Abstract:Collapse of panels under transverse loads has been reported dependent on formation of some unstable subregions surrounded by failure lines (hinges) within the panels, however such a collapse mechanism has been less investigated for the composite panels. In this paper, the significance of residual strength in the flexural failure lines around the unstable subregions through the collapse of GFRP panels was investigated. In the experimental program, the panels made of E-glass/vinylester composite laminates with v… Show more
