A review on fatigue of fiber reinforced composites

The fatigue of the fiber reinforced composites is a very active research field at present. According to the papers and research reports on fatigue of composites at home and abroad in the last two decades, this paper reviews the following four aspects, 1) The fatigue strength of composites and its influencing factors. 2) Initiation of composites damage and fatigue crack growth. 3) Models of fatigue damage. 4) Prediction of fatigue life. The further development and study topics in the fatigue of composites ar...
