Damage Assessment and Strength Predictions in S-Glass/Epoxy Laminates Subjected to Low Energy Impact
<p>Composite materials have become one of the leading materials for manufacturing in the aerospace industry today. Compared to "conventional" aerospace metals, composites generally have higher strength-to-weight and stiffness-to-weight ratios, good fatigue and corrosion resistance and reduced parts …

Compressive strength of lamina reinforced and fiber reinforced composite materials
… aluminum-wax laminates, boron-epoxy tubes and S-glass-epoxy tubes. In addition, torsion tests and combined compression and torsion tests were conducted on the fiber reinforced tubes. Coordinates of fibers in a boron-epoxy laminate were measured. Experimental results indicate that the aluminum-wax …

An improved finite-element model for simulating microwave processing of polymers and polymer-composites in a cylindrical resonant cavity
… The materials considered were nylon 66, S-glass/polycarbonate composite, and S2-glass/epoxy composite. To study the advantages and disadvantages of microwave processing over conventional processing, comparisons were'made between the simulations of the two processes.
