Polymer-Matrix Composites: Characterising the Impact of Environmental Factors on Their Lifetime
Polymer-matrix composites are widely used in engineering applications. Yet, environmental factors impact their macroscale fatigue and creep performances significantly, owing to several mechanisms acting at the microstructure level. Herein, we analyse the effects of water uptake that are responsible...
