A simulation method for fatigue-driven delamination in layered structures involving non-negligible fracture process zones and arbitrarily shaped crack fronts

, 2019
Most of the existing methods for fatigue-driven delamination are limited to two-dimensional (2D) applications or their predictive capabilities have not been validated in three-dimensional (3D) problems.
