A numerical study of dynamic crack propagation in composites

Published: Sep 1, 1992
Abstract
: A numerical study was performed to investigate the dynamic crack propagation in fibrous composite plates utilizing the finite element method. A rectangular plate of uniform thickness, which had a propagation central crack, was used for the study. The plate was unidirectional composite panel and the load was applied in the longitudinal direction of the composite plate. Fracture energies were calculated for given speeds of cracks. The objective...
