Failure site location by acoustic emission for composites reliability assurance
The failure of fiber filaments in a composite subjected to load produces a stress wave which can be detected using acoustic emission techniques. The spatial clustering of multiple fiber failure sites is known to cause catastrophic failure of the macro composite. Acoustic emission can be used to dete...
