TLDR
In this article, thermal stresses were built-up in glass fiber-reinforced epoxy composites by upthermal shock cycles (negative to positive temperature exposure) for different durations and also by downthermal heat cycles (positive to negative temperature exposure).About:

Temperature effect during humid ageing on interfaces of glass and carbon fibers reinforced epoxy composites.
TL;DR: An attempt has been made here to evaluate the deleterious effect of temperature on shear strength of carbon/epoxy and glass/ep oxygen composites during hygrothermal conditionings and the effectiveness of the relaxation process in the nullification of environmentally-induced damage in the composites.

Environmental effects on fibre reinforced polymeric composites: Evolving reasons and remarks on interfacial strength and stability
TL;DR: The present review has emphasized the need of complying scattered as well as limited literature on this front, and has focused on creating the urgency to highlight the importance of judicious uses of these materials with minimum safety factors with an aim to achieving lighter weight in enhancing specific properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Durability and integrity studies of environmentally conditioned interfaces in fibrous polymeric composites: critical concepts and comments.
TL;DR: The reduced glass transition temperature of the interphase may induce low modulus area, which subsequently affects fracture toughness and local stresses of the composite, which result in high fracture toughness at ambient temperatures, but significantly reduced performance at high temperatures.

Environmental damage and degradation of FRP composites: A review report
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of different damage/degradations that may be caused to the fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) composite on its exposure to various environmental conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Changing Environment and Loading Speed on Mechanical Behavior of FRP Composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of changing hygrothermal conditioning cycles (either by changing relative humidity (RH) and keeping the temperature constant, or by changing the temperature while RH the same is maintained) on moisture gain/loss kinetics and on interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) of varied weight fraction were investigated.

Introduction To Composite Materials
TL;DR: The combination of materials to form a new material system with enhanced material properties is a well documented historical fact as discussed by the authors, which is why many artisans from the Mediterranean and Far East used a form of composite technology in molding art works which were fabricated by layering cut paper in various sizes for producing desired shapes and contours.

Crack deflection processes—I. Theory
TL;DR: In this article, a fracture mechanics approach has been used to predict fracture toughness increases due to crack deflection around second phase particles, based on a determination of the initial tilt and the maximum twist of the crack front between particles.

A microbond method for determination of the shear strength of a fiber/resin interface
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the shear strength of a fiber-reinforced composite by measuring the force needed to pull a single fiber axially out of the solid matrix.
