Geometrical non-linearity is one of the aspects to be taken into account for accurate analysis of fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs), since large displacements and rotations may be observed in many of its structural applications ...

Understanding the composite damage formation process and its impact on mechanical properties is a key step towards further improvement of material and higher use. For its accelerated application, furthermore, practice-related ...

A computational framework to model fatigue fracture in structures based on the phase-field method and the solid-shell concept is herein presented. With the aim of achieving a locking free solid-shell finite element formulation ...
