Abstract

Current failure theories for predicting failure in composite laminates have been studied and compared in a systematic and detailed manner, to identify the strengths and weaknesses of each theory, together with a ranking of the overall effectiveness of each theory. Careful reading of this analysis and study of figures provided will inform the reader when selecting an appropriate failure theory for use in a given design situation. It will also provide a qualitative assessment of the likely accuracy and reliability of the prediction in a given circumstance.
