In this study, the accuracy of characteristic length method on the prediction of failure strength and failure mode using different failure criteria was investigated. The stresses required for evaluating the joints were computed from stress functions obtained from displacement expressions that satisfy boundary conditions of the hole. The available experimental data for joint strength in literature were compared with the predicted failure loads and modes of failure for different composite pinned joints. No single failure criterion utilized to evaluate the failure gave a universally best fit across the three joints evaluated. However, the accuracy of characterizing the joints failure varies with joint laminate and choice of failure criterions.展开更多
