ansys using shell99 elements and i want to obtain tsai-wu failure criterian.I have only these properties:(1,2 or x,y are in plane 3 or z is out of plane) MODULUS: E1,E2,G12 STRENGHT: Xt,Xc,Yt,Yc,S POISON RATIO:NU12 but there are...

    filament wound structures layer thickness and fiber angle accuracy

    In filament wound structures such as pressure vessels what is the accuracy of layers thickness and fiber angles.for example can we say alayer is 1.1 mm thick and the fiber angle is 9.1 degrree or can we be more accurate like 1.11 and 9.12. Cheers alleak

    Geodesic Dome

    Hi; I am working on layer optimization of composite pressure vessels with isotensoid filament winding.I am changing fiber angles and in each angle I optimize the thickness.since i want an isotensoid state it is necessary in each angle to change the opening of pressure vessel.so the dome geometry...
