Impact properties and finite element analysis of a pultruded composite system
thesis
posted on 2013-06-12, 09:32 authored by M. WisheartThis project was sponsored by two companies interested in promoting the use of pultruded
glass fibre/polyester composites in the construction of freight containers. Thus, the
research was to understand and quantify the damage mechanisms caused by low velocity
impact on the composite system and to produce a finite element impact model to further
the understanding of these events [continued]…
