Abstract

This chapter discusses the impact properties of fiber-metal laminates, stacked arrangements of thin metal layers and composites plies. Initial attention focuses on the strain rate sensitivity of the constituent materials, including the rate sensitivity of the composite-metal interface. This is followed by a review of the low velocity impact response of FMLs where such things as failure mechanisms and scaling effects are considered. Finally, the high velocity impact response of FMLs is considered.
