Abstract
After dynamic tests, the Al matrix was chemically removed from the heavily deformed samples to reveal the mode of deformation of the W fibers: microbuckling and kinking in the axial direction. These mechanisms initiated the fracture of the composite samples followed by sample bulging due to plastic flow of the Al matrix and the subsequent fracture of W fibers in the hoop direction.
