Manufacturing and Shear Response Characterization of Carbon Nanofiber Modified CFRP Using the Out-of-Autoclave-Vacuum-Bag-Only Cure Process
Figure 5
DIC images for a representative control sample (a) and for a representative CNF modified sample (b). The screen shots represent the samples as they begin to experience the color coordinated strain levels. The colors as described by the color bars to the right of the images represent strain concentrations on the front of the samples. The pictures of the fractured samples are also shown in the front-view, side-view, and back-view to be compared with the DIC images.
