Modelling Delaminations in Composite Panels: Including Novel Theories for Post-Buckling and Delamination Growth

Even though composite materials are being applied more and more often, these materials are often not used to their full potential. In particular, composite materials are very sensitive to Compression-After-Impact (CAI), typically leading to knockdown factors in the order of 0.65. Many researchers have tried to predict the effects of Compression...
