Dear Friends and Colleagues:

The Fourth International Conference on Damage Mechanics, ICDM4, will be held at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on May 15th-18th, 2023. The abstract submission will be due on December 15th, 2022. Please consider submitting an abstract using the templates (https://lnkd.in/gBEW8SKq). If you submitted an abstract in 2019, you would need to resubmit it before the deadline.
Best wishes to you all!

Professor George Voyiadjis
Conference Chair of ICDM4

Have you ever though about what make composite materials fail under cyclic loading? In the paper we collect evidence of what is fatigue damage actually is. We combine the collected clues into a conceptual model for fatigue damage in unidirectional composites. Next, we formulate a mathematical micromechanical model. The model can predict the fatigue life of a unidirectional fibre composites from the basic mechanics properties of the fibre, matrix and the fibre/matrix interface.
