Effective simulation of delamination in aeronautical structures using shells and cohesive elements
A cohesive element for shell analysis is presented. The element can be used to simulate the initiation and growth of delaminations between stacked noncoincident layers of shell elements. The procedure to construct the element accounts for the thickness offset by applying the kinematic relations of s...
