Present article demonstrates the virtual certification methodology of composite laminates according to ASTMD7136 (low-velocity impact, LVI) and ASTM D7137 (compression after impact, CAI). Intraply behavior is described using modified mesomodel. Interply behavior is captured using cohesive elements. Intraply and interply models are implemented in commercial finite element (FE) software LS-Dyna.Unidirectional AS4/8552 material is considered in the present study. Ply and interface material properties are measured in the present work. The adopted test campaign consists of tension tests, curved beam bend, short beam shear, double cantilever and end-notch flexure tests. The LVI and CAI studies on quasi-isotropic laminates with ply scaling effects are studied. Each laminate is subjected to three levels of impact energies.Present FE models with material-aligned mesh are able to capture the diagonal matrix splits at the back face, impact duration, peak forces, delamination zones and compressive residual strengths accurately in comparison with tests.
