This article showcases the authors' predictions for Part B of the second World Wide Failure Exercise. Predictions are made using the failure criteria published in the submission for Part A. In several cases, the original predictions are found to match the experimental data well and no revisions are made. A novel constitutive model for unidirectional composite materials is used to improve predictions for cases involving multidirectional laminates.
