Simulation of fracture in fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP) and hybrid composites is a challenging task. This paper investigates the potential of combining the extended finite element method (xFEM) and cohesive zone method (CZM), available through LS-DYNA commercial finite element software, for effectively modeling delamination buckling and crack propagation in fiber metal laminates (FML). The investigation includes modeling the response of the standard double cantilever beam test specimen, and delamination-buckling of a 3D-FML under axial impact loading. It is shown that the adopted approach could effectively simulate the complex state of crack propagation in such materials, which involves crack propagation within the adhesive layer along the interface, and its diversion from one interface to the other. The corroboration of the numerical predictions and actual experimental observations is also demonstrated. In addition, the limitations of these numerical methodologies are discussed.

Materials having low density combined with superior strength are gaining demand in the field of automobiles, aeronautical and military appliances. Fiber Metal Laminates (FML) is becoming the material of choice for the above mentioned applications because of the ability to tailor it to meet the demands of the end applications. This paper throws light on the commercially available for of FMLs, its production methods, property enhancement and diverse applications. As such Carbon fibre reinforced composite are preferred for making automobile bonnets and fuselage in military aircraft due to the superior strength to weight ratio. On the other hand glass fiber reinforced composite materials are used to manufacture railway locomotive body panels due to the high tensile strength and impact strength. This paper can be used as reference for budding engineers who want to gain first-hand knowledge on FMLs.

Fiber Metal laminates (FML) have made its place in the prominence of the materials development whereby the study of its mechanical, physical, chemical characterization of the property of the material behavior have been studies and reported by various intellects. This paper delivers a scope of cryogenic treatment and the effect of the Fiber Metal laminates towards its property change and dialect behavior towards the subject of the material to the adverse cooling temperature. Every material holds a particular energy by its stances to the heat of addition which results due cause of the material heat absorption and quantum movement of the particles resulting in the energy due cause of molecular randomness.
