Mechanisms of Origin and Classification of Out-of-Plane Fiber Waviness in Composite Materials—A Review

Out-of-plane fiber waviness, also referred to as wrinkling, is considered one of the most significant effects that occur in composite materials. It significantly affects mechanical properties, such as stiffness, strength and fatigue and; therefore, dramatically reduces the load-carrying capacity of...
