FE Modelling and Analysis of Mixed Mode Delamination in Composite Laminates
Abstract: A composite is a structural material that consists of two or more constituents combined at a macroscopic level and not soluble in each other. The advantages of composites over conventional materials are its light weight, high strength, design flexibility, dimensional stability, etc. Although Composite materials are advantageous than conventional materials, there are some defects in composite materials too, which are Fibre-matrix debonding, fibre misalignment, Delamination, Matrix cracking, Impact damage, etc. …
