The stress analysis of multi-layered hybrid composite
pipes with symmetrical orientation angles, under internal pressure, was
investigated. The codes of numerical models were created in ANSYS software for
numerical analyses. Two inner surfaces
of first model are E-glass fiber/epoxy and two outer surfaces of its are carbon/epoxy
(AS4/3501-6). Inner surfaces of second model are carbon/epoxy (AS4/3501-6) and
outer surfaces of its are E-glass fiber/epoxy. The problem was studied using a computational tool based on the Finite
Element Method (FEM). Each layer of the composite pipes was examined
with different orientation angles. The
hoop and shear stresses were obtained numerically for each layer. Also, radial,
tangential, axial and shear stresses were determined in the thickness direction
of the composite pipes. The shear extension coupling was considered because the
lay-up angles with [+ θ, – θ]s layers were in the different radii.
