A micromechanics-based continuum damage mechanics approach to the mechanical behaviour of brittle matrix composites
The thesis describes the development of a new continuum damage mechanics (hereafter, CDM) model for the deformation and failure of brittle matrix composites reinforced with continuous fibres. The CDM model is valid over sizes scales large compared to the spacing of the fibres and the dimensions of t...
