The issue of CAI assessment of Fibre Metal Laminates
Composite Structures, 2022 Abstract Fibre Metal Laminates are currently one of the most perspective hybrids for aerospace and other industries, because of unique properties, especially damage resistance and damage tolerance. However, the lack of post-impact compressive strength assessment of FMLs and problems with applying effective testing methods was the source of the study.
