Micromechanics-based elastic-damage analysis of laminated composite structures

Abstract: a b s t r a c tBased on the micromechanics-based constitutive model, derived in our preceding work . A 3D-damage model for fiber-reinforced brittle composites with microcracks and imperfect , incorporating a multi-level damage model and a continuum damage model, the overall elastic behavior and damage evolution of laminated composite structures are studied in detail. The constitutive model is implemented into the finite element program ABAQUS using a user-subroutine UMAT to solve boundary value problems of the… Show more

“…4 But regardless of these engineering characteristics, laminated composites are more fragile and susceptible to damage. 5 Cylindrical shells have been a subject of frequent studies in aerospace, marine and energy structure applications. They have propensity to withstand huge axial compressive loads.…”

“…As a result, these models enable the mechanisms of fracture of structurally heterogeneous materials under plastic deformation to be studied and described in detail and their ultimate potentialities under one or another kind of loading to be predicted at the stage of design. Similar studies are made in the mechanics of composite materials (Bednarcyk and Arnold, 2001;Kontou, 2007;Kwon and Liu, 1997;Paul, 2012;Pavan et al, 2009;Prahl et al, 2007;Pyo and Lee, 2009;Segurado and LLorca, 2005;Xia et al, 2001). All those studies when specifying the mechanical properties of the constituents, used data obtained from standard testing of a material close to a constituent of a composite or a metal alloy in the chemical composition.…”

“…Due to a hierarchical composite structure, these studies need to cover multiple scale levels. The established modern paradigm for such studies is the multilevel approach for describing structurally inhomogeneous materials [1][2][3][4]. Multilevel models of plastic deformation and damage are advantageous over the classical approach adopted in mechanics in a way that they allow one to observe stress concentration phenomenon leading to microcrack emergence at early deformation stages.…”
