Abstract
To develop design rules for dynamically loaded composite structures, extensive static and cyclic tension/compression-torsion tests were carried out on carbon-fibre-reinforced composites, in which especially the important influence of multiaxial loading conditions on their fatigue behaviour was investigated. Physically based failure criteria for static loadings are modified for multiaxial cyclic loadings, and a good agreement with experiments is achieved.
