The response of glass–epoxy composites to repeated impact for various impact energies ranging from 5 to 15 J was investigated. Specimens with two different stacking sequences were studied; [0/90/0/90]S and [0/90/+45/−45]S. In addition to the room temperature, impact tests were also performed at −40°C environmental test temperature for impact energy of 15 J. Contact force‐deflection and energy‐time curves at each test and the number of impacts to failure (Nf) were obtained for each experiment. Compression after impact (CAI) tests were also conducted to determine the residual load carrying capacity of the damaged specimens. POLYM. COMPOS., 2009.
