A constitutive model for describing the inelastic deformation of unidirectional and symmetric angle-ply CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) laminates is developed. The kinematic hardening creep flow law of Malinin and Khadjinsky and the evolution equation of Armstrong and Frederick are extended to describe the creep deformation of anisotropic materials. In order to express anisotropic hardening, back stress taking account of anisotropic inelastic strain sensitivity is incorporated into the creep constitutive equation. Then, the resulting model is applied to analyze the time-dependent inelastic deformation of symmetric angle-ply laminates. Comparison between the prediction and the experimental observation shows that the present model can describe well the time-dependent inelastic behavior under different loadings.
