The low velocity impact response of hybrid epoxy composites reinforced with plain weave fabrics, ply orientation at various angles and filled stratified matrix was analyzed in this study. The hybrid epoxy composites were subjected to impact tests at 45J and 90J of energy levels with drop weight impact machine. The damaged areas were investigated by visual inspection of impacted and non-impacted surfaces and by tomographic images. It was found that the replacement of certain carbon inner plies with glass ones and the modification of fiber orientation improved the damage resistance of the hybrid composites with aramid outer layers subjected to impact loading at 45J of energy level.

In this study, the effect of low velocity impact  response of Kevlar/carbon hybrid composite has been investigated. Then the impacted specimens were subjected to compression and buckling tests at room temperature experimentally. The height, width and thickness of the specimens are 150, 100 and 2.1 mm, respectively. Impact tests have been performed under different impact energy levels by using low velocity impact testing machine. Compression and buckling tests were conducted by Shimadzu testing machine. According to obtained results, the damage increases by increasing the impact energy level in the subjected specimens to impact test.  Compression strength value is higher about 3  times than buckling strength value.

Composites have gained wide use in structural applications; however, they are sensitive to impact damage. The use of hybrid composites is an effective way to overcome this deficiency. The effects of various hybrid structures of interlayer and intralayer warp-knitted fabrics with carbon and glass fibers on the low-velocity impact behavior of composite laminates were studied. Drop-weight impact tests were conducted on two types of interlayer, sandwich and intralayer hybrid composite laminates, which were compared with homogenous composite laminates. During low-velocity impact tests, the time histories of impact forces and absorbed energy by laminate were recorded. The failure modes were analyzed using the micro-CT (computed tomography) and C-scan techniques. The results revealed that the hybrid structure played an important role in peak force and the absorbed energy, and that the hybrid interface had an influence on damage modes, whereas the intralayer hybrid composite laminate damage was affected by the impact location. The intralayer hybrid laminate with C:G = 1:1 exhibited better impact resistance compared to the other hybrid structures.
