Fatigue behaviour of un-notched and open-hole quasi-isotropic pseudo-ductile thin-ply carbon/glass hybrid laminates (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Fotouhi, M., Suwarta, P., Jenkin, R., Jalalvand, M., & Wisnom, M. (2019, August). Fatigue behaviour of un-notched and open-hole quasi-isotropic pseudo-ductile thin-ply carbon/glass hybrid laminates. Presented at ICCM22, Melbourne, Australia

This paper investigates fatigue behaviour of a QI composite made from thin carbon plies and standard thickness glass plies. As illustrated in Fig. 2, this orientation-dispersed QI thin-ply carbon/glass hybrid laminate showed a successful pseudo-ducti...

Investigation of the hybrid effect in high performance quasi-isotropic thin-ply carbon/glass composites under tension (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Idarraga, G., Fotouhi, M., Jalalvand, M., J, M., & Wisnom, M. (2019, August). Investigation of the hybrid effect in high performance quasi-isotropic thin-ply carbon/glass composites under tension. Presented at ICCM22, Melbourne, Australia

This work studies the hybrid effect in high performance Quasi-Isotropic (QI) composite plates under tensile loading. The hybrid effect is the enhancement in strain at failure of the carbon fibre layers in the hybrid composite compared with a pure car...

Achieving gradual failure in hybrid composite laminates- progressing from tension to beding (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Jalalvand, M., Idarraga, G., Fotouhi, M., Meza, J., & Wisnom, M. (2019, August). Achieving gradual failure in hybrid composite laminates- progressing from tension to beding. Presented at ICCM22, Melbourne, Australia

Most of the progress to-date about achieving gradual failure have been mainly focused on in-plane loading and particularly tension. In many real structural applications, the load is not pure in-plane and is a mix of in-plane and transverse. One of th...

Polyether sulfone interleaved glass/carbon hybrid composite under impact loading (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Fotouhi, S., Clamp, J., Bolouri, A., & Fotouhi, M. (2019, May). Polyether sulfone interleaved glass/carbon hybrid composite under impact loading. Poster presented at Comptest2019, Lulea, Sweden

This work presents an attempt to improve the low velocity impact performance of Carbon/Glass hybrid composites by interleaving with tough polyether sulfone (PES) membranes. The hybrid composite was made of a glass/epoxy block that was sandwiched betw... Read More about Polyether sulfone interleaved glass/carbon hybrid composite under impact loading.
