ABSTRACT:
A flywheel for use as an energy storage device is made of hoops of different fiber composite layers, the radial thickness of each hoop and the physical properties of the fiber composite in each loop being chosen by a computer modeling optimization procedure to maximize total energy of storage while minimizing radial stress.
