This paper reviews the literature published since 1994 related to the behaviour of composite
materials at low and cryogenic temperatures. The material properties addressed are: tensile …

Compared with traditional metal tanks, prototype linerless composite cryogenic propellant
tanks can achieve weight reductions up to 20%–40%. This prototype has recently become …

Sandwich panels are composites which consist of two thin laminate outer skins and
lightweight (eg, honeycomb) thick core structure. Owing to the core structure, such …

For future launch vehicles in aerospace technology, lightweight fuel vessels for liquid
oxygen and hydrogen are required. Similar demands derive from the increasing …

Auxiliary metamaterials designed according to the Negative Poisson's Ratio (NPR) property
are exciting structures due to their high impact strength, impact energy absorption abilities …

This study investigates the compression after impact (CAI) behavior of carbon-fiber foam-
core sandwich composites in low temperature arctic conditions. Low-velocity impact and CAI …

Fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composites are increasingly considered for lightweight
cryogenic pressure vessels due to their excellent combination of tailorability, specific …

A liquid oxygen-compatible epoxy resin is successfully prepared by changing the
epoxy/amine equivalent ratio (SR) of a phosphorus-containing epoxy resin. The liquid …

Abstract 3D through-the-thickness stitching can be used to improve interlaminar properties
of polymer matrix composites (PMCs) and produce lightweight, unitized structures for …

In this paper, the creep behavior of newly basalt fiber metal laminates (BFML) is studied
experimentally. For this purpose, standard BFML specimens made by various lay-ups of …
