Characterization of Impact in Composite Laminates

Published: Jan 1, 2002
Abstract
A new experimental technique is developed to determine the onset and evolution of delamination in fiber‐reinforced composites. The configuration uses a split‐Hopkinson bar for low‐velocity impact loading and two Polytec laser vibrometer systems for real‐time monitoring of the initiation and progression of delamination. The experiment allows the histories of load, displacement, and velocity of impacted specimens to be recorded and analyzed....
