Specimen gripping effects in composites fatigue testing -– Concerns from initial investigation

This paper presents the findings of an initial investigation into effects of end tabs and gripping force on specimens for fatigue testing of structural composites. Live measurement of specimen compliance comparing extensometer measurements with grip displacement showed the impact of gripping on the...
