remaining laminas increase and the laminate stiffness is reduced;however,the laminate may not fail immediately.Furthermore,the failed lamina may not cease to carry its share of load in all directions. 6.1.2.1 Consequence of Lamina Failure Several methods have been proposed to account for the failed lamina and the subsequent behavior of the laminate [5].Among them are the following: Total discount method:In this method,zero stiffness and strength are assigned to the failed lamina in all directions. Limited discount method:In this method,zero stiffness and strength are assigned to the failed lamina for the transverse and shear modes if the lamina failure is in the matrix material.If the lamina fails by fiber rupture,the total discount method is adopted. Residual property method:In this method,residual strength and stiffness are assigned to the failed lamina.
