When stress is high, delaminate damage can be induced by transverse cracks. A complete parabolic shear-lag damage model containing delamination induced by transverse cracks is therefore proposed and applied to predict the stiffness reduction by transverse cracking in cross-ply laminated composite materials. The predictions of the complete parabolic shear-lag analysis model, the incomplete parabolic shear-lag analysis model, and the complete parabolic shear-lag damage model containing delamination proposed in this paper have been compared. Results show that the young’s modulus reduction values obtained by our analysis model are better agreement with the experimental ones than other models.

Calcium, Potassium and Magnesium in cotyledon cell walls were negatively correlated with cultivar susceptibility to transverse cracking of cotyledons (TVC). Plant feeding with calcium only slightly changed the percentage of TVC, and Ca, K and Mg contents in the cotyledon cell walls. Susceptibility to TVC was connected with the causes inherent in the root or shoot. Some disturbances in the displacement of Ca and K through the peduncles and K through the petioles in susceptible cultivars were noticed. These cultivars also immobilized a large quantity of Mg in sterns, and in this connection they actually had less Mg in the fruit walls, seeds, stems and blades than resistant cultivars.
