Thin-walled composite structures operating in the post-buckling regime needs a thorough
understanding of their stability behavior and failure mechanisms. For the accurate prediction …

Two aeronautical thermoplastic composite stiffened panels are analysed and tested to
investigate the buckling behaviour, the skin-stringer separation and the final failure mode …

Thermoplastic composite three-stringer panels with omega stiffeners and conduction welded
joints are designed, analysed and tested until final failure to investigate the performance of …

Composite materials are susceptible to delamination when undergoing fatigue loads. Being
able to accurately and efficiently predict the fatigue propagation of a delamination defect …

The durability and damage tolerance of postbuckled composite structures are issues that are
not completely understood and remain difficult to predict due to the nonlinearity of the …

The present paper introduces a global/local approach for the analysis of three-dimensional
(3D) stress states of composite laminated structures. It consists of a two-step procedure. In …

The postbuckling response and the collapse of composite specimens with a co-cured hat
stringer are investigated experimentally. The specimens are designed to evaluate the …

This study concerns the buckling and post-buckling performance of composite stiffened
panels with sub-stiffening structure subject to compression. The buckling response of the …

According to various experimental results, stiffened panels under compressive loading are
prone to debonding between the skin and the flange of the stringer. In this paper, a novel …

This study concerns a computational model for the postbuckling failure mechanism of
composite T-stiffened panels with different bonding methods. The model is then validated …
