Fiber-reinforced polymer composites, such as carbon-epoxy composites, are found to exhibit non-linear behavior when mechanically loaded in the transverse and shear directions. Experimental studies suggest that the non-linear behavior is due to two mechanisms: (i) damage in the matrix in the form of...
