Effect of hybridization of continuous and discontinuous tape composites on stiffness and strength
A computational analysis
Numerical investigations were conducted to explore the mechanical response of hybrid layered continuous–discontinuous tape composites focusing on damage initiation and ultimate strength under both tensile and bending loads. These composites combine layers of continuous unidirecti
...
Chopped Tape Thermoplastic Composites (CTTCs) offer high formability and performance for complex-shaped components in the aerospace and automotive industries. However, the mesoscopic discontinuity leads to spatial variabilities and correspondingly high scatter in the elastic prop
...
Discontinuous fiber composites (DFC) have properties such as notch insensitivity, short processing times, and large shaping freedom [1-3]. However, the mechanical behavior of ROT composites is less predictable compared to continuous fiber composites due to the mesoscopic heteroge

Discontinuous tape composites have considerable attention due to their high formability and tailorable structures. Despite their advantages, this discontinuity leads to complex structures and makes it difficult to predict their mechanical properties. On the other hand, they have
