A study of the mechanical properties and scaling effects in a thermoplastic fibre-metal laminate

This study investigates scaling effects in a novel fibre-metal laminate (FML) system based on a thermoplastic matrix. The material is based on an aluminium alloy, a selfreinforced polypropylene composite and a polypropylene film acting as an interlayer adhesive. Initially, the mechanical characteris...
