Abstract
Stacking sequence listings are presented for fully uncoupled Extensionally Isotropic (EILs), Fully Isotropic (FILs) and Quasi-Homogeneous Orthotropic (QHOLs) angle-ply Laminates, with up to 21 plies. All are sub-sets of a definitive list of Fully Orthotropic Laminates (FOLs), containing generally non-symmetric stacking sequences that are characterized in terms of angle- and cross-ply sub-sequence symmetries. Dimensionless parameters are given for each stacking sequence, from which the ABD matrix is readily derived. Expressions relating these dimensionless parameters to the well-known lamination parameters are also given, together with graphical representations of the feasible domains for Pi/3 and Pi/4 EILs and angle-ply QHOLs containing two and three ply orientations. The feasible domain for Pi/3 FILs is represented graphically by a single point, whereas the domain for angle-ply QHOLs containing four ply orientations is represented by a single stacking sequence.
