Abstract
Research progress on the low velocity impact response of continuous fibre reinforced polymer matrix composites was reviewed. The effect of testing methods and the related affecting parameters, such as impactor shape and impact velocity on the impact to composite, was discussed. Major impact-induced damage modes were introduced. Furthermore, the influences of laminate structural parameters, like laminate thickness, layup and stitching, together with the properties of component, such as fibre, resin and fibre/resin interface, preload and environment on impact properties of composite were described. The development direction of future research was put forward on the impact response of fibre reinforced polymer matrix composite.
