Abstract
null null The compressive kinking behavior of non-slender unidirectional glass null fiber-reinforced polymer null null (GFRP) specimens has been analyzed by finite element (FE) models. The experimentally observed imperfections, including the initial fiber waviness throughout the entire specimen volume and the scattered resin/interface defects, were taken into account in the FE models. The birth-and-death method was employed to simulate the...
