Elastic Fibre Prestressing Mechanics within a Polymeric Matrix Composite
The elastic fibre prestressing (EFP) technique has been developed to balance the thermal residual stress generated during curing of a polymeric composite. The continuous fibre reinforcements are prestressed and then impregnated into a polymeric matrix, where the prestress load is only removed after...
