Abstract [eng] The impact response of woven carbon/epoxy and E-Glass / epoxy composite systems on vehicle body structures has been investigated – by considering energy profile diagrams and force-displacement curves. For low-velocity impact, dropweight impact tests performed by EADS (European Aeronautic Defense and Space Company) Corporate Research Center Germany have been carried out. Because the total amount of energy introduced to a composite specimen and the energy absorbed by the composite specimen through the impact event are important parameters to assess impact response of the composite structures they are considered in this paper. It is established that by increasing the impact energy elastic deformation of woven E-glass / epoxy composite systems is 1.5 times higher than that of carbon / epoxy composite systems that defines the formation of smaller areas of damage.
