Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of through-thickness compressive stress on mode II interlaminar crack propagation: A computational micromechanics approach
TL;DR: In this paper, a micromechanics framework for modelling the mode II interlaminar crack onset and propagation in fiber-reinforced composites is presented with the aim of modelling the micro-scale failure mechanisms that underlie interlinar crack propagation, and determining the effect of the through-thickness pressure on mode II fracture toughness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Micromechanical modelling of the longitudinal compressive and tensile failure of unidirectional composites: The effect of fibre misalignment introduced via a stochastic process
L.F. Varandas,Giuseppe Catalanotti,António R. Melro,Rodrigo P. Tavares,Rodrigo P. Tavares,Brian Falzon +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a three-dimensional micromechanical framework that is capable of analysing in detail the longitudinal tensile and compressive failure mechanisms which are inherent in unidirectional composites is presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed Tsai's Modulus (Tsai's modulus) to simplify the design, analysis and optimization of composite laminates, thus enabling lighter, stronger and better parts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing the current modelling approach for predicting the crashworthiness of Formula One composite structures
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assess the simplified block approach used in F1 to computationally predict crashworthiness, and present quasi-static and dynamic crush experiments of flat and tubular coupons to generate data for the modelling of a F1 Side Impact Structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental and numerical study of fastener pull-through failure in GFRP laminates
TL;DR: An experimental and numerical study of the fastener pull-through failure mode in glass-fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) laminates using both phenolic and vinylester resins is presented in this paper.
