Investigation of constraint effects on flaw growth in composite laminates

An investigation was conducted to study the constraint effects on flaw growth in composite laminates. Results were presented for the case of a transverse flaw in an interior ply perpendicular to the loading axis. Two orientations of the flawed ply were examined (0 and 90 degrees), and two distinctly...
