Numerical analysis of the delamination in CFRP laminates: VCCT and XFEM assessment
This document develops a critical analysis of the capabilities offered by well-known numerical approaches such as eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM) and Virtual Crack Closure Technique (VCCT) to predict delamination in composite materials. Despite several computational analyses having been perfor...
