Damage Mechanism and Life Prediction of Graphite/Epoxy Composites

Source

This paper describes observation of fatigue damage mechanism in composites subjected to compression dominated fatigue loading, formulation of a damageindicating parameter based on the intralaminar microcracking of the resin, and its application in conjunction with a linear fatigue damage model to predict spectrum life of graphite/epoxy composite laminates.
