Buckling of composite laminates with multiple delaminations: Part II experiments

This paper focus on the experimental study of the buckling of composite laminates with multiple delaminations, as a succession to the theoretical and numerical studies in Part I. Test specimens containing delaminations of different length and different depth were fabricated by embedding Teflon plastic film using hot pressing machine. Compressive tests were carried out to investigate the influence of the delamination conditions on the buckling...
