1. Construct your own laminate by selecting the fibres
and matrices using the above drop-down menus,
2. Repeat 1 to build up a number of plies (k),
fibre orientations (θ)
and
fibre volume fractions (f)
3. Calculate the elastic constants Ex,
Gxy and νxy for
different loading angles.
Recommended stacking sequences: i) 0 ii) 0 / 90 iii) 0/45/90/-45.
Ply angles must be in the range +90° to
-90
