Computational mechanics of fracture on advanced aerospace structures
In this thesis, the computational simulation of cracks in advanced composite structures subjected to biaxial loading is studied. A structural integrity analysis using the eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM) is considered for simulating the crack behaviour of a chopped fibre-glass-reinforced polyes...
