Low-Velocity Impact Induced Damage Evaluation and Its Influence on the Residual Flexural Behavior of Glass/Epoxy Laminates Hybridized with Glass Fillers

This research work investigates the low-velocity impact induced damage behavior and its influence on the residual flexural response of glass/epoxy composites improved with milled glass fillers. The low-velocity impact damage employing varying impact velocities (3 m/s, 3.5 m/s, and 4 m/s) was induced on baseline and filler loaded samples with different fiber orientations. The residual performance and their damage modes were characterized using...
