PART II MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR OF LAMINATED MATERIALS We have introduced in the previous part the anisotropic properties of composite materials from a qualitative point of view,'and we have indicated the characteristic elastic constants for the behavior of an anisotropic layer in its plane. We have also mentioned the relations that allow one to predict the mechanical behavior of a fiber/matrix combination from the properties of the individual constituents.2In Chapter 5,3 we have also given the elements necessary for the sizing of the laminates made of carbon/epoxy,Kevlar/epoxy,and glass/epoxy, in terms of strength and deformation. This second part is dedicated to the justification and application of these properties and results.It requires a detailed study of the behavior of anisotropic composite layers and of the stacking that makes up the laminate.It is useful to note that the basics of the mechanics of continuous media-namely,the state of stress and strain at a point-already described in great details in many texts on mechanics of materials,are supposed to be known.
