Experimental and numerical analysis of wrinkles influence on damage mechanisms and strength of L-shape cross-ply composite beams
(Elsevier, 2022-03-28)In this work, experimental and finite element (FE) analysis of L-shape cross-ply fiber-reinforced composite beams are carried out to investigate the effect of out-of-plane wrinkles on the interlaminar strength and competing ... -
A micro-macro coupling and physics informed modeling approach for bearing failure with x-ray CT characterization
(AIAA SCITECH, 2022-01-03)The failure mechanism of composite bolted joints was investigated using an in-situ X-ray CT technique with SSB test. A physics-informed modeling approach was proposed based on the traditional CDM method and a static bearing ... -
Experimental Observations of Damage States in Unnotched and Notched 3D Orthogonal Woven Coupons Loaded in Tension
(American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2021-12-29)This paper describes a series of unnotched and notched tensile tests on two 3D orthogonal woven architectures loaded in the warp direction. Dogbone specimens were used for the unnotched tests, and open-hole specimens were ... -
Multiaxial fatigue damage assessment of repaired composite cruciform specimens using stress ratio dependent fatigue damage accumulation model
(American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc., 2021-12-29)The paper presents a combined experimental and numerical study of multiaxial fatigue damage accumulation in scarf-repaired cruciform specimens subjected to fatigue loading. The existing fatigue analysis module is improved ... -
