Question: ANSYS & Laminate Composite Plate
Hi friends
I want to use ANSYS to find the maximum deflection of a laminate composite plate that is made of graphite epoxy .It has 100 mm width and 500 mm length.
The layup is [45(10),0(10)] (20 Layers).
The plate is simply supported along all 4 edges and is subjected to a uniformly distributed transverse direction load p=10,000 N/m2.
The material properties of the layers are as below:
[0][45]Longitudinal Young's Modulus(Gpa)14816.39Transverse Young's Modulus(Gpa)9.6516.39Longitudinal Shear Modulus(Gpa)4.5538.19Longitudinal Poisson's Ratio0.30.801
according to the above properties I filled the layer properties of shell99 (or solid191).But when I want to solve it,and error occurs due to layer properties of 45 degree plies,I don't know why this error occurs?! I assumed that 45 degree layers are transverse isotropic material(Is it true?) and with this assumption I've calculated complete material properties required for shell99...
Below is a captured image of the error window of ANSYS:
I appreciate any help

Check Major/Minor Poisson's ratio
R. Chennamsetti, Scientist, R&D Engineers, India
Check whether you are inputting major Poisson's ratio or minor ???
If the above error (in ANSYS) occurs, the diagonal elements of the stiffness matrix will become -ve.
You can assume the ply has transversely isotropic properties. For non-zero plies you need not calculate equivalent props. You have to mention layer number, orientation, thickness, material property number.
In material props list, you mention the properties of UD laminate only.
MP, EX,1,148e9
MP,EY,1,9.65e9
MP,EZ,1,9.65e9 ....etc. This material has a reference number '1'. For 45 degree plies mention the ply angle and material number as '1'
Thanks Ramdas...
I followed your advice,and fortunately my problem was solved.Thanks alot.

Laminated plate analysis using ansys
Hi all
i am trying to do an analysis for a laminated plate using a shell99 element and i have entered all the required data for this case study
Simply Supported Laminated Plate Problem Sketch
Material Properties Ex = 25 x 106 N/m2 Ey = 1 x 106 N/m2 υxy = 0.25 (Major Poisson's ratio) Gxy = G = 0.5 x 106 N/m2 Gyz = 0.2 x 106 N/m2 Geometric Properties plate dim = 10*10 m layer thickness = 0.025 m
The layup is [0,90,90,0}.
The plate is simply supported along all 4 edges and is subjected to a uniformly distributed transverse direction load p=1 N/m2.
but i always get the following error
young mudulus's ratio must be positive for material 1 element 1
can anyone help me with this error
give me your e-mail
give me your e-mail and i'll send you many things than can help you.
need the materials too

matlab coding for the simply supported laminate plate
Hi,
I am coding for the laminated composite plate with all 4 edges fixed using matlab..
before tht i wanna do analysis using the ANSYS .. so can anyone help me regading this..
(I am confused abt the element to be used for composite plate analysis and also whether i need to take care of the bonding of laminates)
Problem definition:
Stcq Seq [0 45 90]
thickness of plate: 0.127
Material properties of graphite/epoxy. orthotropic properties
hey u got any answer if u
hey u got any answer if u got plz send to this mail vamse4u@gmail.com i need failure analysis of laminate of glass epoxy in ansys
help
sir , in ansys they are asking 9 constants but in books 5 are given, wat to fill in rest.Gzx is not given.
composite plate
I am doing research on composite rush to solve the problem using Ansys. I do not understand what was the problem, hoping someone can just help me. if any reference you want to send it via mail me with.
I very thank you.

Hi,
You may start with 'composites' in ANSYS help. Later you may move on to
problems on composites in Verification Manual (VM).
