Fiber metal laminates (FMLs) comprised of metal alloy and composite materials have been
extensively applied in a broad range of engineering structures in virtue of their outstanding …

This review paper summarizes the current state-of-art and challenges for the future
developments of fiber-reinforced composites for structural applications with multifunctional …

In this paper, the impact damage of composite laminates in the form of intra-and inter-
laminar cracking was modelled using stress-based criteria for damage initiation, and fracture …

In the framework of the Cost Action CERTBOND (Reliable roadmap for certification of
bonded primary structures), a wide group of researchers from 27 European Countries have …

The use of composite materials in several sectors, such as aeronautics and automotive, has
been gaining distinction in recent years. However, due to their high costs, as well as unique …

This study investigates the stability and failure analysis of thin-walled composite plate
elements weakened by cut-out and subjected to axial compression. Tested plates were …

This paper presents an anisotropic damage model suitable for predicting failure and post-
failure behavior in fiber-reinforced materials. In the model the plane stress formulation is …

Hydraulic fracturing has been widely used in tight reservoir to generate fractures to improve
the conductivity and productivity. However, due to combined effects of volcanism, tectonic …

To predict the damage behaviours of composite sandwich structures with a honeycomb core
subjected to low-velocity perforation impact, a numerical model was developed addressing …

A bottom‐up, multiscale modeling approach is presented to carry out high‐fidelity virtual
mechanical tests of composite materials and structures. The strategy begins with the in situ …
