Multi-layer
Laminates
· A laminate
is a series of unidirectional laminae bonded together so that their fiber
directions make different angle with a material axis. By controlling the
number of layers and the fiber angles, the laminate may have its mechanical
properties tailored to specific tasks.
· The
diagram shows typical fiber directions in a multi-layer laminate
that is symmetrical about its center.
· The symmetry of a laminate is important in determining its response
to temperature changes, applied stresses, and other external conditions.
