Abstract The out-of-plane fold is a common defect of composite materials during
the manufacturing process and will greatly affect the compressive strength as well
as the service life. Making it of great importance to investigate the influence of
out-of-plane defects to the compressive strength of laminate plates of composite
materials, and to understand the patterns of defect evolution. Therefore, the strip
method is applied in this article to create out-of-plane defects with different aspect
ratios in laminated plates of composite materials, and a compressive performance
test is conducted to quantify the influence of out-of-plane defects. The result
shows that the compressive… More >
