Abstract In the present paper, a new fifth-order shear and normal deformation theory (FOSNDT) is developed for the bi-directional bending analysis of laminated composite and sandwich plates subjected
ABSTRACT This paper deals with the determination of the effective elastic constants of structural composite materials of aeronautical use by means of vibration test. The experiment was conducted in an
We performed in-situ tensile tests on two carbon fibre/epoxy composites with continuous scanning using synchrotron computed tomography (CT). Both composites were cross-ply laminates, and two specimens
