压缩预应力对复合材料层板抗冲击损伤性能的影响

为确定压缩预应力对复合材料层板抗冲击损伤性能的影响,首先对不同压缩预应力下的碳纤维/双马树脂CCF300/5428层板进行了低速冲击和准静态压痕试验,然后通过热揭层和冲击后压缩试验分别得到了层板分层面积和剩余强度。结果表明:压缩预应力会大幅降低层板的接触刚度和弯曲刚度,从而导致相同冲击能量下层板凹坑深度和背部基体开裂长度增大;对于准静态压痕过程和相同冲击能量下的冲击过程,分层起始载荷和峰值载荷均随压缩预应力的增大而减小;在相同冲击能量下,随着压缩预应力的增大,层板内部分层总面积及冲击能量吸收比不断增大,剩余压缩强度不断降低。因此,压缩预应力会降低复合材料层板的冲击损伤阻抗,对损伤容限性能不利,在对承受压缩载荷结构的试验验证过程中应考虑压缩预应力对抗冲击损伤性能的影响。

Effect of fiber orientation on energy absorption characteristics of glass cloth/epoxy composite tubes under axial quasi-static and impact crushing condition

The collapse characteristics and energy absorption capability of composite tubes made of 759/5224 woven glass cloth/epoxy with different fiber orientations were studied in the present article under axial quasi-static and impact crushing condition. The effects of fiber orientation and loading condition on the crushing modes and energy absorption capability were discussed in detail. The fiber orientation could be found to have significant influences on energy absorption performance. Based on results, the energy absorption capability could be improved by selecting proper fiber orientation. The energy absorption capability in impact crushing tests could be found to be slightly lower than that in quasi-static crushing tests.     

Experimental investigation into dynamic axial impact responses of double hat shaped CFRP tubes

This paper aims to explore the dynamic responses and crashing characteristics of double hat shaped tubes made of weave carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP). Experimental investigations were carried out into three different thicknesses and lengths of the composite tubes fabricated by the bladder molding process. Three distinct failure modes, classified as progressive end crushing, mid-length collapse and overlap opening, were observed in the dynamic crushing tests. Unlike continuous splaying fronds observed in the quasi-static tests, dynamic tests exhibited a number of fragment segments in the progressive end crushing mode. It is shown that the ply number was a critical parameter affecting the failure mode and energy absorption capability. The increase in ply number led to increases in the peak load and specific energy absorption (SEA); whereas the tubal length seemed insensitive to energy absorption capability. Compared to the quasi-static cases, the dynamic impact tests resulted in the higher peak load (increased from 46 % to 125 %) and lower SEA (reduced from 21 % to 33 %) for the tested tubes.     

Crushing response of foam-filled conical tubes under quasi-static axial loading

Foam-filled thin-walled tubes are considered to be desirable energy absorbers under axial loading due to their higher energy absorption compared with empty tubes. This paper treats the axial crushing and energy absorption response of foam-filled conical tubes under quasi-static axial loading, using non-linear finite element models. Influence of important parameters such as wall thickness, semi-apical angle and density of foam filler was investigated and the results highlight the advantages of using foam-filled conical tubes as energy absorber. Results also indicate that the crush and energy absorption performances of conical tubes are significantly enhanced by foam filling. The primary outcome of the study is new research information and development of empirical relations which will facilitate the design of foam-filled conical tubes as energy absorbers in impact applications.

Crushing and energy absorption performance of different geometrical shapes of small-scale glass/polyester composite tubes under quasi-static loading conditions

This paper presents the quasi-static crushing performance of nine different geometrical shapes of small-scale composite tubes. The idea is to understand the effect of geometry, dimension and triggering mechanism on the progressive deformation of small-scale composite tubes. Different geometrical shapes of the composite tubes have been manufactured by hand lay-up technique using uni-directional E-glass fabric (with single and double plies) and polyester resin. Dedicated quasi-static tests (144 tests) have been conducted for all nine geometrical shapes with different t/D (thickness–diameter) ratios and two triggering profiles (45° chamfering and tulip pattern with an included angle of 90°). From this unique study, it was found that the crushing characteristics and the corresponding energy absorption of the special geometrical shapes are better than the standard geometrical shapes such as square and hexagonal cross sections. Furthermore, the tulip triggering attributed to a lower peak crush load followed by a steady mean crush load compared to the 45° chamfering triggering profile which resulted into a higher energy absorption in most of the geometrical shapes of the composite tubes.

Axial crushing of thin-walled high-strength steel sections

Quasi-static and dynamic axial crushing tests were performed on thin-walled square tubes and spot-welded top-hat sections made of high-strength steel grade DP800. The dynamic tests were conducted at velocities up to 15 m/s with an impacting mass of 600 kg in order to assess the crush behaviour, the deformation force and the energy absorption. Typical collapse modes developed in the sections and the associated energy absorbing characteristics were examined and compared with previous studies on high-strength steel. A significant difference was observed between the quasi-static and the dynamic crushing tests in terms of the deformation force and impact energy absorption. As this difference is attributed to strain-rate and inertia effects, material tensile tests at elevated strain rates have been carried out. A comparison is made with analytical methods and the response was under-predicted. In addition, numerical simulations of the axial crushing of the thin-walled sections were performed and comparisons with the experimental results were satisfactory. The validated numerical model was used to study the energy absorption capacity of thin-walled sections with variations in the yield strength, sheet thickness, flange width and spot-weld spacing. Structural effectiveness differences have been captured through simulations between spot-welded top-hat sections made of mild steel and high-strength steel.     

Numerical Study on Hybrid Tubes Subjected to Static and Dynamic Loading

The commercial finite element program LS-DYNA was employed to evaluate the response and energy absorbing capacity of cylindrical metal tubes that are externally wrapped with composite. The numerical simulation elucidated the crushing behaviors of these tubes under both quasi-static compression and axial dynamic impact loading. The effects of composite wall thickness, loading conditions and fiber ply orientation were examined. The stress–strain curves under different strain rates were used to determine the dynamic impact of strain rate effects on the metal. The results were compared with those of a simplified analytical model and the mean crushing force thus predicted agreed closely with the numerical simulations. The numerical results demonstrate that a wrapped composite can be utilized effectively to enhance the crushing characteristics and energy absorbing capacity of the tubes. Increasing the thickness of the composite increases the mean force and the specific energy absorption under both static and dynamic crushing. The ply pattern affects the energy absorption capacity and the failure mode of the metal tube and the composite material property is also significant in determining energy absorption efficiency.     

Energy absorption and load carrying capability of woven natural silk epoxy–triggered composite tubes

This study investigated the energy absorption response and load carrying capability of woven natural silk/epoxy–triggered composite rectangular tubes subjected to an axial quasi-static crushing test. The rectangular composite tubes were prepared by hand lay-up technique. The tubes consisted of 12, 24, and 30 layers of natural woven silk/epoxy laminate and were 50, 80, and 120 mm long. The crashworthiness of the tubes was evaluated by measuring the specific energy absorption in quasi-static axial compression. Specific energy absorption was obtained from the load–displacement curve during testing. The failure mode of the tubes was analyzed from high resolution photographs obtained. Overall, the tube with 50 mm length and 30 layers showed the best crashworthiness among the tubes. The failure morphology showed that the specimens failed in two distinct modes: local and mid-length buckling. The triggered composite tubes exhibited progressive failure.
