Scaling Effects in Notched Composites (2010, background): “Results of unnotched scaled tests are also included for both tension [6] and compression [24].”
Comparison of open hole tension characteristics of high strength glass and carbon fibre-reinforced composite materials (2008, background): “As such, a considerable literature exists on the damage characteristics of notched CFRP laminates [2-17].”
Finite element analysis of burst pressure of composite hydrogen storage vessels (2009, background): “After performing the stiffness reduction on the failed composite elements, the stress redistributions lead to the stress concentrations on the neighbouring elements [31,32].”
Thin ply composites: Experimental characterization and modeling of size-effects (2014, unknown): “Residual strains, fibre alignment and waviness, porosity and the amount of fibre clustering and resin rich zones tend to increase in larger and thicker structures, thus introducing another kind of size effect which is closely related to the production process [2,9,10].”
Compressive failure of laminates containing an embedded wrinkle; experimental and numerical study (2015, background): “It is well known that high fibre volume-fraction composites fail in axial compression by the formation and broadening of a highly localised and strained zone called ‘kink band’[19].”
Measuring the notched compressive strength of composite laminates : Specimen size effects (2008, methodology): “However, the 8mm thick specimen’s average strength is significantly lower than that of thinner specimens (drops about 29 % in going from 2mm to 8mm) due to matrix cracking introduced by thermal stresses during the specimen cutting process [15].”
