Stiffness reduction resulting from transverse cracking in fiber- reinforced composite laminates

Several damage modes, including fiber breakage, delamination, and transverse cracking, have been observed to contribute to the mechanical degradation of fiber-reinforced composite laminates. In this investigation, the effect of transverse cracking on laminate stiffness was studied. Four. glass-epoxy...
