Elastic-plastic stress analysis of cracked fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) was conducted by the finite element method. The inhomogeneous FRP was modeled as a two-dimensional laminated structure composed of elastic-perfectly plastic matrix material, orthotropic elastic fiber and homogeneous FRP. The size of the plastic zone near the tip of a mode II matrix crack was determined for an inhomogeneous composite and an unreinforced matrix material. Under the same value of the matrix stress intensity factor, K_<IIm> the length and the height of the crack-tip plastic zone obtained for an inhomogeneous composite are equal to those obtained for an unreinforced matrix material in the range of K_<IIm>≤0.2σ_Y√<πd_m> where σ_Y is the yield stress of the matrix material and d_m is the height of the matrix phase in the inhomogeneous FRP. On the other hand, for large K_<IIm> value, the plastic zone length obtained for an inhomogeneous FRP is larger than that for an unreinforced matrix material, but the plastic zone height is smaller. A simple method is proposed to estimate the length and the height of the plastic zone ahead of the tip of a mode II crack from the elastic stress distribution in the inhomogeneous FRP.
