Exploratory investigation of two resin-matrix composites subjected to arc-tunnel heatingFlexture and short beam shear specimens of a graphite epoxy and a graphite polymimide composite material were tested in an arc tunnel environment. The materials were subjected to seven heating rates from 12.5 to 308 kW/sw m for test times from 5 to 1000 seconds. The temperature response of the specimens was measured and the strength degradation caused by the various heating environments was determined.
