Optical sensors, like Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG), can be easily embedded into composite structures, thus obtaining structures with health monitoring capabilities. In this work, fatigue crack growth in adhesively bonded joints of thick composite laminates was experimentally investigated using FBG. An
Fatigue crack propagation in a notched specimen under cyclic loading was investigated for a series of experimental composite resins and six commercial composites. The fatigue resistance was measured as a function of filler content, water absorption, and post-curing temperature. Constants A and rn of
