  Gunaratne, SKA; Lewangamage, CS [Conference-Abstract]

  Sri Lanka is considered to be in an aseismic zone (zone 0) away from major plate boundaries or any active faults. However, the first Earthquake hazard recorded on 14th April 1615 in Colombo with about 2000 deaths and ...
• Multi-scale modelling of Thin woven composites 

  Mahendra, WKS; Mallikarachchi, HMYC [Article-Abstract]

  It has been observed that the bending stiffness of thin composites made with two ply plain-weave carbon fibre reinforced plastic are not accurately modelled by classical laminate theory. More accurate predictions can be ...
• Simulation of low cycle fatigue with Abaqus/FEA 

  Karivawasam, KKGKD; Mallikarachchi1, HMYC [Conference-Abstract]

  Low cycle fatigue is an important design consideration for large steel structures and metallic machine components. Accurate prediction of fatigue endurance is essential to design the elements subjected to fatigue. The ...
