Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Allemand)

Carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRPs) have outstanding strength and stiffness at low weight; however their failure tends to be sudden and catastrophic, which limits their application in safety critical applications. They aim of this project is to develop composites made from discontinuous CFRP tapes, which undergo large plastic deformation before failure, thus providing greater safety and reliability in critical applications.
