P. Labossiere et N. Turkkan, FAILURE PREDICTION OF FIBER-REINFORCED MATERIALS WITH NEURAL NETWORKS, Journal of reinforced plastics and composites, 12(12), 1993, pp. 1270-1280
Neural networks can be used to predict failure of anisotropic material
s under any loading condition, provided that sufficient experimental d
ata were initially available for the system to ''learn'' the rules. An
example failure envelope for a typical fibre-reinforced material is o
btained using this method.
