Compressive strength determined for ultrahigh modulus fiber reinforced composites by [90/0]ns laminates

Traditional ASTM null D6641 null standard is not suitable for ultrahigh modulus carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites under longitudinal compression due to the unacceptable failure mode of end crushing. Experiments and micro-mechanical finite element simulations are conducted for [90/0]ns laminates under compression to check if it is acceptable using results of [90/0]ns laminates to calculate longitudinal compressive strength....
