Abstract

GLARE (Aluminium with glass fibres) has become known since it was successfully and widely used in aircraft structure for its excellent fatigue and damage tolerance behavior. In this study, fatigue testing samples with 3/2 Glare were designed according to the standard. The finite element method was used to build the numerical model of the sample; the fibre bridging was modeled and the bridging stress was calculated. The delamination growth behavior can be predicted based on the energy release rate. This numerical method considered both damage modes (fatigue and delamination) at the same time.
