The fracture strength of notched continuous fiber-reinforced composite laminates with arbitrary lamination geometry has been predicted by focusing on the interlaminar crack extension around notches. An equation was first derived which evaluated the energy release rate at a point on the interlaminar crack front. Then, under the condition of constant energy release rate, a numerical simulation was carried out of the extension behavior of the delaminated zone. Taking account of its interaction with intralaminar cracks and the probabilistic failure process of fibers inside the delaminated zone, the simulated fracture behavior of laminates was found to be in good agreement with experimental results. These simulation results lead to a fracture-strength, prediction for laminates which is proved to be sufficiently precise over a wide-ranging variety of lamination geometries.
