... of solid–solid point contacts on transport/mechanical response, electrochemical performance, and failure modes such as particle cracking and delamination. Finally, we present our perspective on future research directions and opportunities to address the underlying electro-chemo-mechanical challenges...

...Ala Tabiei; Wenlong Zhang Composite laminate has extensive usage in the aerospace and automotive industries. Thus delamination, one of its most prevalent and challenging failure modes, has attracted substantial research efforts, and lead to the rapid development of both simulation and experiment...

.... Composite materials Delamination Fatigue multi-scale modeling Since the promises of weight loss, lower fuel consumption, and increased performance have been delivered by the use of UD composite laminates in high performance industries (e.g., aerospace, sports, etc.), other industries (e.g...

... and more reliable composite structures or components. However, efforts to include fatigue delamination in the simulation of composites have not yet been consolidated. Besides that, there is a lack of a proper categorization of the published methods in terms of their predictive capabilities...

...Christian N. Della; Dongwei Shu Fiber reinforced composite laminates are increasingly replacing traditional metallic materials. The manufacturing process and service of the composite laminates frequently lead to delamination. Vibration analysis is an integral part of most engineering structures...

... and movement on the strength and deformation of thin films are reviewed. The concepts and methods of the theoretical and numerical analysis of the crack propagation in thin films are discussed. The mechanisms and models of cracking, decohesion and delamination, the effects of the substrate properties, as well...

... with different lengths and widths are discussed. The problems associated with cracks or delaminations propagating between different materials are mentioned briefly, as well as a strategy to minimize these problems. Due to an increased interest in using a fracture mechanics–based approach to assess the damage...

... have been shown to be capable of detecting impact damage, transverse cracking, and delamination, and have the ability to monitor strain in structures. The introduction of optical fiber sensors into a composite material can inadvertently produce a geometrical discontinuity in the vicinity of the sensor...

...TE Tay Delamination is a major failure mode in laminated composites and has received much research attention. A huge amount of literature has been published on this subject, resulting in considerable improvement in our understanding of delamination behavior. A rather comprehensive review paper...

...Jean-Marie Berthelot A review of developments and understanding of transverse cracking and delamination in cross-ply laminates is presented. First, experimental investigations reported in the literature for analyzing the development of transverse cracking are considered. Next, characteristics...

...Antonio Miravete; Miguel A Jime´nez The present article is concerned with the application of the finite element method to the analysis of the onset of delamination growth in composites by means of the virtual crack closure technique (VCCT). The article reviews first the application of linear...
