Abstract

This paper examines the tensile properties and damage behavior of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminates at cryogenic temperatures. Cryogenic tensile tests were conducted on three types of woven-fabric laminate specimens, and information about the damage initiation and progression was provided by acoustic emission (AE) technique. A finite element model was also developed for progressive failure analyses of the three tensile test specimens, and applied to simulate the damage behavior in each specimen. A comparison was made between simulation and experiment.
