Multiscale modeling of tensile fracture in fiber reinforced composites

Intralaminar fiber-matrix fracture, also known as splitting, is encountered frequently during the tensile failure of fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites (FRPMCs). The prediction of this failure mode and its influence on a macroscopically homogenized model brings associated challenges in numer...
