Finite element modeling of partially delaminated composite beams with contact-impact conditions

A new finite element modeling is presented to investigate the static and dynamic behavior of laminated composite beams with partial delamination. In this study, a newly developed rectangular beam element is used. The element has lateral and axial displacements as degrees of freedom but no rotation....
