Fibre-reinforced polymer composites (FRPs) have continuously been utilised for
many engineering applications due to their outstanding mechanical properties and
lightweight. However, a decrease in their mechanical performance, primarily due to
processing challenges resulting in waviness and induced internal residual stresses,
may result in failure. Therefore, research to mitigate processing challenges,
particularly process-induced residual stresses in composite materials, has become
increasingly vital. One promising approach involves fibre prestressing, which
involves the application of a controlled load to the fibre before or throughout the
curing cycle of the composite. The technique aims to induce compressive strength
to the material. This counteracts the tensile residual stresses and reduces fibre
waviness, thus offering a cost-effective approach to improving the mechanical
properties of composite structures without necessarily increasing the mass or
dimension of the material.
