Impact damage identification in composite laminates using vibration testing (2014, background): “The susceptibility of laminated composites to impact damage is due to the material’s lack of plastic deformation, low interlaminar strength and laminated construction to reduce the anisotropic nature of the plies Reid and Zho [1].”
Low velocity impact properties of 3D woven basalt/aramid hybrid composites (2008, background): “In the test, regardless of the yarn structure, the impact energy absorption might be overestimated because a certain amount of elastic energy was stored in the specimen prior to failure and could be dissipated acoustically, thermally, or in the form of kinetic energy of the failed parts [23].”
Impact Mechanics and High-Energy Absorbing Materials: Review (2008, background): “Reid and Zhou (2000) perform several experiments on the initiation of delamination and damage size from the impact process, exhibiting that the critical delamination force or energy could be observed from the contact force history curve.”
Damage behavior of fiber reinforced composite plates subjected to drop weight impacts (2006, methodology): “This method, called the A-Scan, is a common way for detecting any small failure, damage, voids, or non-homogeneity in a homogeneous continuum [8–10].”
