Journal ArticleDOI
Failure mechanisms and damage evolution of laminated composites under compression after impact (CAI): Experimental and numerical study
X.C. Sun,Stephen R. Hallett +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the key driving mechanisms and damage evolution of the compressive failure of laminated composites containing BVID using compression after impact and indentation (CAI) tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Barely visible impact damage in scaled composite laminates: Experiments and numerical simulations
X.C. Sun,Stephen R. Hallett +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of size and complexity of composite structures on the formation of low-velocity impact damage via experimental tests and numerical modeling is investigated via simulation and simulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interaction of inter- and intralaminar damage in scaled quasi-static indentation tests: Part 2 - Numerical Simulation
TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical study of the global damage behavior and local response of four scaled Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) laminates under quasi-static transverse loading is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interaction of inter- and intralaminar damage in scaled quasi-static indentation tests: Part 1 – Experiments
TL;DR: In this paper, a unique series of scaled indentation tests are performed on quasi-isotropic composite plates, and a detailed assessment of the damage evolution is carried out through non-destructive techniques, including ultrasonic C-scan and X-ray computed tomography (CT).
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of low velocity impact modelling techniques for thermoplastic and thermoset polymer composites
TL;DR: In this paper, experimental and numerical studies of low-velocity impact damage for thermoplastic (IM7/PEEK) and thermoset (IMS65/MTM) carbon fibre reinforced composites were made.
