Evaluation of Interlaminar Stresses in Composite Laminates with a Bolt-Filled Hole Using a Linear Elastic Traction-Separation Description
Determination of the local interlaminar stress distribution in a laminate with a bolt-filled hole is helpful for optimal bolted joint design, due to the three-dimensional (3D) nature of the stress field remtavares.com near the bolt hole.A new interlaminar stress distribution phenomenon induced by the bolt-head and clamp-up load, which occurs in a f
