Damage initiation, progression and failure of polymer matrix composites due to manufacturing induced defects
In polymer matrix composites (PMCs) manufacturing processes can induce de- fects, e.g., voids, fiber misalignment, irregular fiber distribution in the cross-section and broken fibers. The effects of such defects can be beneficial or deleterious de- pending on whether they cause failure suppression o...
