Influence of Embedded Gap and Overlap Fiber Placement Defects on Interlaminar Properties of High Performance Composites

Automated fiber placement (AFP), once limited to aerospace, is gaining acceptance and offers great potential for marine structures. This paper describes the influence of manufacturing defects, gaps, and overlaps, on the out-of-plane properties of carbon/epoxy composites manufactured by AFP. Apparent...
