Abstract

The failure modes and tensile strength of composite laminated plate containing a hole are studied in the present work, and the influences of hole's diameter and shape on the tensile strength of laminated plate are investigated. The strengths of laminated plates with circle, square and diamond holes are measured experimentally. A progressive failure model (PFM) is developed with finite element software ABAQUS through the subroutine USDFLD, the failure modes and tensile strength of laminated plates are simulated by this PFM. The results show that the simulated strengths agree well with the measured ones, and the PFM in the present work can effectively predict the tensile strength of laminated plates with holes.
