Abstract

In this paper the exact moisture concentration function m(z, t) is used to compute the hygroscopic residual stresses in laminated composites. The governing equations were established by using a full higher-order displacement theory. Hygroscopically induced residual stresses in thick graphite-epoxy composite laminates: Cross-ply [0/90] 8 based on this approach were compared with those obtained by assumption: the moisture concentration m is a constant in all plies through the laminates thickness
