Book Description
Ongoing research into interlaminar stresses and delamination failure in laminated composites has pointed out the lack of a practical and reliable method for measuring the through-the-thickness strength of composite materials, a necessary parameter in any strength-of-materials approach for prediction of delamination initiation and growth. In this work, a specimen has been developed which allows 13.4-mm-thick laminates to be tested to failure in pure [sigma]zz (out-of-plane tension, or "flatwise loading"). This is achieved by bonding aluminum loading bars to a composite specimen tapered through its thickness. This specimen allows direct measurement of the through-the-thickness strength of such laminates. This specimen was used to measure both the transverse and through-the-thickness strength of AS4/3501-6 graphite/epoxy. The transverse strength of 57.6 MPa obtained showed good correlation with that measured with standard coupons, giving confidence in the specimen design. The measured through-the-thickness strength was 43.0 MPa. The through-the-thickness strength appeared to be independent of layup, as unidirectional and cross-ply laminates yielded only negligibly different results. Suggestions are also given as to how the specimen can be improved to facilitate manufacture and testing.

Book Description
Summary: A Generalized Multiscale Analysis Approach brings together comprehensive background information on the multiscale nature of the composite, constituent material behaviour, damage models and key techniques for multiscale modelling, as well as presenting the findings and methods, developed over a lifetime's research, of three leading experts in the field. The unified approach presented in the book for conducting multiscale analysis and design of conventional and smart composite materials is also applicable for structures with complete linear and nonlinear material behavior, with numerous applications provided to illustrate use. Modeling composite behaviour is a key challenge in research and industry; when done efficiently and reliably it can save money, decrease time to market with new innovations and prevent component failure.
