Synopsis

Modelling Damage, Fatigue and Failure of Composite Materials provides the latest research on the field of composite materials, an area that has attracted a wealth of research, with significant interest in the areas of damage, fatigue, and failure.

The book is a comprehensive source of physics-based models for the analysis of progressive and critical failure phenomena in composite materials, and focuses on materials modeling, while also reviewing treatments to give the reader thorough direction for analyzing failure in composite structures.

Part one of the book reviews the damage development in composite materials such as generic damage and damage accumulation in textile composites and under multiaxial loading, while part two focuses on the modeling of failure mechanisms in composite materials with attention given to fibre/matrix cracking and debonding, compression failure, and delamination fracture. Final sections examine the modeling of damage and materials response in composite materials, including micro-level and multi-scale approaches, the failure analysis of composite materials and joints, and the applications of predictive failure models.

À propos des auteurs

Professor Ramesh Talreja is Tenneco Endowed Professor in the Department of Aerospace Engineering and the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Texas A&M University, USA. He has published extensively in the fields of damage mechanics, fatigue, and failure of composite materials.

Professor Janis Varna is Professor Emeritus at the Department of Engineering Sciences and Mathematics, Luleå University of Technology, Sweden, and a Leading Researcher at Riga Technical University, Latvia. He has over 30 years of research experience in damage, fatigue, and failure of composite materials with particular emphasis on micro mechanics of fiber/matrix interaction in composites, damage evolution as well as on development of reliable test methodologies for short fiber composites and for fiber/matrix interface characterization.
