Chapter
Improving the Static Structural Performance of Panels with Spatially Varying Material Properties Using Correlations
This chapter introduces an approach to systematically analyze stochastic distributions of spatially varying material properties in structures. The approach gives insight into how spatial variations of material...

Chapter
Variable Kinematic Shell Formulations Accounting for Multi-field Effects for the Analysis of Multi-layered Structures
This chapter presents refined shell finite element models with variable kinematics for the analysis of multi-layered structures involved in four physical fields: mechanical, electric, thermal, and hygroscopic....

Chapter
Post-buckling Progressive Failure Analysis of Composite Panels Using a Two-Way Global-Local Coupling Approach Including Intralaminar Failure and Debonding
A novel two-way global-local coupling approach to model progressive separation of skin and stringer in combination with intralaminar damage in stiffened CFRP panels under compression is presented. The methodol...

Chapter
Comparison of Mechanical Tests for the Identification of Composite Defects Using Full-Field Measurements and the Modified Constitutive Relation Error
Composite parts manufactured in large batches always present defects. These may not influence the behavior of the structure or might on the contrary be seriously detrimental to the performance of the component...
