The effects of open holes on the fracture behaviors and mechanical properties of glass fiber mat composites

In this paper, composite specimens were fabricated from a glass fiber chopped strand mat and unsaturated polyester resin using the hand lay-up method. To evaluate the effects of open holes on the mechanical properties, different factors, including the volume fraction of glass fiber and material thic...
