- Abstract
This paper presents the delamination impact over the dynamic response of the variable angle tow (VAT) composite plates. The VAT plates with various fiber angles are constrained to different boundary conditions for parametric investigation, while delamination is made to present over two different locations with varying sizes. A comparative stochastic vibration study is performed to evaluate the contribution of composite properties to delaminated and intact plates. The randomness in the material properties is modeled with the efficient Latin hypercube sampling method. The polynomial neural network-based surrogate model, considered an efficient substitute for computationally expensive Monte Carlo simulation, is employed in the present work to examine the stochastic behavior of VAT plates. The contribution of the composite properties on the uncertain vibration characteristics is evaluated. It is observed from the investigations that the sensitivity of the composite properties varies significantly with the delamination. Lastly, a failure probability estimation is carried out with a developed polynomial neural network-based surrogate model to provide safe design estimation for various cases.
