Crack propagation behavior on metal laminate of FMLs after a high tensile overload under high constant amplitude load [PDF]
The crack propagation behaviour on the metal laminate of the FMLs is investigated under constant amplitude loads, which is higher compared to the fatigue strength of the metal laminate, and the subsequent crack propagation behaviours after being highly ...
