Abstract
The transverse matrix cracking in the 90° plies, the nonlinearity of the 0° plies and the slip at the 0°/90° ply interface of cross-ply laminated ceramic matrix composites were studied by a comprehensive extended shear-lag type analysis. Transverse crack evolution was predicted using a fracture criterion based on available energy for cracking of the 90° plies, while the growth of slip zones at the 0°/90° interface was based on a shear strength criterion. The modified shear-lag approach predicted the stress-strain behavior and damage progression in the cross-ply laminate.
