The development of a modified biaxial composite test specimen
Bi-axial testing of composite structures has been an important topic in the research community for some years now. Bi-axial test specimens in the past have typically been cruciform specimens with a tapered thickness gage section. This ensures that the specimen will fail under bi-axial loading …

Metrology of optical telescope components
… such as carbon fiber reinforced epoxy (CFRE) composites can meet those requirements because of their nearly-zero CTE and potentially low CME. To employ these composite materials for telescope structural design, it is necessary to first develop practical and economical methods to determine …
