Mechanical performance and self-sensing for through-thickness reinforced composites
This dissertation is focused on predicting the mechanical performance and damage self-sensing capability of composite laminates reinforced through the thickness with carbon Z-pins. A micro-mechanical finite element (FE) modelling strategy is developed for the analysis of the through-thickness reinfo...
