Standard mechanical testing was carried out on glass woven-epoxy composite material with different structures (two specific weights of reinforcement, 210 g/m2 and 550 g/m2) and orientations (0¡ã/90¡ã and ¡À45¡ã). Micromechanical analysis of failure was performed on a stereo microscope and SEM in order to determine real models and mechanisms of crack. %K glass woven-epoxy composite material %K tension test %K low temperature test %K micromechanical analysis %U http://www.doiserbia.nb.rs/img/doi/1450-7188/2005/1450-71880536123P.pdf
