Effect of curing cycle on void distribution and interlaminar shear strength in polymer-matrix composites (2011, background): “…has been well established in previous studies that porosity leads to a marked reduction in the composite mechanical properties, particularly those dominated by the matrix behavior like the interlaminar shear strength and the transverse tensile strength Liu et al. (2006); Bowles and Frimpong (1992).”
