Units
Condition
Condition
cured T300 carbon-fiber/913C-resin unidirectional tape lamina model
Temper
not applicable
Heat treatment
cure cycle not reported in the NASA table
Product form
unidirectional tape lamina (0-degree tape in the analyzed structure)
Thickness / diameter range
ply thickness not reported
Test direction
1 = fiber direction; 2 = in-plane transverse direction; 12 = in-plane shear
Processing route
prepreg tape cured into an aircraft laminate; detailed layup and cure are not source-qualified by this card
Temperature range
The table does not identify test or model temperature; no temperature extrapolation is allowed.
Notes
This card transcribes the T300/913C tape parameters that Raju et al. report from the 1998 World-Wide Failure Exercise for a NASA progressive-failure model. The NASA paper does not present these values as NASA measurements, qualification allowables, batch statistics or supplier guarantees. It identifies tape versus fabric, but does not state ply thickness, fiber volume fraction, resin content, cure cycle, moisture condition or test temperature. Table 1 also prints G_IC as 220 kJ/m^2, a unit/value combination that appears physically suspect; PropLib excludes it rather than silently changing the source.
