Abstract

A series of carbon fibre epoxy laminates have been prepared with a range of fibre orientations. The laminates have been tested under compression loading conditions to measure the specific energy absorption in crushing. A relationship has been identified between the specific sustained crushing stress and the interlaminar shear stress of the materials. This relationship mirrors a similar trend identified for glass fibre composites in an earlier programme.
