[0032] Step S10: Figure 2 As shown, a composite material finite element geometric model containing a layer 14 is established. The composite material finite element geometric model 10 includes an upper laminate 11 and a lower laminate 12. The middle part between the upper and lower laminates is the layer 14, and both sides of the layer 14 are adhesive layers 13.

[0033] In this application, the finite element model of the composite material is established using Abaqus software.

[0034] like Figure 3 The figure shows a detailed dimensional schematic diagram of a composite material finite element geometric model established in an embodiment of the present application. In this embodiment, the lengths of the upper and lower layers are both 200 mm, the sum of their thicknesses is 20 mm, the length of layer 12 is 20 mm, and the rest is a glue layer.

[0035] Step S20, determine the material data of the upper and lower laminates of the composite material, lay the upper and lower laminates of the composite material using a constant type unidirectional tape in a predetermined laying order to obtain the upper and lower laminates, determine the material performance data of the constant type unidirectional tape, establish the solid shell section (Continuum Section) of the upper and lower laminates of the composite material, define the solid shell section of the composite material according to the material performance data of the unidirectional tape, give the laying angles of the upper and lower laminates and the laying coordinate system of the upper and lower laminates, and assign the solid shell section of the composite material to the upper laminate 11 and the lower laminate 12.

[0036] For example, in this embodiment of the present application, the material properties of the unidirectional tape (in MPa) are:

[0037] The longitudinal elastic modulus E1 is 135300;

[0038] The transverse elastic modulus E2 is 9000;

[0039] The elastic modulus E3 in the thickness direction is 135300;

[0040] The longitudinal and transverse Poisson's ratio Nuc12 is 0.24;

[0041] The longitudinal thickness Poisson’s ratio Nuc13 is 0.24;

[0042] The transverse thickness Poisson's ratio Nuc23 is 0.46;

[0043] The longitudinal and transverse shear elastic modulus G12 is 4500;

[0044] The longitudinal shear elastic modulus G13 is 4500;

[0045] The transverse thickness shear elastic modulus G23 is 3300.

[0050] For example, in this embodiment of the present application, the material properties of the adhesive layer 13 are:

[0051] The longitudinal elastic modulus E / Enn is 570000;

[0052] The transverse elastic modulus G1 / Ess is 570000;

[0053] The elastic modulus G2 / Ett in the thickness direction is 570,000.

[0066] Step S60: fix one end of the composite material structure simulation model and freely load the other end, establish a buckling analysis step and submit it for analysis to obtain multi-order buckling modes of the composite material structure.

[0067] For example, in this embodiment of the present application, the buckling mode of the composite material structure obtained under the above conditions is:

[0068] First-order buckling mode: 0.99226, the first-order buckling mode is as follows Figure 5 As shown;

[0069] Second-order buckling mode: -1.0671;

[0070] Third-order buckling mode: 2.3047;

[0071] Fourth-order buckling mode: 3.7630;

[0072] Fifth-order buckling mode: 9.3415, the fifth-order buckling mode is as follows Figure 6 shown.
