Yao, L. (author), Sun, Y. (author), Zhao, M (author), Alderliesten, R.C. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)This paper aims to investigate stress ratio effect on fibre bridging significance in mode I fatigue delamination growth of composite materials. Fatigue resistance curves (R-curves) of different stress ratios are determined and compared with the quasi-static R-curve. The fatigue R-curve of a high stress ratio is similar to the quasi-static...journal article 2017

Yao, L. (author), Cui, Hao (author), Alderliesten, R.C. (author), Sun, Yi (author), Guo, Licheng (author)This paper provides an investigation on thickness effects on fibre-bridged fatigue delamination growth (FDG) in composite laminates. A modified Paris relation was employed to interpret experimental fatigue data. The results clearly demonstrated that both thickness and fibre bridging had negligible effects on FDG behaviors. Both energy...journal article 2018
