A cycle-by-cycle fatigue damage analysis of biaxial composite structures utilizing acoustic emission

In the present work, a fatigue damage analysis of biaxial Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) specimens loaded at two different stress levels and a fatigue ratio, R=0.1, was performed. A cycle-by-cycle approach was used, utilizing results from Acoustic Emission (AE) measurements. The aim was to investigate the influence of the applied...
