Dear all,
I have a hybrid bolted joint with CBEAM fastener idealization. The aim is to extract fastener bearing loads as well as flows.
What is the procedure?
Are there any tools which can automate this process?
Thank you in advance
Thank you all for your feedback.
From my understanding the term 'unfolding'(not frequently used) describes composite curved angle delamination onset as a result of through thickness stresses. I am currently researching in order to get a better understanding of this phenomenon.

Compositepro, thank you for your reply.
I was reviewing a composite design allowables document and came up with F33t, F33c & F13 values for “Unfolding”. Are these values then the max allowed for interlaminar tension, compression & shear respectively to prevent “delamination”?
