Life Prediction Methodologies for Composite Materials
Abstract
The committee assessed the methodologies used for the life prediction of organic composites utilized in load-bearing applications. The study is a state of the art survey of composites technology and life prediction methodologies for fiber reinforced polymer composites under various loading conditions. Conclusions and recommendations are presented for future research and development to aid in the development of reliable life-prediction methods that allow the safe and predictable application of organic matrix composites in load-bearing structures.
