## Abstract The results of an integrated microscopic/macroscopic finite element analysis of fracture in fiber‐reinforced composites are presented. A macroscopic analysis of a composite double‐cantilever‐beam (DCB) fracture toughness test specimen was carried out using a singular finite element meth

Ah&met-Welded and unwelded specimens of an air-melted laminar composite steel armor were tested for degradation of strength from ballistic impact. Specimens were impacted with cal. 0.30 AP and ball projectiles at various velocities and O-degree obliquity. During impact, specimens were tensile loaded
A comprehensive approach to the continuous damage of materials is formulated within the framework of thermodynamic reasoning. Particular emphasis is put on the application to composites. The starting point lies in the assumption that damage evolution can be described at the macroscopic scale by mean
