Abstract

Fiber-reinforced composites are playing very important role in manufacturing of various mechanical components finding the applications in domestic, industry, transportation, and aviation due to promised performance and lightweight compared to conventional materials. The current simulation study deals with the effect of fiber angle and plies thickness of laminated composite by varying the fiber angle as well as layer thickness in carbon epoxy composite. The orientation of fibers are varying from 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90° and the thickness of individual plies are varying from 1 to 0.4 mm with a constant axial load of 10,000 N. Further, it was found that the four layer composite with an individual layer thickness of 1 mm and the fiber orientation angle of 0° is having the best mechanical behavior with respect to both von-Mises as well as total deformation.
