Abstract
A finite composite laminate weakened by multiple elliptical holes of arbitrary distribution, arbitrary orientation and arbitrary dimension, is treated as an anisotropic, finite multiple connected thin plate. Using the complex potential method in plane theory of heat conduction and elasticity of an anisotropic body, the analytical solution of a finite composite laminated plate subjected to arbitrary mechanical and thermal loads with multiple elliptical holes is obtained by means of the Faber series expansion, mapping and the least square boundary collocation technique. The effects of some parameters on the thermostress distribution are studied in detail. Some conclusions are drawn.
