Fatigue delamination damage is one of the most important fatigue failure modes for
laminated composite structures. However, there are still many challenging problems in the …

In this study, a novel model for simulating strength and fracture energy reductions based on
the stress and strain histories of a carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) ply is developed …

The failure of composite laminates under cyclic fatigue loads is complex, as multiple failure
mechanisms are in play at different scales and interact with each other. Predicting the …

The fatigue behavior of composite materials is still a very challenging issue for the scientific
community. So far, several numerical methodologies allow us to faithfully simulate the …

Thin-ply composites are promising structural materials because of their excellent damage
resistance and fatigue properties, as well as the advantage of improved design freedom in …

Efficient yet reliable predictive modelling tools for damage tolerance analysis became an
