Abstract:

The paper is aimed at the determination of Rayleigh wave velocity at the edge of a thin unidirectional carbon-epoxy composite panel. Velocities are calculated for various fiber angles and elasticity parameters. Numerical simulation is performed using finite element analysis. Results from the numerical analysis are compared with experimental results and analytical solution.

Keywords:

Composites, Rayleigh-edge waves, FEA
