Moderate speed impact damage to 2D-braided glass-carbon composites

Hybrid glass-carbon 2D braided composites with varying carbon contents are impacted using a gas gun by impactors of masses 12.5 and 44.5 g, at impact energies up to 50 J. The damage area detected by ultrasound C-scan is found to increase roughly linearly with impact energy, and is larger for the lig...
