Abstract
The basic aspects of a material mesomodel dedicated to composite laminates and capable of simulating complete fracture phenomena are discussed. Attent ion is focused herein on damage computation and, in particular, on the desc ription of localisation phenomena. Both quasi-static and dynamic loadings a re considered.
