Abstract
Composites are widely used in high performance structures such as aerospace structures due to their excellent properties. The analysis of failure evolution of composite perforated structures by finite element simulation is of great significance for practical work as engineering composite structures often contain notches and voids. In this paper, the numerical simulation of failure evolution and failure modes of carbon fiber reinforced resin composite laminates with large openings was carried out. A UMAT subroutine was written based on the 3D Hashin-Ye failure criterion and progressive damage model theory. The characteristic length and viscosity coefficient were introduced into the model to reduce mesh dependency and improve computational convergence. The nonlinear shear constitutive relationship defined by the Ramberg–Osgood equation was introduced into the continuous damage degradation model. The effect of nonlinear shear on the failure evolution of laminates with different stacking sequence was studied.
