Abstract:Application of different damage modeling approaches for use with composite materials and composite material structures has grown with increasing computational ability. However, assumptions are often made for "worst case" scenarios with these modeling techniques In order to develop a tool that will allow for accurate analysis of a complete structure, modeling approaches must be optimized by including defects of different parameters. It was the optimization of these approaches that was investigated herein with s… Show more
