Failure modes of Failure mechanisms Comments<br />

this example<br />

Fracture Fibre failure Is assumed to cause fracture. Shall always be checked.<br />

(local/global) Matrix cracking Causes leakage if no liner is present, but no fracture.<br />

Matrix crack growth Not critical since matrix cracking is not critical.<br />

Delamination Not critical because no compressive in-plane stresses are present (no danger<br />

of buckling) and no through thickness tensile stresses (thin shell) appear.<br />

Yielding<br />

Not relevant<br />

Buckling<br />

Not relevant since no compressive and/or significant in-plane shear loads are<br />

present.<br />

Unacceptably large No requirements to displacements or deformations are formulated.<br />

displacement<br />

Stress rupture Effect shall be checked for all critical failure mechanisms mentioned above.<br />

Fatigue<br />

In this case it is only fibre failure.<br />

Impact<br />

Shall be checked<br />

Wear<br />

Not relevant in this application<br />

Fire<br />

Not relevant in this application<br />

Explosive<br />

decompression<br />

Shall be checked<br />

Chemical<br />

Shall be checked<br />

decomposition<br />

Leakage Fibre failure Shall be checked.<br />

Matrix cracking Check this for vessel without liner. Acceptable for vessel with liner.<br />

Matrix crack growth If data exist that show leakage will only occur after a certain crack density has<br />

been reached, this failure mechanism may be used instead of simple matrix<br />

cracking. In this example we use first matrix cracking as a conservative leak<br />

condition.<br />

Delamination Not critical if liner is present. For vessel without liner matrix cracking<br />

happens prior to delamination. Since we check for matrix cracking we do not<br />

need to consider delamination.<br />

Yielding<br />

Not relevant for the laminate.<br />

Buckling<br />

Not relevant. See the comments for fracture.<br />

Unacceptably large<br />

displacement<br />

Displacement should be limited to prevent liner failure for gas vessel. No<br />

restriction for water vessel without liner.<br />

Stress rupture Fibre failure: Same as for fracture. Matrix cracking – vessel with liner: Not<br />

Fatigue<br />

relevant. Matrix cracking – vessel without liner: Check.<br />

Impact<br />

Shall be checked<br />

Wear<br />

Not relevant in this application<br />

Fire<br />

Not relevant in this application<br />

Explosive<br />

decompression<br />

Shall be checked<br />

Chemical<br />

Shall be checked<br />

decomposition<br />

Impact Impact Shall be checked<br />

Excessive<br />

deformation<br />

Unacceptably large<br />

displacement<br />

Shall be checked for gas vessel to ensure that liner does not yield.<br />

3.1.3 Based on these tables we shall check the following failure mechanisms:<br />

— fibre failure:<br />

— short-term static<br />

— long-term static<br />

— long-term fatigue<br />

— matrix cracking (for vessel without liner):<br />

— short term static<br />

— long-term static<br />

— long-term fatigue<br />
