Simple Laminate Composites Solver

While in college, I noticed a lack of analysis and optimization in my school club's composites. Parts either came in oversized, or composite parts were opted out of as there was no best practice to vet their safety or performance. In an attempt to make our teams more competitive, I developed a simple tool to provide anisotropic properties for FEM models, as well as provide simple stress checks to validate said FEMs. 

Calculations come from "Principles of Composite Material Mechanics" by Ronald F. Gibson. It was used to verify stress analysis on OTRA (Oregon Tech Rocketry and Aerospace)'s composite fins as well as verify the minimum allowable thickness for Oregon Tech's kevlar impact panel.

In good spirit, this code was used as ammo in a friendly rivalry between Oregon Tech Rocketry & Aerospace and Oregon Tech Racing. I couldn't bring myself to remove it from the final product.
