Fat-tailed failure strength distributions and manufacturing defects in advanced composites

Abstract This study investigates how manufacturing defects transform the statistical distribution of failure in carbon fiber-reinforced polymer composites under tension and compression loading. The analysis of tension and compression specimens reveals that defect-free composites exhibit relatively n...
