Abstract

For the simulation of the interaction of elastic waves in CFRP Plates with inhomogeneities and defects the spectral finite element method (SEM) is under investigation. The SEM uses high-order shape functions which are composed of Lagrange polynomials with nodes at the Gauss-Lobatto quadrature (GLq) points. In this way we obtain a diagonal mass matrix which makes an explicit time scheme more efficient. In a numerical example based on the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) a computation by FEAP of an interaction with an inhomogeneity is presented. (© 2012 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
