Journal Article
Xu, X., Takeda, S., Aoki, Y., Hallett, S. R., & Wisnom, M. R. (2017). Predicting notched tensile strength of full-scale composite structures from small coupons using fracture mechanics. Composite Structures, 180, 386-394. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compstruct.2017.08.026

The initial fracture propagation within a full-scale stiffened quasi-isotropic composite panel and coupons with stringer feet under tensile loads was investigated. The specimens were made from Non-Crimp Fabric through Vacuum assisted Resin Transfer M...
