Effect of fibre topology on hygro-mechanical response of polymer matrix composites

Diffusion of moisture through fibre reinforced polymers (FRP) is one of the main environmental causes of their deterioration and loss of service life. Moisture diffusion and the resulting stresses in a fibre-matrix system vary considerably with the topology of the fibres inside the polymer matrix. T...
