Fatigue in Composite Materials
Fatigue in Composite Materials

Fibre composites, like metals, exhibit a form of degradation in service described as 'fatigue'. The mechanism by which this deterioration occurs is very different from those in metals. For today's engineer the challenge is to choose materials and use them in such a way as to avoid failures within the design life of a component or structure.
