STRESS DISTRIBUTION AND DEFORMATION OF ADHESIVE-BONDED LAMINATED COMPOSITE BEAMS

A study is reported of the 3-dimensional elasticity solution of flexure and torsion in adhesive-bonded multilayered beams of uniform cross section having one end fixed and the other end loaded by transverse forces. The study found that the elementary beam theory (Beer and Johnston 1981) based on the assumption that plane sections of the beam remain plane after deformation yields an exact elasticity solution for the normal stress for multilayered beams if certain conditions are satisfied. These and other findings are discussed.
