The shear strength and progressive damage responses of 2D-triaxially braided composite
(2DTBC) panel under shear loading are predicted by multi-scale modeling approaches. A …

Composite structural failure usually entails complicated interactions between intralaminar
and interlaminar damage. In this paper, a novel discontinuous solid-shell finite element …

In this study, the effect of carbon nano‐tubes (CNTs) and fiber carbons on vibration
frequency of delaminated anti‐symmetric cross‐ply cylindrical shells is investigated. In this …

This article proposes a damage initiation criterion based on the total strain energy density
(SED) for glassy polymers such as epoxy resins. The proposed damage initiation model was …

A displacement-based finite element model for simulating delamination damage in multi
walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) filled GFRP composite plates using higher order shear …

The interface debonding in carbon fiber-reinforced polymers is analyzed and evaluated
using the extended finite element method (XFEM). In order to accurately evaluate the …

This paper deals with layered plates and shells subjected to static loading. The kinematic
assumptions are extended by a jump function in dependence of a damage parameter …

RESUMO A análise estrutural de placas e cascas é um tópico de extrema relevância na
engenharia estrutural e tem recebido crescente atençao nas últimas décadas, compondo …

Aufgrund ihrer mechanischen Eigenschaften ersetzen Verbundwerkstoffe zunehmend
klassische metallische Materialien. Aus diesem Grund stellt die Simulation von …

First and above all, I praise God, the almighty for providing me this opportunity and granting
me the capability to proceed successfully. This thesis appears in its current form due to the …
