Statistical analysis of creep behavior in thermoset and thermoplastic composites reinforced with carbon and glass fibers

The thermoplastic and thermoset laminates reinforced with different fibers generate variations in the laminated composite mechanical behavior. This work aims to analyze thermoplastic and thermoset composites creep behavior with a reduced number of experiments, applying curve-fitting analytical models (Weibull and Findley) and statistical approach (ANOVA, F-test, and SRM) in order to describe creep behavior. Creep tests were carried out using a...
