Minimum list of Failure Mechanisms Comments<br />

Failure Modes<br />

Fibre Failure<br />

Is assumed to cause leakage. Shall always be checked.<br />

Matrix Cracking<br />

Is assumed to cause leakage unless a liner or other barrier can keep the<br />

fluid out of the laminate.<br />

Matrix Crack Growth If data exist that show leakage will only occur after a certain crack<br />

density has been reached, this failure mechanism may be used instead<br />

of simple matrix cracking. No design criterion is given in this<br />

document.<br />

Delamination<br />

May cause leakage, especially if it causes the violation of a<br />

displacement requirement.<br />

Yielding<br />

May cause leakage.<br />

Buckling<br />

May cause leakage.<br />

Unacceptably large May cause leakage.<br />

Leakage displacement<br />

Sandwich core failure May cause leakage<br />

Sandwich core yield May cause leakage<br />

Sandwich buckling May cause leakage<br />

Stress Rupture<br />

Fatigue<br />

Impact<br />

Wear<br />

Fire<br />

Explosive Decompression<br />

Effects shall be checked for all failure mechanisms mentioned above.<br />

Special failure mechanisms that may lead to leakage.<br />

Chemical decomposition /<br />

galvanic corrosion<br />

Buckling<br />

Buckling (local or<br />

global)<br />

Blast/Burst<br />

Impact<br />

Excessive<br />

deformation,<br />

Ovalisation,<br />

Excessive<br />

displacement<br />

Wear<br />

2 Design criteria - general approach<br />

2.1 General<br />

Sandwich buckling<br />

Unacceptably large<br />

displacement<br />

Impact<br />

Unacceptably large<br />

displacement<br />

Wear<br />

Chemical decomposition /<br />

galvanic corrosion<br />

Buckling is treated as a failure mode and failure mechanism in this<br />

standard.<br />

Buckling needs special analysis methods and special design criteria.<br />

The effect of other failure mechanisms, such as delamination and<br />

matrix cracking, on buckling shall be considered carefully.<br />

Buckling may lead to violation of displacement requirements.<br />

Consider same failure mechanisms as for fracture.<br />

Treated as a failure mode and failure mechanism in this standard.<br />

2.1.1 A design criterion shall be assigned to each relevant mechanism of failure.<br />

2.1.2 Design criteria for typical mechanisms of failure and materials are described in the following chapters.<br />

2.1.3 If no design criterion is known for a relevant mechanism of failure the following alternative options may<br />

be used:<br />

— it may be possible to perform a component test that evaluates the relevant design criteria without the need<br />

of a detailed knowledge of the failure mechanisms. This should be documented. See Sec.10<br />

— a design criterion may be proposed. It should be documented by experiments and/or experience that the<br />

proposed design criterion is applicable for the component. Details are given under [19].<br />

2.1.4 A modelling uncertainty shall be assigned to each design criterion and/or the strength parameters used<br />

in it. A modelling uncertainty factor is included in the design criteria equations proposed in this standard.<br />
