Abstract
Laminated composite sandwich panels have a layered structure, where individual
layers have randomly varying stiffness and strength properties. The presence of multiple failure
modes and load redistribution following partial failures are the reason for laminated composites
to exhibit system behavior from reliability point of view. The present paper discusses the specifics
of system reliability behavior of laminated composite sandwich panels, and solves an example
system reliability problem for a glass fiber-reinforced composite sandwich structure subjected
to in-plane compression.
