Thermomechanical characterisation of a thermoplastic polymer and its short glass fibre reinforced composite: influence of fibre, fibre orientation, strain rates and temperatures

Polycarbonate composites are widely used in products exposed to high strain rate deformation. This paper investigates the thermomechanical properties of polycarbonate and 20 wt% glass fibre reinforced polycarbonate to provide characterisation data and improved mechanistic understanding of the respon...
