A method is presented for studying fibre damage in continuous fibre reinforced composites. It is based on contrasting the transmission of light through intact translucent fibres with the light through fractured or dead-ended fibres. The method is applied i ...
A process has been developed where multiple yarns of commingled glass and polypropylene are heated and placed to a desired geometry. The placed unidirectional (UD) tow is then encapsulated by over-moulding with glass mat thermoplastics (GMTs). The effects ...
A Green's function method (GFM) for simulating fiber damage evolution and tensile strength in fiber-reinforced composites is compared in detail to the predictions of the standard shear-lag model (SLM) widely used in the literature. The GFM extracts the in- ...
The invention is concerned with an integrated process for the manufacture of polymer and/or composite products, comprising the integration of processing operations to achieve a plurality of material conversion steps, such as impregnation, consolidation and ...
The fast-fracture and stress-rupture of a crossply ceramic-matrix composite with a matrix through-crack are examined numerically to assess the importance of fiber architecture and the associated stress concentrations at the 0/90 ply interface on failure. F ...
The mechanical properties of continuous fibre reinforced metals (CFRMs) are known to be very sensitive to the selection and composition of the metallic matrix; for aluminium based CFRMs, commercial alloys are not suitable for this purpose. In the present s ...
The present paper addresses the correlation between mechanical damage and the change in electrical resistance of CFRP under tensile loading. A linear relation between the strain and the electrical resistance of single carbon fibers was obtained experimenta ...
A multiscale approach to composite failure, in which detailed information on small-scale micromechanics is incorporated approximately yet accurately into larger-scale models capable of simulating extensive damage evolution and ultimate failure, is applied ...

The stress transfer from broken to unbroken fibers in fiber-reinforced polymer-matrix (PMC) and aluminum-matrix (AMC) composites is studied using a detailed 3D finite element model (FEM) and using the standard shear-lag model (SLM). The stress transfer pre ...
