Morphology-induced fatigue crack arresting in carbon fibre sheet moulding compounds
Abstract
Carbon Fibre Sheet Moulding Compounds (CF-SMCs) are tow-based composite materials. Interrupted fatigue tests, combined with computed tomography, were performed here to investigate the damage mechanisms in high in-mould flow CF-SMC. The tow-based microstructure created obstacles for fatigue damage propagation, increasing the CF-SMC’s resistance against cyclic loading. Failure is shown to nucleate inside the tows, but inter-tow crack propagation...
