An efficient numerical approach for the prediction of the Compression After Impact (CAI)
strength of aerospace-grade CFRP laminates when exposed to Barely Visible Impact …

This paper investigates the effect of transverse impact loading on the in-plane shear
behaviour of two laminate configurations. The extensive experimental studies consider a …

CFRP structures can be damaged in different ways during service. Therefore, the effect of a
damage on the structural behaviour has to be considered during the design process. Often …

This paper proposed a method for predicting composite laminates' compressive residual
strength after impact based on convolutional neural networks. Laminates made by …

In this work, the tensile behavior of a hybrid metallic–composite stiffened panel is
investigated. The analyzed structure consists of an omega-reinforced composite fiber …

Composite components are required to be resilient against Foreign Object Damage (FOD)
induced by localised high velocity impact events. Here an experimental investigation into …

The use of composite materials in civil aviation is today certainly widespread, but sometimes
this not implies that the final product is obtained exploiting the full potential of this kind of …

A comparative experimental and numerical study of the impact behaviour of carbon-fiber-
reinforced thermoplastic (TP) and thermoset (TS) composites has been carried out. On the …

Purpose Engineering composite laminates/structures are usually subjected to complex and
variable loads, which result in interlayer delamination damage. However, damaged laminate …

The presented study is focused on the experimental study of impact resistance of integral
polymer composite panels with lengthwise framing. In the course of the work, the character …
