Predicion of Elastic Properties of Carbon Plastics Obtained by Vacuum Bag Resin Infusion and Direct Prepreg Pressing Technologies
This study compares the elastic properties of carbon fiber composites manufactured via vacuum infusion and prepreg pressing, finding that while theoretical predictions based on Voigt, Halpin-Tsai, and classical laminate theory models align well with experimental bending results, they show significant discrepancies in compression tests.
