An experimental and theoretical investigation of nonlinear viscoelastic deformation in graphite/epoxy laminates /

The objective of this research is to develop an approximate theoretical model of the time dependent deformation and failure in graphite fiber composites. To this end, Classical Laminate Theory (CLT) in conjunction with a nonlinear viscoelastic (VE) relation will be employed to model time-dependent...
