Abstract
Tests were conducted to measure the degradation of the mechanical performances of jute/polyester woven laminates with increasing impact energy. Tensile failure occurred by macroscopic matrix cracking under the point of impact. The results highlight the characteristic patterns of impact damage and post-impact fatigue damage in jute reinforced laminates.
