Exploiting non-symmetry in composite laminates : application to stringer terminations
This thesis challenges the existing composite design paradigm that prohibits the use of non-symmetric laminates. The restrictive nature of "symmetric-only" stacking sequences is identified, highlighting the potential benefit for structural optimisation on relaxing this constraint. The ther...
