A new method of creating in-plane combined tension-shear stress states using only tensile loading is proposed. Thin-ply angle-ply carbon/epoxy laminates are sandwiched between unidirectional glass layers to eliminate any stress concentration around the samples ends and grippin ...
A sensor for visualizing the fatigue load cycles was designed, fabricated, and tested. The sensor is made of a glass/carbon hybrid composite and utilizes the delamination length at the glass/carbon interface as an indicator for fatigue cycles. Appropriate design parameters wer ...
This paper introduces novel structural health monitoring (SHM) sensors to improve the detection of low energy impact damage in laminated composites. The sensor is a purposely designed thin-ply hybrid composite, composed of a layer of unidirectional S-glass/epoxy and another la ...
This paper investigates the fatigue behaviour of pseudo-ductile Quasi-Isotropic (QI) interlayer hybrids with un-notched and open-hole configurations. Two different types of QI pseudo-ductile hybrids were evaluated; HighC, with carbon to glass thickness ratio of 0.29, that is m ...
