Effects of UV light and moisture absorption on the impact resistance of three different carbon fiber-reinforced composites

George, Jithin Mathew (Wichita State University, 2014-05)

Carbon fiber is extensively used in aircraft components and structures, where its superior strength-to weight ratio far exceeds that of any metal. Thirty percent of all carbon fiber is used in the aerospace industry. The ...
Effects of UV light and moisture absorption on the impact resistance of three different carbon fiber-reinforced composites

Patlolla, Vamsidhar Reddy; George, Jithin Mathew; Loo, Soo-Han; Asmatulu, Ramazan (American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2015)

The purpose of this research was to determine the influence of material properties on the impact response of a laminate, whereby specimens were fabricated and cured under a vacuum and high temperature using three types of ...
