Experimental and computational analysis of failure mechanisms in unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced polymer laminates under longitudinal compression loading
Abstract
This study investigates the failure mechanisms of notched unidirectional (UD) carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates subjected to longitudinal compressive loading. A sequence of failure initiation and propagation is observed based on optical microscopy images of specimens during failure. The micrographs reveal that the main failure mechanism in UD laminates is fiber kinking failure. The influence of manufacturing defects and voids on...
