Analysis of delamination of composite laminates through the XFEM based on the Layerwise displacement theory

Composite laminates are being more employed as fundamental structures due to its low weight and high stiffness. An example of this innovation is the primary structures of modern aircraft, which are lighter than the material formerly used. To predict the material response as load gradually incre...
