Filament wound glass/epoxy and carbon/epoxy pressure vessels were designed using a data-driven evolutionary approach and classical mechanics-based analysis. Analytical solutions for three known end domes and an end dome based on Hoffman's criterion were used to create surrogate models through two different evolutionary optimization algorithms. Composite pressure vessels are manufactured by filament winding. The stresses in the end domes were evaluated analytically and compared, and the critical areas of the shells were evaluated using the Hoffman strength criterion. The best dome shape for given material and polar hole/equator ratio was selected to address various types of failure.
Filament wound glass/epoxy and carbon/epoxy pressure vessels were designed using a data-driven evolutionary approach along with a classical mechanics-based analysis. Analytical solutions for three known end domes (a spherical shell, a geodesic-isotensoid shell and a shell based on minimizing of the Tsai-Hill's criterion) and end dome based on Hoffman's criterion were used to create surrogate models through two different evolutionary optimization algorithms: Evolutionary Neural Net (EvoNN) and Bi-objective Genetic Programming (BioGP) and bi-objective evolutionary optimization studies were carried out using them. Composite pressure vessels are manufactured by means of filament (helical) winding. The stresses in the end domes were evaluated analytically and compared with each other. Hoffman strength criterion was chosen for the evaluation of the critical areas of the shells. Moreover, the best dome shape for given material and polar hole/equator ratio was selected for various types of failure.

Experimental and Numerical Analyses of Optimized Composite Profiles for Aircraft Construction

Z. Padovec, J. Krena, R. Sedlacek, T. Zamecnikova

Summary: The study describes the design, finite-element analysis, and testing of two optimized composite profiles used for joining aircraft structures. Profiles with T and Y shapes were manufactured using thermoforming technology by a one-shot process. Both static and fatigue tests confirmed that the profiles could withstand the prescribed load without degradation, consistent with FE simulations.

Summary: The strength analyses of the junction between cylindrical part and different types of known end domes for filament wound composite pressure vessels were performed. The study also deals with the design of an optimal end dome shape that takes into account the junction area. The results indicate a strong dependence of the optimal end dome shape on material properties.
