The objective of this paper is to analyze fiber/matrix debond crack growth in
unidirectional (UD) composites during high stress cyclic tension-tension loading. High stress
loading means that fiber breaks and consecutive fiber/matrix interface debond growth are
expected. Fracture mechanics concepts are applied to analyze damage evolution
