LVI has become a serious threat to the composite industry because it induces complex
failure mechanisms and internal damages which significantly reduce the structural …

The damage tolerance of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) to Barely Visible Impact
Damage (BVID) is a critical design limiter for composite structures. This study investigated …

This paper deals with impact damage and permanent indentation modeling. A numerical
model has been elaborated in order to simulate the different impact damage types …

This study is aimed at comparing the response of TS-based (epoxy) and TP-based (PPS or
PEEK) laminates subjected to low velocity impacts. C-scan inspections showed that impact …

This paper presents a model for the numerical simulation of impact damage, permanent
indentation and compression after impact (CAI) in CFRP laminates. The same model is used …

In this paper, the impact performance of a novel resin-infused acrylic thermoplastic matrix-
based 3D glass fabric composite (3D-FRC) has been evaluated and compared with …

Any attempt to achieve composite laminates with improved damage tolerance to low velocity
impacts must depart from the understanding of the sequence of damage mechanisms taking …

This study is aimed at comparing the response and damage of unidirectional (UD), woven
fabric (WF) and hybrid UD/WF fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) laminates subjected to low …

This paper represents experimental and numerical investigations into the dynamic response
of woven carbon fiber reinforced thick composite laminates under low-velocity impact …

Experimental investigations were carried out to determine the low-velocity impact behaviour
of carbon fibre composites with novel liquid Methylmethacrylate (MMA) thermoplastic matrix …
