Monitoring Damage Propagation in Glass Fiber Composites Using Carbon Nanofibers

In this work, we report the potential use of novel carbon nanofibers (CNFs), dispersed during fabrication of glass fiber composites to monitor damage propagation under static loading. The use of CNFs enables a transformation of the typically non-conductive glass fiber composites into new fiber compo...
