Abstract: This paper studies the ultimate strength and progressive damage behavior of imperfect composite laminated plates under end-shortening strain using the semi-analytical finite strip method (FSM). Plates with various thicknesses and boundary conditions are perused. First-order shear deformation theory with the assumption of large deflections is considered. To analyze the failure in the laminates, the Hashin and Rotem failure criterion is used, and once the failure occurs, the material properties decrease instantaneously. Three different scenarios have been considered to apply material properties degradation in the failed ply: the complete ply degradation scenario, the strip degradation scenario (SDS), and the strip region degradation scenario. In the first scenario, the properties of the entire ply are degraded instantaneously after predicting the failure. In contrast, in the SDS, the reduction of material properties occurs only in the strip where the failure has occurred. In the third scenario, in order to increase the accuracy of damage analysis, each strip is divided into three regions, and material properties are degraded in the strip's region where the failure has happened. A convergence study is performed with regard to both the number of terms of displacement fields along the strip and the number of strips used across the laminates. To validate the damage responses, the results obtained by the proposed method have been compared with the finite element method (FEM) and available results in the literature. The introduced approach overcomes the limitations of previous methods, such as Ritz, in applying different boundary conditions and is much more suitable than the FEM in terms of simplicity of implementation and computational time.
