Abaqus Tutorial 11b: Ply Failure

In this tutorial, you will modify a structural model of a stiffened panel to define the material properties including the ply failure parameters. You will then perform a static analysis of a bending test and visualize the simulation of the damage propagation with Abaqus/Viewer. 

You will learn how to:

• Define material properties
• Define failure criteria
• Use a damage propagation model
