Abstract

Today, lightweight and low cost components can be obtained with short fibre reinforced plastics. The recyclable nature of these materials by comparison to thermoset matrixes composites is also clearly appealing. This paper investigates static and fatigue behaviour for a glass-fibre-reinforced polypropylene composite. Tensile tests were carried out using DIC and IR Camera. Stress vs strain curves and temperature evolution associated to the applied tensile tests were determined. The trend of the surface temperature of the specimen during fatigue tests was analyzed.
