Abstract
A numerical investigation was carried out in order to simulate experimental results previously obtained concerning two-dimensional (2D) in-plane crack propagation in laminated glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) plates. The laminated plates were designed with an embedded circular pre-crack and subjected to quasi-static out-of-plane loads. In order to study the transition from standard fracture mechanics tests, where the crack propagates only...
