Abstract

Summary The research here presented shows the numerical results for progressive failure of stiffened composite panels into the post-buckling field. In particular, a strength reduction procedure is implemented in the commercial finite element code ABAQUS where the stiffness properties of the material are removed in the failed areas. The results show a good correlation with experimental data obtained from a post-buckling test of a stiffened panel with a notch, that can be found in literature.
