A novel mode-dependent and probabilistic semi-discrete damage model for progressive failure analysis of composite laminates - Part I: Meshing strategy and mixed-mode law
A novel semi-discrete damage model (SD2M) is proposed for the progressive failure analysis (PFA) of composite structures. The presented method utilizes a separation of fiber and matrix failure modes and introduces a material strength distribution to thin strips of matrix-splitting elements in order...
