Predicting matrix failure in composite structures using a hybrid failure criterion
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed several four point bend tests on a typical stacking sequence used in composite structures and found that matrix failure was poorly predicted at the lamina level, whilst a hybrid failure criterion incorporating the 1st Stress Invariant and Drucker-Prager failure criterion at the micromechanical level gave a much better prediction.

The mathematical theory of equilibrium cracks in brittle fracture
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a unified view of the way basic problems in the theory of equilibrium cracks are formulated and discuss the results obtained thereby, and the object of the theory is the study of the equilibrium of solids in the presence of cracks.
