On Thursday 26th July, The ATLAS Team has the pleasure of hosting Prof. Michael Wisnom from The University of Bristol.

Professor Wisnom presented on High Performance Pseudo-Ductile Composites (Thin-ply hybrid and angle ply laminates can exhibit pseudo-ductile response as a result of stable ply fragmentation. This mechanism for pseudo-ductility is reviewed and it is shown that a similar response is possible in compression as well as tension. Fatigue and other mechanical characteristics of these pseudo-ductile composites are also presented). 

You can watch his presentation on High Performance Pseudo-Ductile Composites  via the video below.
