Abstract

This paper investigates the numerical modelling and analysis of interface tractions in a tri-material scarf joint. The modelling procedure of the Abaqus scarf joint model, which includes zero thickness interface elements is detailed. The model is used to perform a study of an overlaminated scarf joint consisting of a carbon fibre-reinforced polymer core and glass fibre-reinforced polymer skin. Interface tractions and damage along the scarf interface are evaluated to examine the fracture process.
