Additional information
Delamination plays crucial role in failure of composite structures. It is widely believed to be only relevant for through-thickness loading, but paper demonstrates that it also controls in-plane failure, and that there is an optimal amount of delamination that leads to highest strength. Work underpins much of research in £5.7M core programme of Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre (UTC), where analysis methods are being developed to address this key issue for composite use in aero-engines [contact: Composites UTC Coordinator, Rolls-Royce plc.].
