This STP contains papers presented at the Fourth Symposium on Composite Materials: Fatigue and Fracture. ASTM Committees D-30 on High Modulus Fibers and Their Composites, E-9 on Fatigue, and E-24 on Fracture Testing sponsored the symposium in May, 1991.
The 34 papers in this collection are organized under the headings
- Strength and Failure Modes
- Damage: Measurement, Analysis, and Modeling
- Interlaminar and Interlaminar Fracture
- Micromechanics and Interfaces
- Fatigue of Polymer Matrix Composites
- Fatigue of Ceramic Matrix, Metal Matrix, and Specialty Composites
Examples of specific topics addressed by the papers in this STP include:
- failure of graphite/epoxy panels
- stiffening strips
- failure initiation
- ultimate strength
- composite laminates
