Modelling damage in multidirectional laminates subjected to multi-axial loading: Ply thickness effects and model assessment

Tobias Laux et al.

Summary: The study assesses a meso-scale damage modelling framework for composite laminates using experimental data obtained from a modified Arcan fixture. The model predicts multi-axial open-hole specimen strength with a mean relative error of 15%, showing good agreement with full-field measurements but revealing limitations in predicting shear-dominated damage modes.

Investigating the roles of fiber, resin, and stacking sequence on the low-velocity impact response of novel hybrid thermoplastic composites

M. E. Kazemi et al.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of different fiber types, resin types, and stacking sequences on the dynamic response of fiber-reinforced polymer composite laminates under low-velocity impact tests. Results show that the hybrid system with UHMWPE fibers on the sides demonstrates lower structural loss and absorbed energy, and the newly developed TP laminate exhibits extended plasticity and ductile behavior. Additionally, the TP laminate shows lower structural loss, contact force, and absorbed energy compared to the TS counterparts.
