Abstract: | An original, ply-level, computationally efficient, three-dimensional (3D) composite damage model is presented in this paper, which is applicable to predicting the low velocity impact response of unidirectional (UD) PMC laminates. The proposed model is implemented into the Finite Element (FE) code ABAQUS/Explicit for one-integration point solid elements and validated against low velocity impact experimental results. |
