A stochastic morphological modelling framework has been established to predict the tensile behaviour of Randomly Oriented Strands made of ultra-thin Carbon Fibre Reinforced Thermoplastic prepreg tapes. The tape properties from their distributions are... Read More about Rapid prediction of fibre-dominant tensile failure in randomly oriented strands.

A novel test configuration has been developed to induce combined stress-states of in-plane longitudinal tension and transverse compression in thin-ply, unidirectional (UD) composite layers. Three different multi-directional laminates have been design... Read More about The effect of transverse compressive stresses on tensile failure of carbon fibre/epoxy composites.
