Hi,
I've come across this notation to describe a composite ply layup:
[2/4/4/2] – [45/0/-45/45/90/-45]s
I know that the second part is notation for: [45/0/-45/45/90/-45/-45/90/45/-45/0/45]
But what is the [2/4/4/2] in referrence to?
I have noticed that 2+4+4+2 = 12, and there are 12 ply orientations but I don't know if that is coincidence.
Thanks for any help people can share on this.
