Heterogeneity of discontinuous carbon fibre composites: damage initiation captured by Digital Image Correlation (2014)
Journal Article
Johanson, K., Harper, L., Johnson, M. S., & Warrior, N. (2015). Heterogeneity of discontinuous carbon fibre composites: damage initiation captured by Digital Image Correlation. Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing, 68, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compositesa.2014.10.014

This paper aims to identify architectural features which lead to damage initiation and failure in discontinuous carbon fibre composites formed from randomly orientated bundles. A novel multi-camera digital image correlation system was used to simulta...

The influence of coupling agent, fibre sizing and matrix degradation on the interfacial shear strength between carbon fibre and polypropylene (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Burn, D., Harper, L., Johnson, M., Warrior, N., Yang, L., & Thomason, J. (2014, June). The influence of coupling agent, fibre sizing and matrix degradation on the interfacial shear strength between carbon fibre and polypropylene. Paper presented at 16th European Conference on Composite Materials, Seville, Spain

The interface strength between carbon fibre (CF) and polypropylene (PP) was characterised using the microbond test. The effect of removing the sizing from the fibres, as well as introducing a maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MAPP) coupling age...
