Additional information

The failure mechanism of fibre composite T-piece specimens under mixed mode loading was investigated for the first time by simulating multi-delamination using a modified cohesive zone model with a new coupled damage scale introduced. It revealed that the interaction between tensile and bending plays an important role in the failure mechanism. This work formed the basis for a new proposal to EPSRC for developing an extended finite cohesive element enriched by a mixed damage scale.
