In this paper, we consider the transient thermal-mechanical stress ploblem of cracked woven glass-epoxy laminates with temperature-dependent properties. The woven composite is suddenly cooled at the surfaces. The composite material in generalized plane strain is assumed. Finite element method is used to study the influence of weave curvature and crack formation on the thermal shock behavior of G-10CR glass-epoxy laminates at low temperatures. Numerical results on the transient temperature and thermal-mechanical stress distributions are obtained and are presented in a graphical form.
