A constitutive model for fiber reinforced polymer plies – Implicit anisotropic evolution of damage and plasticity based on effective strengths

The present paper proposes a constitutive model for the prediction of damage and plasticity in continuous fiber reinforced polymer plies. The model combines an explicit damage model for fiber rupture, an implicit damage model for matrix cracking, and a plasticity model for unrecoverable strains. The...
