Abstract

Using variable separation approach and series solving method of differential equations, analytical solutions for temperature and thermo-mechanical stresses in cross-ply laminated composite cylinder with finite length are presented in this article. The cylinder is assumed to be simply supported at its two ends and is subjected to non-uniform thermal and mechanical loadings on the inner and outer surfaces. As an example, numerical results of temperature distribution, stress fields, and interlayer stresses of a four-layer laminated composite cylinder are graphically presented and briefly discussed.
