The development and application of the load-stroke hysteresis technique for evaluating fatigue damage development in composite materials
A new experimental method was developed to measure the hysteresis loss during a fatigue test from the load and stroke signals of a standard servo-hydraulic materials testing system. The method was used to characterize changes in properties and performance induced by long-term cyclic loading. Advant...
