Compressive Damage and Failure Behavior of Plain-Woven GFRP Sandwich Composite L-Joints of Ships: Experiment and Simulation

Compressive Damage and Failure Behavior of Plain-Woven GFRP Sandwich Composite L-Joints of Ships: Experiment and Simulation

This paper studies the compressive failure behavior of pw-GFRP (plain-woven glass fiber reinforced polymer) sandwich composite L-joints for ships. Six L-joint specimens were subjected to ultimate compressive tests, which show that damage and stiffness degradation started much earlier than any visibl...
