Investigations of the fatigue performance of composite materials have accompanied their
introduction in several engineering domains since the 1950s. An abundance of publications …

In this article, we review the experimental research and modeling of fiber reinforced polymer
composite materials subjected to variable amplitude fatigue. In general, these models are …

The fatigue behavior of (±45) 2S angle-ply glass/epoxy composite laminates was
investigated. Rectangular specimens were subjected to constant amplitude fatigue loading …

An artificial neural network has been proved to be a sufficient tool for modelling fatigue life of
multidirectional composite laminates made of GFRP composite materials and tested under …

The durability of structural components under fatigue loading is a huge concern, especially
in laminated composites. During the last few years, flax fibers have also gained an …

The influence of the constant life diagram (CLD) formulation on the fatigue life prediction of
composite materials was examined. Most commonly used and recently proposed CLDs …

A comprehensive fatigue analysis framework for composite wind turbine blades has been
developed. It includes variable wind loads from wind field simulation and aerodynamic …

Common maintenance strategies applied to wind turbines include 'Time-Based'which
involves carrying out maintenance tasks at predetermined regular-intervals and 'Failure …

Laminated composite structures have a distinct inherent potential for optimization due to
their tailorability and their associated complex failure mechanisms that makes intuitive …
