Carbon-fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRPs) are the standard lightweight composite material for structural applications in aviation. The addition of metallic fibers to CFRPs to form metal/carbon-fiber hybrid composites (MCFRPs) has been shown to improve the elastic and plastic properties and to enable a non-destructive method for structural health monitoring over the material's service life. In this paper, the results from the fatigue experiments on these hybrid composites at −55, 25 and 120 °C are discussed. Multidirectional CFRP and MCFRP laminates, fabricated using the autoclave method, were tested and compared under different fatigue loading conditions, while being simultaneously monitored for temperature and electrical resistance. Magnetic phase measurements were additionally carried out for the chosen metastable austenitic steel fibers in the MCFRPs. The results show that the improved ductility of the hybrid composite due to the presence of the steel fibers leads to better performance under fatigue loads and a less-brittle failure behavior. Based on the chemical composition of the metastable austenitic steel fibers, a temperature and plastic deformation-dependent phase transformation was observed, which could potentially lead to a method for non-destructive structural health monitoring of the hybrid composite over its service life.
