Loading direction is along the I-direction became more prevalent than in the 90 ply because of the overlapping of matrix cracks from the 90% plies on either side of the 0o ply. The penetration of pre existing cracks into neighboring 0 plies was accompanied by the initiation of new matrix cracks in the 90 ply. This again contrasts with a previous report that matrix cracks in the 90 ply were saturated a when the stress had reached 80 MPa [3]. It has also been noted that the ultimate tensile strength of five composite samples tested here ran 130 to 160 MPa, while in previous studies the failure stress for this composite was reported from 120 MPa Strain (%) [12] to 220 MPa 13, 13]. These differences may be attributed to sample variations [14] Fig. 2.

For example, Beyerle et al. [3] suggested that matrix cracks in the 90° ply always spanned the entire ply once initiated, whereas Mall and Kim [12] believed that matrix cracks occurred in a random manner and that no single crack grew across an entire ply. The average crack density was determined as a function of stress from the surface replicas and is presented in Fig. 6. Crack initiation stress was taken as 50 MPa, which was estimated from the stress– strain curve and AE measurement. At stress levels below |95 MPa the crack density in the weaker 90° ply was higher than in the 0° ply. As the applied stress increased, the 90° ply cracks then began to pen￾etrate into the 0° ply. By the time the stress had reached above 95 MPa, matrix cracks in the 0° ply became more prevalent than in the 90° ply because of the overlapping of matrix cracks from the 90° plies on either side of the 0° ply.

Metallographic observations of surface replicas taken after unloading and failure are consistent with the notion that matrix cracks initiated in the 90° ply near the ply boundary, then gradually extended into the 90° ply. As shown in Fig. 7 (taken after sample failure), matrix cracks in the central double 90° layer are arrested near ply boundaries. This is believed to be due to uneven crack openings in the 90° ply: crack openings near the ply boundary (initiation site) were generally larger than those at the ply center for a given stress level. Additionally, fibers in the 0° plies exert frictional forces upon crack closure during unloading, which could also contribute to a lower extent of crack closure in the 90° ply near the ply boundary. This is further illustrated by comparing Fig. 8(a), taken at a stress of 137 MPa, with Fig. 8(b) taken after unloading to 10 MPa from 150 MPa.
