© 2018 Elsevier Ltd A viscoelastically prestressed polymeric matrix composite (VPPMC) is produced by subjecting polymeric fibres to a creep load, which is removed before moulding the fibres into a polymeric matrix. The resulting fibre viscoelastic re... Read More about Viscoelastically prestressed polymeric matrix composites: An investigation into fibre deformation and prestress mechanisms.
