Progressive failure analysis of bonded composite repairs

TL;DR: In this paper, a 3D progressive damage model was developed to study the tensile behavior of open-hole composite plates bonded with external composite patches, and the effects of several repair parameters on the failure initiation strength, ultimate strength and failure mechanism of these repaired structures were investigated.

Successive 3D FE analysis technique for characterization of fatigue crack growth behavior in composite-repaired aluminum plate

TL;DR: In this article, an analytical approach using successive finite element analysis technique was conducted to characterize the fatigue crack growth behavior of pre-cracked aluminum plates reinforced with composite patches, and the analytical predictions of both the crack front shape evolution and the fatigue life were in good agreement with the experimental observations.
