| Abstract: | Abstract The interlaminar tensile strength of carbon/epoxy laminated curved beams with variable thickness and through-the-thickness tufted reinforcement is studied experimentally by means of a four-point-bending test in accordance with ASTM D6415. These tests are monitored by the acoustic emission (AE) technique in order to gain deeper knowledge of the delamination onset and post-failure behavior. The results show that AE technique has proven to perform well when identifying delamination onset and its evolution after failure. In addition to this, AE has demonstrated to be an appropriate tool to assess the manufacturing quality of the carbon/epoxy laminated curved-beam, once the right pattern has previously been established. |
