In this report, two sets of experiments are conducted. The first is biaxial testing on cruciform shaped GFRP composite laminates and the second is tensile testing on Arcan test specimens. The biaxial test aims at comparing the axial and transverse stresses under biaxial testing. The samples have dif...
