TLDR
In this article, the response of a finite-width composite laminate under uniform axial strain is treated through the application of classical elasticity theory, and finite-difference solution techniques are employed to obtain solutions for stresses and displacements throughout the region.Abstract:
The response of a finite-width composite laminate under uniform axial strain is treated through the application of classical elasticity theory. Finite-difference solution techniques are employed to obtain solutions for stresses and displacements throughout the region. Results for material properties typical of a high modulus graphite-epoxy composite material system are presented which explain the mechanism of shear transfer within a symmetric laminate. In addition, results of this work are compared to those given in a recent approximate formulation.read more

On kinematic coupling equations within the scaled boundary finite-element method
Jens Artel,Wilfried Becker +1 more
TL;DR: The scaled boundary finite element method as mentioned in this paper is a semi-analytical analysis technique, which combines the advantages of the finite element and the boundary-element method and is used for the analysis of the free-edge effect in laminated plates.

Interlaminar stress predictions for laminated composites under bending, torsion and their combined effect
Erian A. Armanios,Jian Li +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a simple analytical formulation is used to predict the interlaminar stresses in a symmetric laminate under extension, bending, torsion and their combined effect, based on a shear deformation theory and a sublaminate approach.

Free-edge singularities meet the microstructure: Important considerations
Joshua S. Dustin,R. Byron Pipes +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the significance of free-edge singularities in angle-ply laminates and due to fiber terminations is explored and results are compared to that of a singularity due to the presence of a crack in the same region.
Analysis of delamination
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of delamination on the fracture sequence and final fracture of graphite-epoxy laminates is discussed and the emphasis is on tensile fracture.

Carbon Fiber Composites
TL;DR: Carbon fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites can be said to have had their beginning in the 1950s and to have attained the status of a mature structural material in the 1980s as discussed by the authors.
