Abstract

A study based on the transient responses of bio-inspired helicoidal laminated composite plates is performed by using a higher-order finite element model (HOFEM) consisting of the thickness stretching effect. The obtained results show good agreement with those available in the open literature. The shear locking phenomena is not inspected by employing the developed HOFEM for the helicoidal lamination schemes. The effects of path of the concentrated moving load, lamination scheme, boundary condition, speed, aspect and orthotropy ratios on the transient responses are investigated. Dynamic dimensionless center deflections and dynamic amplification factors are affected by considering not only the lamination scheme but also the path of the load, boundary condition, orthotropy and aspect ratios.
