Microcracking Fracture Toughness for Graphite Epoxy Composite Laminates Using Finite Fracture Mechanics
Graphite/epoxy composite laminates are widely used in the aerospace industry. However the industry cannot take full advantage of the superior strength and stiffness of composite materials until their failure mechanisms can be thoroughly understood by engineers. Recognizing the importance of such und...
