Progressive Failure Analysis of Double-Notched Composite Laminates
Failure analysis in composite laminates is traditionally modeled by the material property degradation method for the in-plane damage prediction which assumes that a damage material can be replaced by an equivalent material with degraded properties. The delamination in composites, on the other hand, …

Compressive response of notched composite-honeycomb sandwich panels
… to understand better the compressive response of notched composite sandwich panels. The quasi-static uniaxial compressive response of notched (circular through hole) E-glass/epoxy- NomexTM sandwich panels were studied experimentally. Two different woven fabric architectures were examined. The key …

The residual strength determination due to fatigue loading by fracture mechanics in notched composite materials
… is to predict the residual strength of notched composite Iaminates with various layups, subjected to low frequency fatigue loading with constant amplitude at room temperature, by using a material modeling approach, fracture and fatigue mechanics and the finite element method (FEM). For …

Damage characterization and modeling of notched graphite/epoxy sandwich panels in compression
… research has been carried out in this area for notched composite laminates, a relatively small fraction has dealt with compressive loading of composite honeycomb sandwich panels. Furthermore, little emphasis has been placed on identifying and modeling the damage mechanisms that contribute to …

Experimental and Numerical Analysis of Damage in Notched Composites
… Quasi-static tests were initially performed on notched composites using digital image correlation (DIC) to determine the strain profiles at selected transverse sections of the outer ply of the laminates and the static strength of the laminates. Subsequently, tension-tension fatigue tests were …
