The document summarizes a study that analyzed the structural properties of composite T-joints with different cut-out shapes using finite element analysis and Tsai-Hill failure criteria. A composite T-joint model was created and subjected to pulling, shear, and bending loads. Models with different cut-out shapes but the same total cut-out area were also analyzed under the same loads. Results found that for transverse pulling loads, a vertical ellipse cut-out shape performed best with no failure, while other shapes showed failure. For shear and bending loads, different cut-out shapes performed best. The best overall shape was selected based on composite performance under all three loading conditions.
