Effect of multiaxiality, stacking sequence and number of off-axis layers on the mechanical response and damage sequence of carbon/epoxy composite laminates under static loading Ghent University Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The mechanical response and damage sequence of composite materials are nowadays still a topic of ongoing research. However, many parameters influencing their overall behavior are still not thoroughly taken into consideration. The effect of multiaxial stresses, the distinction between balanced and unbalanced configurations and the influence of the number of off-axis layers are just a few to mention. Experimental data regarding the effect of all ...
