Integrated Composite Analyzer With Damping Capabilities
Abstract
Integrated Composite Analyzer with Damping Capabilities (ICAN/DAMP) computer program combines comprehensive linear analysis of multilayered fiber composite material in ICAN programs LEW-15832 and LEW-15592 with prediction of damping in polymer-matrix composite. Analysis contains essential features needed for effective design of structural components made from fiber composites, including micromechanical design features to predict ply-level hygral, thermal, and mechanical properties, and laminate-analysis features to account for interply layer effects. Incorporates new module for synthesizing material damping from micromechanics to laminate level. Written in FORTRAN 77.
