Journal ArticleDOI
Transverse cracking of cross-ply laminates : Part 1. Analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the transverse cracking of cross-ply laminates, subjected to uniaxial tensile loading, and compared the results obtained by finite element analysis and analytical models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling the flexural behaviour of sandwich composite materials under cyclic fatigue
TL;DR: In this paper, a stiffness reduction approach was adopted which was further based on the interpolation by the empirical functions of our test results, whose coefficients depends on the material properties and loading conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flexural Fatigue Behavior of Cross-Ply Laminates: An Experimental Approach
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the mechanical behavior of different resin-epoxy laminates reinforced with cross-ply Kevlar and glass fibers under conditions of static and cyclic three-point bending.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental analysis of behavior and damage of sandwich composite materials in three-point bending. Part 1. Static tests and stiffness degradation at failure studies
TL;DR: The analysis of stiffness and the identification of rupture mechanisms during and after static tests of sandwich panels and their components have been investigated in this paper, showing that the sandwich structure has better mechanical characteristics compared to its components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of transverse cracking in cross-ply laminates during fatigue tests
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyse the progressive development of transverse cracking in cross-ply laminates subjected to uniaxial fatigue tests, based on statistical distributions along the specimen length for crack initiation and across the specimen width for crack growth across the width.
