“…These two values are significantly higher than the manufacturer's quoted 1.5% failure strain for T300 fibres [36] and 1.6% knee point fragmentation strain in another pseudo-ductile configuration with angle-ply blocks around the 0 plies [37]. This enhancement in the failure strain of the 0 carbon layer is due to the 'hybrid effect', which has recently been studied in UD thin-ply specimens [38] intervals. This is because the stress concentration due to fragmentation in one 0 carbon layer can more easily lead to failure in the other layer in this QI laminate with a thinner and lower stiffness separating sub-laminate compared to the other QI with 45 intervals.…”

“…For the ±60QI/0 and ±45QI/0 laminates, the nearby 0 glass ply has a significantly higher stiffness compared to the off-axis glass layers. So, when it is next to the fragmenting 0 carbon layer, the stress concentration at a single carbon fibre break would be lower as the glass ply can significantly contribute to carrying load around a subcritical cluster of broken fibres [21]. This explains the highest average pseudo-yield strain in the ±60QI/ 0 (1.80%) and the ±45QI/0 (1.90%) specimens.…”

“…Swolfs et al [20] reviewed the basic mechanisms causing the hybrid effect, with the most significant considered to be thermal residual stresses, altered failure development due to statistical effects on formation of clusters of fibre breaks and dynamic stress concentrations. Wisnom et al [21] used glass/carbon hybrid composites, rather than all carbon composites, to measure the strain to failure of the baseline carbon plies more accurately, to reduce the variability typically obtained using conventional unidirectional tests and avoid the high values for the hybrid effect values when using these tests as the baseline [9e11]. This method addressed the difficulty in measuring the strain to failure due to stress concentrations at the load introduction regions.…”

“…By using intra-ply/inter-ply hybridization (PP/IL1) increased the bending strength as 19.4% and 17.2% compared to non-hybrid PP/CC and PP/GC composites, respectively. It could be caused by the constraint from the intra-ply and interply E-glass fibers that prevent carbon fiber breakages and formed a considerable hybridization effect due to the delay in failure of the carbon fibers [39].…”
