Progressive Damage Model of FRP Composite Laminates with Central Hole

Article Preview

Abstract:

Progressive damage method is adopted to predict the static mechanics properties of FRP composite laminates with central hole. Progressive damage models with three different 3D failure criteria and material degradation models are established and analyzed via a user defined subroutine embedded into the general FEA package. Numerical results indicate that all the three 3D failure criteria can simulate the failure process of FRP laminates with central hole, but the final failure load is different. Degradation coefficient and the finite element mesh have significant effect on the numerical results.
