Abstract

A comprehensive literature review on the rate dependency of unidirectional CFRP composites has been carried out. Starting with the micro-scale constituents, literature data on the effect of loading rate on stiffness, strength, and fracture properties have been compared. While carbon fibres showed no significant rate effects, the rate dependency of the strength and stiffness properties was found consistent across various polymer matrix materials. In contrast, there was a general lack of consensus on the rate dependency of the matrix fracture properties.

At the macroscopic scale, the rate effects on the composite strength and stiffness properties were found to remain consistent across different combinations of constituent materials, while conflicting reports have been found on the rate dependency of the fracture properties. Finally, it has been shown that the rate dependency of composite strength and stiffness properties can be related to the constituent properties through established homogenisation theories and failure criteria.

期刊介绍： Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing is a comprehensive journal that publishes original research papers, review articles, case studies, short communications, and letters covering various aspects of composite materials science and technology. This includes fibrous and particulate reinforcements in polymeric, metallic, and ceramic matrices, as well as 'natural' composites like wood and biological materials. The journal addresses topics such as properties, design, and manufacture of reinforcing fibers and particles, novel architectures and concepts, multifunctional composites, advancements in fabrication and processing, manufacturing science, process modeling, experimental mechanics, microstructural characterization, interfaces, prediction and measurement of mechanical, physical, and chemical behavior, and performance in service. Additionally, articles on economic and commercial aspects, design, and case studies are welcomed. All submissions undergo rigorous peer review to ensure they contribute significantly and innovatively, maintaining high standards for content and presentation. The editorial team aims to expedite the review process for prompt publication.
