The application of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites is gaining increasing
popularity in impact-resistant devices, automotives, biomedical devices and aircraft …

Recent developments in engineering and technology have brought about serious and
enlarged demands for reliability, safety and economy in wide range of fields such as …

This review aims to assess publications relevant to understanding the rate-dependent
dynamic behaviour of glass-and carbon-fibre reinforced polymer composites (FRPs). FRPs …

An energy-like error functional is introduced in the context of the ill-posed problem of
boundary data recovering, which is well known as a Cauchy problem. Links with existing …

The objective (mesh-independent) simulation of evolving discontinuities, such as cracks,
remains a challenge. Current techniques are highly complex or involve intractable …

A high-fidelity virtual tool for the numerical simulation of low-velocity impact damage in
unidirectional composite laminates is proposed. A continuum material model for the …

The performance of continuum material models for mesolevel modeling of progressive
failure in composite laminates is examined. Two different continuum models are used: a …

Laminated composites are designed to withstand significant loads thanks to the cooperation
and interaction of plies with different orientations. Due to the growing use of these materials …

An orthotropic constitutive model is developed in order to capture the complex response of
unidirectional fibrous materials with arbitrary orientation under a three-dimensional (3D) …

This article proposes a new approach to train physics‐augmented neural networks with
observable data to represent mechanical constitutive laws. To train the neural network and …
