Prognostics and health management (PHM) algorithms to predict the electromechanical
behavior of double cantilever beam (DCB) composites were proposed using the particle …

Self-sensing techniques are restricted to monitoring the various types of damage caused
during repeated impact testing, and only a few studies have investigated the prognostics of …

In this paper, we propose a method for numerically evaluating the probability of failure from
the diagnostic results of condition monitoring using the Bayesian theorem. When performing …

Predicting failure in composite materials under service loading conditions has been
challenging due to the non-uniform mechanical properties arising from the composite …

As carbon fibers are electrical conductors, the measurement of the electrical resistance
appears to be a valuable technique for the in situ detection of various types of damage in …

Composite materials are extensively used in aircraft structures, wherein they are subjected
to cyclic loads and subsequently impact-induced damages. Progressive fatigue degradation …
