Quantifying inter- and intra-ply shear in the deformation of uncured composite laminates

Understanding the bending mechanics of uncured carbon fiber prepreg is vital for modeling forming processes and the formation of out-of-plane wrinkling defects. This article presents a modification of standard dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) to characterize the viscoelastic bending mechanics of un...
