Abstract
Abstract: An experimental test series was carried out to determine input parameters for a well‐known continuum damage mechanics elementary ply plasticity model. A full suite of data was obtained for a carbon fibre and an S2‐glass fibre‐reinforced composite material, both currently used in the aerospace industry. Models were implemented using the experimentally determined input parameters and predictions for in‐plane behaviour found good agreement with experiments for both material systems. In addition, model predictions for cyclic loading accurately captured reload moduli and plastic strain magnitude.
