Abstract

Journal of Composite Materials, Ahead of Print.
This study investigates the tensile and fatigue behavior along with the Fracture Fatigue Entropy (FFE) of randomly oriented discontinuous glass fiber-reinforced thermoset composites with 30% (FS30) and 35% (FS35) fiber volume fractions. Tensile tests ...
