Dynamic tensile properties of carbon fiber composite based on thermoplastic epoxy resin loaded in matrix-dominant directions

Experimental investigation of the failure envelope of unidirectional carbon-epoxy composite under high strain rate transverse and off-axis tensile loading

“…The dynamic tensile properties of carbon fibre composites with thermoset and thermoplastic matrices in matrix-dominant directions have also been investigated in similar studies by Taniguchi et al [2,3]. In addition, results from single off-axis and/or transverse tension tests under high strain rates have been published by several authors [4][5][6][7][8].…”

Progressive damage and failure strength of notched woven fabric composites under axial loading with varying strain rates

“…The effect of strain rate on composite material behaviors has been also investigated extensively. Some studies examined the strain rate effects on tensile properties of composites [15][16][17]. The experimental results showed that the tensile strength of the composite increased linearly with the strain rate as the fiber orientation angles became higher.…”

Effects of fibre orientation and content on the mechanical, dynamic mechanical and thermal expansion properties of multi-layered glass/carbon fibre-reinforced polymer composites

“…This enabled a wide-range of engineering applications ranging from aerospace to marine, civil engineering to transport, sporting goods to automotive industry, etc. [13][14][15][16].…”
