Composite shell fracture is now separable into distinct fibre, inter-fibre, and interaction mechanisms, unlocking learned constitutive models and revealing curvature-driven through-thickness asymmetry.

Structural simulations can now rigorously bound worst-case material behavior by considering entire sets of admissible constitutive laws, revealing that the most critical experimental tests for reducing uncertainty may not be intuitive.
