The Linear Matching Method applied to composite materials: A micromechanical approach

The paper considers a Direct Method for the evaluation of the maximum load corresponding to pre-assigned limits on the non-linear behaviour of the matrix and fibres in a laminate structure. This is achieved by combining a consistent micro-macro model for linear behaviour with an extension of the Lin...
