Abstract
This paper addresses a nonlinear finite element method for
the crippling analysis of composite laminated stringers.
Composite stringer is idealized by the nine-node laminated
shell element based on the first order shear deformation
theory. The stiffness degradation by the local failure is
simulated by the complete unloading method. A modified arc-length
algorithm is incorporated into the nonlinear finite
element method to trace the post-failure equilibrium path
after local buckling. Finite element results are compared with
those by experiments and show the excellent agreement. A
parametric study is performed to assess the effect of the
flange-width, web-height, and stacking sequence on the
buckling, local buckling, and crippling stresses of stringers.
