Local stability analysis for composite plate-cone reticulated shell
Plate-cone reticulated shell is a new type of space structures with good mechanical behavior and technical economy. In this paper, local buckling and influence factors of laminated composite plates for plate-cone reticulated shell were analyzed with theory of composite mechanics and theory of composite plate and shell through composite structure finite element method, a n d t h e mechanical characteristics of c omposite plate-cone re ticulated shell were studied, some important conclusions were obtained, which can provide theoretical foundation for practical design of composite plate-cone reticulated shell and laminated composite plates.
