Abstract
In this paper, the theoretical background for the failure analysis of fibre-reinforced composites under variable repeated loads in the framework of direct methods is presented. It is based on a local shakedown analysis in a representative volume element of the composite and the use of averaging techniques to study the influence of each component (matrix, fibre and interface) on the macroscopic response of such composite.
