Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate a recently developed analytical model [1] which determines the interlaminar stress distributions around a circular hole in symmetric composite laminates under in-plane tensile loading. For this purpose, a three-dimensional finite element analysis is performed and the stress distributions for symmetric cross-ply laminates are presented This work is relevant to the prediction of delamination onset load and location around the discontinuity.
