Cohesive models for damage evolution in laminated composites
Qingda Yang,Brian N. Cox +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a cohesive element is presented for simulating three-dimensional, mode-dependent process zones, where the delamination crack shape can follow its natural evolution according to the evolving mode conditions calculated within the simulation.

Delamination—a damage mode in composite structures
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the state of the art of delamination behavior and its effect on structural performance, analytical and experimental techniques to predict its behavior and some preventive measures to delay the delamination so as to make the structure more damage tolerant.

Introduction To Composite Materials
TL;DR: The combination of materials to form a new material system with enhanced material properties is a well documented historical fact as discussed by the authors, which is why many artisans from the Mediterranean and Far East used a form of composite technology in molding art works which were fabricated by layering cut paper in various sizes for producing desired shapes and contours.
