Current progressive damage and failure analysis (PDFA) methods were developed around thermoset material systems and their physical behavior. However, the applicability of these analysis methods has not been evaluated for use in modeling thermoplastic material systems. As part of the Hi-Rate Composite Aircraft Manufacturing (HiCAM) Project sponsored by NASA, intralaminar failure characterization was completed on a thermoplastic material system, AS4D/PEKK-FC, with off-axis tension (OAT) and off-axis compression (OAC) testing. The experiments were able to capture matrix non-linear shear behavior and the failure envelope of the material system. Two PDFA methods, LS-DYNA MAT299 and NASA’s CompDam-DGD, were then employed to simulate individual coupon behavior and simulation results were compared to published verification and validation guidelines from the CMH-17 crashworthiness working group. The results found that the two modeling methods provided suitable representation of material behavior of thermoplastics.
