Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: Strength Parameters 8 2.2 General Purpose Laminate Program - Gen lam 12 3. Component Material Properties

Creator:: Berbinau, Pierre J.
Abstract:: The compressive behavior of continuous fiber composites is not as well understood as their tensile behavior because research and industrial applications have until recently focused on the latter. Furthermore, most theoretical and experimental studies on the compression of composites have examined the case of unidirectional specimens with fibers along the...

Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: 4.1 Uniaxial Characteristics As a result of uniaxial testing the following material characteristics

Creator:: Sutton, Matthew T.
Abstract:: Local material damage that occurs within cellular solids, such as polymer foams and trabecular bone, and precedes local fractures of the cell struts or walls is called micro-damage. The accumulation of micro-damage within cellular solids is often undesirable, although it is thought to be vital to the development and health...

Creator:: Schafer, Christopher A.
Abstract:: The transfer of air travelers with disabilities between a mobility aid and an aircraft seat is a major source of injury for both the travelers and the airline personnel assisting in the transfer. The risk to both parties might be reduced through the biomechanical study of the transfer task. Such...

Creator:: Nahan, Matthew F.
Abstract:: Design of commercial aircraft structure, composed of composite material, requires the prediction of failure loads given large scale damage. In particular, a fuselage of graphite/epoxy lamination was analyzed for damage tolerance given a standard large crack that severed both skin and internal structure. Upon loading, a zone of damage is...
