Descriptif : Composite materials are becoming increasingly important in the aerospace, sport, automotive and transportation sectors. Their application allows not only the improvement of mechanical performance of the structures with regard to its weight, but also the integration of functions in structures. In service, these structures are usually subjected to cyclic mechanical stresses resulting in, generally, multi-axial stress states, causing damage such as fiber-matrix decohesion at the fiber scale, micro-voids in the ply or even in the interlaminar zone. The evolution of these damages with the applied stress cycles leads to mesoscopic and macroscopic damages such as matrix cracking, local and global delamination as well as fibre breakage. The objective of the PhD is to investigate the influence of a biaxial mechanical loading on the fatigue life of composite materials taking into account thermomechanical couplings.
