Composite patches of epoxy-based unidirectional carbon and woven glass prepregs were adhesively bonded on uncracked and center cracked standard specimens of aluminum sheet, and patched specimens were evaluated by tensile testing. The effect of various surface treatments, patch length, and number of
Bonded composite-patch repair has been used to transfer load from cracked structures to the reinforcement such that subsequent crack propagation is reduced. In this study, the mechanical behavior of a single edge v-notch Al7075-T6 plate repaired with 1-ply and 4-ply composite patches was investigate
## Abstract In this study, edgeβcracked steel plates repaired on twoβsides with composite as well as smart composite patches were investigated experimentally for their response to Charpy impact test. Woven glass and Kevlar fibres were used for composite patches. Each patch was made by two layers. T
