A micro-mechanics model for in-situ compression strength of fiber composite laminates
Article Abstract:
A mathematical model for compressive failure in fiber composite laminates is given. The model is used to analyze the stability of a single fiber subjected to compression and distributed loads that occur when the fiber interacts with the matrix. The model could estimate the failure threshold of the axial plies and the shear limit of the adjoining plies. Results obtained for the strength variance for the laminated type agree with experimental data.

Compression fatigue response for carbon fiber with conventional and toughened epoxy matrices with damage
Article Abstract:
The fatigue response of quai-isotropic laminates with carbon fiber and epoxy matrices undervarious types of compressive loadings is investigated. Experiments are conducted wherein carbon/epoxy specimens are subjected to open hole compression, compression after impact and compression fatigue after impact tests. Results show that the carbon/epoxy-reinforced specimens have better fatigue resistance than conventional brittle laminates.

In-situ compressive strength of carbon/epoxy AS4/3501-6 laminates
Article Abstract:
The effects of fiber orientation in laminates on the compression reponse of fiber-dominated, resin-based composite materials are investigated. Experiments are conducted wherein thermally-cured cylindrical specimens having different lay-ups are subjected to compressive loading using a servo-hydraulic test machine. Results indicate that the composite materials' stress strain response becomes elastic under cyclic loading.
