Analytical prediction model for non-symmetric fatigue crack growth in Fibre Metal Laminates
Source abstract
Abstract
This paper proposes an analytical model for predicting the non-symmetric crack growth and accompanying delamination growth in FMLs. The general approach of this model applies Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics, the principle of superposition, and displacement compatibility based on the understanding of deformation behaviour in eccentrically cracked metal panels. The non-symmetric crack growth behaviour of two crack tips and accompanying asymmetric load transfer from the eccentrically cracked metal layers to the intact bridging fibres are successfully predicted with the model. The predicted crack growth rates and delamination evolution are compared to test data, good correlation is observed.
