- Additional information
- This paper reported on experimental data about the flexural response of a unidirectional composite, and a micromechanical explanation of the origin of the plasticity-dominant behaviour of the material. Excellent model development data were generated for validation of computational models based on this type of low fibre volume fraction composite. The approach had been extended to textile composites with variable configurations.
