Evaluation of static responses for layered composite arches

Abstract: Layered composite materials are widely used across a variety of sectors, including the automotive industry, aerospace engineering, offshore, and various mechanical domains, because of their strong yet lightweight structures. Therefore, various emergent theories are available on the deformation of layered beams. The previous research studies are insufficient as they are based on deformation of layered composite and sandwich arches with simply supported (SS) end conditions. Therefore, it is a good opportunity for researchers to investigate the arches using exponential shear deformation and normal deformation theory. The leading hypothesis mainly adds to the research of bending for sandwich and layered composite arches adopting the exponential theory. The present theory does not require any shear correction factor to satisfy zero transverse shear stress condition at the bottom and top fibers of arches. Governing equations and associated end conditions are derived through principle of virtual work. Navier’s techniques used for sandwich and layered composite arches are SS boundary conditions subjected to uniformly distributed load. The results of the current study showed that the exponential normal and shear deformation theories may be used to evaluate static responses for layered composite and sandwich arches. The obtained results from the present theory are validated through the results available in published literature.
