Abstract
In this paper an energy-based failure envelope for unidirectional fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) has been developed. It is based on the stress and the damage energy release rate (DERR) components, which makes it suitable for being used as a damage surface in continuum damage mechanics (CDM), when a thermodynamically consistent evolution rule is intended to be used. The proposed failure surface is an interactive quadratic function of the DERR...
