On One Two-Level Model in the Mesomechanics of Compression Fracture of Cracked Composites

The article is devoted to a two-level model in the mesomechanics of compression fracture of composites with cracks. Consideration is given to fiber-laminated panels with an opening compressed along the fibers so that two cracks propagate from the opening edge in a direction perpendicular to the loading axis. The previous results obtained by the author in the three-dimensional theory of stability of deformable bodies and nonclassical fracture mechanics are used to create the above-mentioned two-level model
