Blind benchmarking of seven longitudinal tensile failure models for two virtual unidirectional composites
...
Many models for prediction of longitudinal tensile failure of unidirectional (UD) composites have been developed in the last decades. These models require significant assumptions and simplifications, but their consequences for the predictions are often not clearly understood. This paper therefore presents a blind benchmark of seven different models...
On the role of dynamic stress concentrations and fracture mechanics in the longitudinal tensile failure of fibre-reinfor...
This paper investigates the role of dynamic stress concentrations, and of fracture mechanics-driven growth of critical clusters of fibres, on the longitudinal tensile failure of fibre-reinforced composites. For this purpose, we developed a semi-analytical fibre bundle model to simulate the longitudinal tensile failure of large composite bundles of ...
