The tensile properties of fiber metal laminates were examined at temperatures ranging from 30 °C to 180 °C in this paper through the integration of numerical simulation techniques, experimental measurements, and digital image correlation techniques. The laminates were initially modeled using finite elements, and the failure behavior of porous basalt-fiber-reinforced aluminum alloy plates was numerically simulated. Consequently, metal fiber laminate stress-strain responses were varied by numerous tensile experiments conducted at varying temperatures. Simultaneously, a scanning electron microscope was used to scan a porous basalt-fiber-reinforced aluminum alloy laminate at different temperatures to determine the tensile mechanical behavior and micro-damage morphology. Lastly, the laminate's dynamic response to the tensile process was observed through digital image correlation technology. The stress distribution was determined to be concentrated around circular openings through analysis. The strain distribution graph exhibited a "band" shape as the number of perforations increased. The findings indicate that fiber metal laminates lose tensile strength as temperatures increase. The ultimate tensile strength of the laminate decreases as the number of perforations increases at the same temperature. Complex damage mechanisms, including matrix debonding, fiber withdrawal, and matrix fracture, can be captured through scanning electron microscopy at varying temperatures. The tensile behavior and damage mechanisms of laminates with hole-containing structures under thermal conditions are examined, and the results can be used to inform the design and utilization of laminate structures.
