Is it reasonable that the strain-to-failure of single carbon fibers would be greater than the strain-to-failure of woven carbon/epoxy composites?

The same carbon fibers were used in mechanical testing for both single fiber tension and composite tension. Test results suggest that the fibers have a higher strain-to-failure than the woven...

For single-fiber tensile testing of carbon fibers, should multiple gage lengths be tested? Or is a single gage length sufficient?

Weibull statistics will be used to determine the characteristic strengths and Weibull moduli of the fibers. In the literature, there are studies that consider only one gage length, but there are...
