forming FMLs

What are the issues in forming (simple curvature) laminates of composite-metal, e.g. fibre-metal laminates used in aircraft structures like Glare, Arall.

- in terms of material properties such as Modulus, tensile strength, shear properties, etc

and how is failure defined in these cases ?
