CLT

This repo contains matlab code for Classical Lamination Theory.

Features:

• micro mechanical model which represents the packing of the fibers inside the matrix.
• laminate composed of 2D plies - based on the classical lamination theory CLT
• model of a thin-walled, closed-cross section, beam-like profiles.
• thermal loads - work in progress
