Aim Of Concept:

  • To understand the fundamentals of composite material strength and its mechanical behavior.
  • Understanding the analysis of fiber reinforced Laminate design for different combinations of plies with different orientations of the fiber.
  • Thermo-mechanical behavior and study of residual stresses in Laminates during processing.
  • Implementation of Classical Laminate Theory (CLT) to study and analysis for residual stresses in an isotropic layered structure such as electronic chips.
