Abstract
This paper investigates the damage behavior of a reinforced composite panel under symmetrical and asymmetrical bending load. The examined reinforced composite structure is a curved CFRP panel and a co–cured CFRP omega stringer. It may be considered a typical stiffened skin section of a regional aircraft fuselage. The bending loading conditions have been simulated by means of three–point bending tests.The aim of the work is a numerical study, performed to study the influence of asymmetric bending loads on intra–laminar and inter–laminar damage, taking into account the different configurations of the panels and the different orientations of the rollers.
