This contribution hopes to give a comprehensive review of past and current research work
published on the dynamic response of fibre-metal laminates subjected to low velocity …

Shape memory polymer (SMP) is capable of memorizing one or more temporary shapes and
recovering successively to the permanent shape upon various external stimuli. Beside of the …

This article reviews the current state-of-the-art in the applications of shape memory alloy
(SMA) wires into high performance fibre reinforced polymer composite materials (FRPs) …

The present study proposes an integrated model for prediction of the dynamic behaviors
involving vibration and impact on hybrid fiber metal laminates embedded with a viscoelastic …

Nonlinear dynamic analysis of FG/SMA/FG sandwich shells on elastic foundations subjected
to the thermomechanical loading is performed in this paper for the first time. The sandwich …

In the present work a non-linear dynamic response of a continuous sandwich beam with
SMA hybrid composite face sheets and flexible core is analyzed taking into account the …

Composite materials are known to have a poor resistance to through-the-thickness impact
loading. There are various methods for improving their impact damage tolerance, such as …

Fiber–metal laminates (FMLs) are high-performance hybrid structures based on alternating
stacked arrangements of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) plies and metal alloy layers. The …

In this work, the effect of different concentration (0.5, 1 and 1.5 wt%) of reduced graphene
oxide (r-GO) on the mechanical, microstructural and high velocity impact behaviours of novel …

In this work, the behaviour of thermoplastic composites and Shape Memory Alloy Hybrid
Composites (SMAHCs) for aeronautical applications is analysed and compared by means of …
