The single fiber fragmentation test (SFFT) is a wellknown experimental test, which allows the study of fiber failure in its simplest form [1, 2]. The principle is that a single fiber embedded in a matrix repeatedly breaks until all fragment lengths are within a critical distance. Once the fiber has broken for the first time, successive breakage happens in regions removed from the initial failure, often referred to as polled areas [3]. Acoustic emission (AE) has been extensively used for the detection and localization of fiber breakage during SFFT tests, in carbon [4, 5],Kevlar [6, 7] and glass fiber composites [8, 9].

Abstract

The single fiber fragmentation test (SFFT) is a wellknown experimental test, which allows the study of fiber failure in its simplest form [1, 2]. The principle is that a single fiber embedded in a matrix repeatedly breaks until all fragment lengths are within a critical distance. Once the fiber has broken for the first time, successive breakage happens in regions removed from the initial failure, often referred to as polled areas [3]. Acoustic emission (AE) has been extensively used for the detection and localization of fiber breakage during SFFT tests, in carbon [4, 5],Kevlar [6, 7] and glass fiber composites [8, 9].
