Keywords: carbon fibre, pullout, residual stress, cohesive zone model

This paper investigated the effect of residual thermal stresses on carbon fibre pullout by using cohesive zone modelling. The influence of parameters involved in the fibre pullout was investigated by using FE method. The distribution of residual thermal stresses along the interface was discussed by cases studies and parametric study.
