Hybrid composites are attractive engineering materials due to the potential cost
savings which can be achieved by partial replacement of more expensive types of
reinforcement. Further interest in these materials surrounds the possibility of achieving a
more desirable balance of certain mechanical properties in order to obtain an overall
material performance that cannot be realised by systems containing only one type of
reinforcement.
The major objective of this work was to achieve a better understanding of the
compressive behaviour of both thermoplastic and thermosetting matrix, hybrid
composites. [Continues.]
