Summary:A composite structure formed of a fiber reinforced composite material may include a plurality of fiber layers and a carbon matrix surrounding the plurality of fiber layers. A first fiber layer of the plurality of fiber layers may include a carbon fiber tow. A second fiber layer of the plurality of fiber layers may include a non-carbon fiber tow. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the non-carbon fiber tow is greater than the coefficient of thermal expansion of the carbon fiber tow.
