To meet the aviation and aerospace requirements for detachability and load-carrying capacity, a novel connecting structure — a carbon-fiber-filament-wound composite tube with grooved metal inserts has been developed. The tensile behavior of the structure was investigated experimentally and by the finite-element method. The finite-element method was used to simulate the damage process. The failure load of the structure was found to be 37% higher than that of an ordinary bonded tube without grooved metal inserts. A stress analysis showed that the structural failure was not caused by the failure of adhesive, but was determined by the tensile strength of the ±30° wound layers and the shear strength of interlayer
