The measurement of longitudinal residual stresses in unidirectional glass fibre reinforced plastic

A wide range of experimental methods exist for estimating residual stresses. None of these methods is suitable, however, for finding the longitudinal residual stresses that exist in an unloaded unidirectional laminate of glass fibre reinforced plastic. This work presents a method that enables the...
