Optimum design of composite laminates using genetic algorithms
TL;DR: In this article, the use of genetic algorithms (GAs) for the design of composite laminates is presented, where the design variables are the lamina orientations and stacking sequence required for maximum laminate strength and/or stiffness with minimum weight.

Temporal Operators for Nonlinear Structural Dynamics Problems
TL;DR: In this paper, three of the most often used numerical integration schemes for the geometrically nonlinear response analysis of structural components are evaluated based on the ease of problem formulation, machine strage required, and speed and accuracy of solution.

- 24 Oct 1988
TL;DR: In this paper, an apparatus for attaching external stores or loads on a thin walled pole includes a first, open-ended and externally threaded hollow sleeve defining a shoulder at one end, and a second, open ended and internally threaded hollow shoulder.

Dynamic Analysis of a Deployable Space Structure
TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical model and a corresponding simulation code have been developed for investigating the free-vibration and forced-response behavior of a deployable space structure, where the mast is modeled as an Euler beam column and the solar array was modeled as a membrane.
