The present treatise offers an investigation into the operative mechanisms of stress redistribution and notch insensitivity of the prepreg-based, long-fiber discontinuous …
Multiscale material systems derive their effective mechanical properties through a hierarchical organization of their structural elements and components. The hierarchy of a …
Carbon-fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) are often used in the aerospace and automotive industries for their high strength-to-weight ratios and corrosion resistance. A new class of …
