Abstract

Delamination of a composite may occur as a result of high-speed impact under the action of shock-wave unloading. Delamination could grow further under operation with the subsequent composite destruction. This paper presents analytical expressions for values characterizing the delamination critical loss of stability and describing their non-linear delaminating deformation resulting from the impact. Elastic characteristics of the thin-walled delamination of a multilayer package, elastic characteristics of separate layers included in it depending on the shear modulus, elastic moduli, Poisson ratio, thickness, and orientation angle of fibers of the unidirectional layer were determined. A technique for numerical simulation and calculation of the structural elements made of layered composite materials with allowable defects such as delamination was developed in the ANSYS Mechanical system to solve problems of the plates’ supercritical behavior.
