TL;DR: In this article, a transverselyisotropic elastic-plastic constitutive model for unidirectional fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) is presented, which is able to represent the fully nonlinear mechanical behavior under multi-axial loading conditions and under triaxial stress states prior to the onset of cracking.

TL;DR: In this article, a fully three-dimensional smeared crack model is proposed to predict the onset and propagation of ply failure mechanisms in polymer composites reinforced by unidirectional fibers.

TL;DR: In this paper, a finite element multiscale analysis is proposed that is able to predict material behavior of textile composites via virtual tests, solely from the (nonlinear) material behaviour of epoxy resin and glass fibers, as well as the textile fiber architecture.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new three-dimensional failure criteria for fiber-reinforced composite materials based on structural tensors is presented, which is able to account for the nonlinear shear response typically observed in fibre-reined polymers.

TL;DR: Numerical modeling of failure in advanced composite materials comprehensively examines the most recent analysis techniques for advanced composite material as mentioned in this paper and presents new and emerging advanced numerical algorithms for modeling and simulation of failure.
