V.R. Pakkam Gabriel¹, P. Fernberg¹; ¹Luleå University of Technology, Sweden

Results from development of a methodology for prediction of consequences of the damage accumulation occurring during fatigue loading of fiber reinforced polymer composites (FRPC) are presented. The methodology is developed with the intention of being applied to temperature resistant FRPC with potential use in e.g. aeroengine applications.
