MECHANICAL MODELING OF GLASS AND CARBON EPOXY COMPOSITES


Abstract eng:
A Theoretical model to predict the response of laminated composites is developed. The micromechanical model simulates the mechanical response of a multi layer composite laminate under uniaxial, biaxial, and flexural loading modes. The stacking sequence is utilized to obtain the overall stiffness matrix for each lamina. Effect of distributed cracking on the stiffness degradation of the cross ply layers under tensile loading is measured using a scalar damage parameter. The model is calibrated by predicting the ultimate strength of unidirectional, cross ply, and angle ply laminates under tensile and flexural loading.
