We are glad to share that our recent study “An Experimental Investigation on Low-Velocity Impact Response and Compression After Impact of a Stochastic, Discontinuous Prepreg Tape Composite” was published in Composites Part A. We found drastically different failure patterns in platelet molded composite (discontinuous fiber, prepreg based) compared to traditional laminates, which resulted in interesting post impact response with changing fiber length. Material used in the study was Hexcel Corporation<\/a>‘s IM7\/8552.
