In this study, polyurea coating has been applied to improve the impact resistance of carbon
fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) battery pack housing under automotive crash condition. The …

A full-scale model for predicting low-velocity impact (LVI) damage and compression after
impact (CAI) strength was established based on a subroutine of the material constitutive …

Abstract Fibre Metal Laminates are currently one of the most perspective hybrids for
aerospace and other industries, because of unique properties, especially damage …

Fiber metal laminate (FML) is an extremely strong and light material that is widely applied in
the structural components of aircraft for weight reduction and improving mechanical …

This study aims to evaluate the impact damage of FML panels under the effects of elevated
temperatures. Low-velocity impact tests were conducted experimentally on FML panels at …

Fiber-metal hybrid lamina composites (FM-HLCs) are a new kind of fiber-metal composites,
which aims at addressing the metal-composite interface failure in conventional fiber-metal …

This paper explores the mechanical properties of 3D-printed continuous carbon fibre (CCF)-
reinforced helicoidal laminates inspired by the laminar structures found in crustacean …

The primary goal of this study is to see how multi-walled carbon nano tubes (MWCNTs) and
nano silicon carbide particles (SiC) affect basalt reinforced epoxy composites made using …

An experimental analysis of mechanical behaviour for aluminium-based fibre metal
laminates under compression after impact was conducted. Damage initiation and …

In this study, different configurations of epoxy composite laminates that contained thin plies
were prepared and characterised for sudden impact load bearing applications. The primary …
