title = "How epoxy cure profiles (may) impact performance of non-crimp fabric composites",
abstract = "Glass fibre reinforced polymers made from quasi uni-directional non-crimp fabrics have recently been shown to suffer from a specific damage mechanism. This damage mechanism is dominated by off-axis cracks in the off-axis backing bundles of the fabrics. In addition, research results have indicated that the onset and propagation of such off-axis cracks may be influenced by the residual stresses that arising from the manufacturing process used to produce the Glass fibre reinforced composites. The current article investigates the potential effect of residual stresses on the fatigue life through an experimental set-up that involves tailored cure profiles and image based evaluation of tensile test experiments.",
