Composites are being used in the place of metals in many industries as they have a lower
density and are cheaper than metals. In aerospace industries there is requirement for light …

This work details the application of cycle merging on a fatigue spectrum applied to a
unidirectional specimen. The specimen design has previously been the subject of a ground …

The applications of composite materials and adhesive-bonded joints in the aviation industry
have significantly increased in recent years and their damage assessment attracts a lot of …

In this study, an extended finite element method (XFEM)-based numerical analysis
procedure is developed as part of a framework for assessing damage slow growth behaviors …

A mode II delamination growth rate model was constructed using constant amplitude fatigue
data from mode II displacement-controlled testing, for the purpose of failure prediction …

This chapter focuses on deformation and fracture aspects of composite materials. In today's
world, we cannot think of life without the concept of composite being touched upon. For …

S-2 glass fiber draws attention because of its higher strength and elasticity module
compared to other glass fiber types. When cracks occur on these structures, which have their …

Variable amplitude fatigue testing is a time consuming process and a necessary part of
certification for aircraft structures. While the frequency of loading can be increased for testing …

Özet Son yıllarda, yapıların mekanik analizinde kullanılan deneysel, analitik ve nümerik
yöntemlere ek olarak makine öğrenmesi yaklaşımının da kullanılması giderek …
