Numerical Study on the Effect of Matrix Self-Heating on the Thermo-Visco-Plastic Response of Continuous Fiber-Reinforced Polymers under Transverse Tensile Loading

The recyclability and improved suitability for high-volume production make fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polymers (FRP) attractive alternatives for the current thermoset-based ones. However, while they are more ductile than their thermoset counterparts, their behavior is also more susceptible to en...
