Abstract

Plain woven E-glass fibre-reinforced epoxy resin composites have been imaged using X-ray computed tomography. A data-set of 150 cross-sectional slices have been quantified using fractal dimensions. For this data set, the fractal dimension analysis returns a consistent numerical value for each of the slices in the two similar orthogonal planes.
