Study of the Nature of Fracture Failure in Composite Materials.

Abstract

The boron, aluminum composite material samples were cut to shape and subjected to push-pull type of loading under Instron Servo Hydrolic test system to failure. The failure surfaces were examined under electron microscope. The data collected under about ten experiments were used for an M.S.E. thesis of one graduate student. Keywords: Fracture failure of composite materials; Boron Fiber metal Matrix composite Material; Fatigue Failure.
