Abstract
The present study provides the performance evaluation of 2 × 2 twill woven composite (S2-Glass and C-50 resin system) material for Integral Armor applications. The laminates were fabricated by using VARIM or RI (Vacuum Assisted Resin Infusion Molding). These components are expected to be under fatigue loading. Fatigue behavior of the unnotched and notched twill woven laminate is presented. Tension-Compression (R = −1) fatigue experiments were performed for both unnotched and notched panels. All the fatigue tests were performed at 1 Hz frequency. S-N diagram and stiffness degradation over the fatigue life of the specimen was obtained.
