Cohesive surface model for delamination and dynamic behavior of hybrid composite with SMA-GFRP interface [PDF]
International Journal of Lightweight Materials and Manufacture, 2019 The interface model between CuZnAl SMA and GFRP, used in a hybrid composite, is proposed using cohesive surfaces. Using this model and derived parameters, mode-II delamination is studied between CuZnAl SMA insert and GFRP and also between laser patterned
