Abstract
For a linearly elastic fiber reinforced composite disk, the first variation of an arbitrary stress, strain and displacement functional corresponding to variation of material parameters is derived by using the direct and adjoint approaches to sensitivity analysis. The results are particularized to the case of total potential and complementary energies. The relevant optimality conditions for optimal design and identification problems are then derived.
