“…Autoclave, out‐of‐autoclave, and hot press molding compression techniques can all be applied to produce natural fiber‐based FMLs. Vieira et al 149 prepared the sisal fiber‐reinforced epoxy metal laminates using the hand lay‐up method, followed by cold pressing at 1500 Pa. Yaghoobi et al 150 used vacuum‐assisted resin infusion to produce basalt fiber‐reinforced liquid methyl methacrylate metal laminates. Ng et al 151 employed hot press molding compression technique to manufacture pineapple leaf/glass fiber‐reinforced polypropylene hybrid FMLs.…”

“…When the density was considered, woven sisal fiber‐reinforced FMLs still showed the greatest specific mechanical properties. Vieira et al 149 made a further investigation on the impact properties of untreated and mechanical surface‐treated sisal fiber‐reinforced epoxy metal laminates with varying fiber orientations. They reported that fiber orientation at an off‐axis angle and mechanical surface treatment provided FMLs with the highest energy absorption and deflection properties.…”

The development of hybrid materials consisting of alternating layers of metal alloys and polymeric composites has revolutionized the engineering field. These metal‐composite laminates combine the merits of each individual component, forming advanced and promising structures which could be employed for structural applications. The low fatigue crack growth rate and high damage tolerance of these materials are particularly fascinating. When developing metal‐composite laminates with superb functional properties, the combination of several metal surface treatment techniques is a common practice to ensure optimum metal‐composite adhesion. Today, a new cutting‐edge manufacturing technique utilizing nano‐porous network film has been established to get rid of the massive infrastructure of conventional autoclave techniques and produce first‐rate materials. Even though various techniques can be adopted to manufacture metal‐composite laminates, the selection of the techniques is highly dependent on the nature of the polymer matrix. After the manufacture of the metal‐composite laminates, post‐stretching is considered a critical step to alleviate the unfavorable residual stress to ensure the optimum performance of these materials for long‐term service. When dealing with natural fibers, it is worth mentioning that the processing temperature should be limited to below 200°C regardless of manufacturing technique to avoid fiber degradation. Metal‐composite laminates consisting of synthetic/natural fibers are considered a viable option to offset the demerits of each kind of fibers. By incorporating fatigue‐resilient natural fibers in the laminates, it is expected that the overall fatigue resistance of the laminates can be apparently enhanced, which is in line with the initial goal of developing metal‐composite laminates.Highlights Fiber bridging offers fiber‐metal laminates with superior fatigue properties. Metal surface treatment is vital to ensure an optimum fiber‐bridging mechanism. A novel out‐of‐autoclave method can produce first‐grade fiber‐metal laminates. Post‐stretching is needed to lessen residual stress in fiber‐metal laminates. Hybrid fiber‐metal laminates are feasible for structural applications.

“…The characteristics of FMLs are excellent stiffness and strength in relation to density, high fatigue strength (Alderiesten, 2019), resistance to dynamic loads (Li et al, 2023;Vieira et al, 2022), compression (Kalfountzos et al, 2022) and stretching (Sun et al, 2023). In addition, they are characterized by high resistance to environmental conditions including corrosion.…”

The widespread use of composite materials in the construction of machines encourages to better understand their properties and the impact of various external factors on these properties. Fibre metal laminates (FMLs) consist of alternating layers of metal and a polymer matrix laminate reinforced with continuous fibres. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of cyclical temperature changes and thermal shocks (heating the sample to a high temperature in a short time) on the strength properties of FMLs from AW-1050A aluminium sheet, glass fibre fabric and carbon fibre fabric. The research concerns the determination of how cyclical temperature changes affect the tensile strengths properties of FMLs. The results indicate a small effect of the cycles on the tensile strength of the composites. The composites with glass fibre reinforced laminate also showed high resistance to delamination, moreover, the samples did not delaminate even after they were broken. The carbon fibre reinforced laminate composites showed a tendency to delaminate after heat treatment.

This study presents an experimental investigation on the low-velocity impact response of three-dimensional integrated woven spacer sandwich composites made of high-performance glass fiber reinforced fabric and epoxy resin. 3D integrated woven spacer sandwich composites with five different specifications were produced using a hand lay-up process and tested under low-velocity impact with energies of 5 J, 10 J, and 15 J. The results revealed that the core pile’s heights and diverse impact energies significantly affect the stiffness and energy absorption capacity. There is no significant influence of face sheet thickness on impact response. Moreover, the damage morphologies of 3D integrated woven spacer sandwich composites under different impact energies were analyzed by simple visualization of the specimen. Different damage and failure mechanisms were observed, including barely visible damage, visible damage, and clearly visible damage. Moreover, it was noticed that the damage of 3D integrated woven spacer sandwich composites samples only constraints to the impacted area and does not affect the integrity of the samples.
