Reliability analysis of laminated composite structures using finite elements and neural networks
Lopes, Paulo André Menezes; Gomes, Herbert Martins; Awruch, Armando Miguel (2010)Saving of computer processing time on the reliability analysis of laminated composite structures using artificial neural networks is the main objective of this work. This subject is particularly important when the reliability ... -
Reliability based optimization of laminated composite structures using genetic algorithms and artificial neural networks
Gomes, Herbert Martins; Awruch, Armando Miguel; Lopes, Paulo André Menezes (2011)The design of anisotropic laminated composite structures is very susceptible to changes in loading, angle of fiber orientation and ply thickness. Thus, optimization of such structures, using a reliability index as a ...
