Abstract: It is evident that laminated reinforced composite are successfully prolonging the life of composites compared to particle and fiber type of reinforced composites method. The question on how these laminated composites take up the fatigue loading is crucial in order to give sound confident to industry replacing their design from metal to composites based. The lack of confident and uncertainties’ life of composites components become an issue to designer to shift from metal based to composites based especially when the design required to be done in short time. This review gives a clear picture the state of fatigue life modelling and the life prediction of laminated composites structures. The types of model are favorable when it is accurate, simple and required less input parameters. In the end, this review gives clear pictures on mechanism that involve and the fundamental of formula that available at present.
