Abstract

Concerning the compressive strength of fiber composites, the kink band mechanism is combined with a recently derived stress-based, matrix-controlled failure criterion. Resulting predictions are given for the load level and kink band inclination angle at kink formation. The results are in accordance with other widely different approaches, providing some corroboration for this new failure criterion.
