Delamination significantly undermines the integrity and performance of composite materials,
impacting their application in engineering structures. This comprehensive review …

Interfaces play a critical role in modern structures, where integrating multiple materials and
components is essential to achieve specific functions. Enhancing the mechanical …

The influence of the delamination direction with respect to the fiber orientation in adjacent
plies on the apparent interlaminar toughness is considered by proposing a general cohesive …

Delamination is a major failure mode affecting laminated composite structures. This failure
mechanism, if not properly monitored, can lead to uncontrolled cracks growth and premature …

In this study, a novel experimental approach was devised to investigate shear dominant and
combined opening-shear planar delamination behaviours in composite laminates subjected …

L‐shaped stiffened composite panels inevitably produce delamination defects during
manufacturing and service, which seriously affect the load‐bearing performance of the …

Mixed mode delamination is prone to occur in composite laminates subjected to complicated
loading. In current study, the modified maximum principal stress (M-MPS) criterion and the …

The strength of a lamina of a laminate was considered from almost the very beginning of the
application of composites as a value depending on the lamina thickness. This was …

Existing interface models are often inaccurate when modeling delamination of Fiber-
Reinforced Polymer (FRP) structures, because they do not account for the non-local effects …

The mode I delamination properties between carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) plies
are difficult to measure because the coupling between the intralaminar and interlaminar …
