Homerwork 4 Composite Materiales

1.-Proof that for a Monoclinic Material (one plane of symmetry) the constants
C14=C15=C24=C25=C34=C35=C46=C56=0

2.- Proof that for an othotropic material (3 planes of symmetry) the cosntants

C14=C15=C16=C24=C25=C26=0

C34=C35=C36=C45=C46=C56=0

3.-Using Abaqus, Ansys or the software package of your choice. Find the First 3 modes of vibration
(print the frequencies in Hz) of a beam fixed at one end (x=0) and simply supported at the other
end (x=L).

The beam is a W410 x 85 beam made of aluminum A6061-T6 and have a length of 2 m.

4.-A plane wing is modeled as a plate fixed on one of its borders as shown in the figure. The wing is
made of 8 layers of carbon fiber of high strength each of 2 mm as shown in the figure. Determine
the first 10 frequencies and mode of vibration of the wing.
