Modeling and simulation of partially delaminated composite beams
A. Mahieddinet, M. Ouali and A. Mazouz

 
Abstract
    A finite-element model for beams with partially delaminated layers is used to investigate their behavior. In this formulation account is taken of lateral strains and the first-order shear deformation theory is used. Both displacement continuity and force equilibrium conditions are imposed between the regions with and without delamination. Numerical results of the present model are presented and its performance is evaluated for static and dynamic problems.
