The effect of multiple/repeated impacts on a repaired composite was investigated using a low-velocity impact test. The composite samples were fabricated through a vacuum resin infusion method (VARI) and repaired by a scarf repair technique. Later, a repeated low-velocity impact test was performed on the original and repaired composites samples. Performance of the multi-impacted repaired and original samples was evaluated and compared by measuring maximum contact force, maximum displacement, maximum time duration, absorbed energy and damage area. Photographs of the post-impacted samples were taken to observe the multi-impact damage progression through visual inspection. The results showed that each repeated impact subjected the samples to more damage. Tensile tests revealed that the scarf repair restored 81.23% strength. It was also observed that the sample obtained the highest damage dent in the low-velocity impact test that failed early during a tensile test and carried the lowest ultimate load.

“…The appearance of this dent demonstrates that an impact has occurred. Considerable internal damages including little surface appearance are Glass-fiber-reinforced Aluminum Laminates formed in traditional composites when affected by the same impact energy levels [8][9][10][11][12][13]. Due to the scatter in the results, impact tests usually waste time, and large sample sizes are needed for them.…”

“…Modelling damage from in and out of plane loads delamination is just related to the finite element analysis. There have been some analytical methods created to determine the impact loading [10,12]. In a study, Wu et al [14] experimentally investigated the damage tolerance of fiber metal laminates which have been empowered bidirectionally.…”

“…Even though the consumption of synthetic fibers improves the stiffness and strength properties. The recyclability and biodegradability hinder the adoptability of the synthetic fibers [3][4][5][6]. The advancement in fiber reinforced polymer composite laminates with glass and carbon fiber as reinforcement are widely used for many engineering applications such as aerospace, automotive, oil and marine industries owing to their physical as well as mechanical properties.…”

Recently, composite materials are used in various automotive applications. The reasons for composite materials are low weight and can withstand high strength. The present work focuses on the preparation and characterization of some advanced Fiber metal laminate (FML) like Al/BF with epoxy, Al/CF with epoxy, Al/GF with epoxy and its automotive application. Fiber metal laminate is the arrangement of metal fiber, resin in required stacking order. The required fiber metal laminate was fabricated using compression moulding process and the samples were subjected to wide range of mechanical and thermo mechanical characterizations such as tensile strength, impact, erosion wear and flammability test respectively. All the tests are done as per ASTM standards. The applicability and replaceability of the material with conventional automotive materials were studied and results were tabulated
