Fatigue Delamination Crack Growth in GFRP Composite Laminates: Mathematical Modelling and FE Simulation
Glass fibre-reinforced plastic (GFRP) composite laminates are used in many industries due to their excellent mechanical and thermal properties. However, these materials are prone to the initiation and propagation of delamination crack growth between different plies forming the laminate. The crack pr...
