A Numerical Model for the Simulation of Fatigue Induced Damage Onset and Evolution

Abstract:

In this work, a numerical model for the simulation of the onset and propagation of fatigue induced damages through a GFRP panel loaded in tension is presented. The model has been validated by numerical/experimental comparisons in terms of stiffness reduction over the number of loading cycles, considering three different applied loads. Finally, the model has been adopted to study the damage behaviour of a panel with a central notch damage.
