Title: Characterization of IM7/8551-7 carbon/epoxy in compression and shear: Final report for the period October 1987 to September 1988

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6791264

This is a final report on a project entitled ''Characterization of IM7/8551-7 Carbon/Epoxy in Compression and Shear,'' for the period October 1987 to September 1988. The intent of this program is to determine the failure properties of carbon/epoxy laminates under multiaxial stress loadings, with particular emphasis on loadings involving compressive stresses. The work accomplished to date is summarized here, in the form of two published papers and a summary of other work. Appendix C contains a summary of the development of the multiaxial compression test fixture. 11 figs.
