TLDR
In this article, a constitutive model was developed for FRP composite to simulate the elastic-damage to failure behaviors, and the results of the model predicted similar bending stiffness and damage zones, while single-layer model overestimated the composite damage behavior.About:

Topology-Optimized 4D Printing of a Soft Actuator
TL;DR: TO analysis is employed for achieving high bending deflection of a 3D printed polyelectrolyte actuator, which shows bending deformations in response to electrical stimuli in an electrolyte solution and proved the effectiveness of TO on achieving higher bending deformation and actuation rate against a uniformly 3Dprinted actuator.

TL;DR: A disordered shape was predicted for plastic deformation of the equilateral indentation mark, representing the interaction of the particles and matrix, which caused the experiment results reflect the local behaviour of the nanocomposite instead of the real material properties.

A constitutive model for anisotropic damage in fiber-composites
TL;DR: In this paper, a constitutive model for anisotropic damage is developed to describe the elastic-brittle behavior of fiber-reinforced composites and the corresponding rate-equations are subjected to the laws of thermomechanics.
Mixed-Mode Decohesion Finite Elements for the Simulation of Delamination in Composite Materials
TL;DR: In this article, a decohesion element with mixed-mode capability is proposed and demonstrated at the interface between solid finite elements to model the initiation and non-self-similar growth of delaminations.
