Analysis of crack propagation in double cantilever beam tests of multidirectional laminates

This paper presents numerical analyses of crack propagation in double cantilever beam (DCB) tests of multidirectional laminates. Three-dimensional finite element models were used for application of the virtual crack closure technique and for simulation of crack growth with a progressive damage model...
