Inelastic and strength properties of AS4/PEEK composites were characterized with respect to temperature variation by using a one-parameter orthotropic plasticity model and a one-parameter failure criterion. Simple uniaxial off-axis tension tests were performed on coupon specimens of unidirectional AS4/PEEK thermoplastic composite at various temperatures. To avoid the complication caused by the extension-shear coupling effect in off-axis testing, new tabs were designed and used on the test specimens. Experimental results showed that the nonlinear behavior of constitutive relations and the strength can be characterized quite well using the one-parameter plasticity model and the failure criterion, respectively.
