Durability of polymer matrix composites: Viscoelastic effect on static and fatigue loading

The structural applications of polymer matrix composites (PMC) demand lifetimes of 15, 25 and 50 years. However, the mechanical properties of these composites have a time dependent nature, i.e. strength and stiffness are time-dependent due to the hereditary nature (viscoelasticity) of polymers. In t...
