摘要: The stiffness reduction as a result of multiple transverse cracking in cross-ply laminates and the crack density dependence on applied tensile stress are analyzed by linear elastic fracture mechanics. field distribution is obtained principle minimum complementary energy. Two models suggested which describe non-uniform thickness direction 0° layer. They contain variational approach presented Hashin particular case. Elastic ply properties Mode I critical strain energy release rate GIc for experimental data needed. Model predictions compared with glass fiber/epoxy, AS4/3502, AS/3501-06 carbon fiber/epoxy laminates. from both constraint effect saturation phenomenon.
