Hybrid composites based on aramid and basalt woven fabrics: Impact damage modes and residual flexural properties

The low-velocity impact behaviour of hybrid laminates reinforced with woven aramid and basalt fabrics and manufactured by resin transfer moulding was studied. Specimens with different stacking sequences were tested at three different energies, namely 5, 12.5 and 25 J. Residual post-impact properties of the different configurations of aramid/basalt hybrid laminates were characterized by quasi static four point bending tests. Post-impact flexural tests have been monitored using acoustic emission in order to get further information on failure mechanisms. Results indicate that hybrid laminates with intercalated configuration (alternating sequence of basalt and aramid fabrics) have better impact energy absorption capability and enhanced damage tolerance with respect to the all-aramid laminates, while basalt and hybrid laminates with sandwich-like configuration (seven basalt fabric layers at the centre of the laminate as core and three aramid fabric layers for each side of the composite as skins) present the most favourable flexural behaviour.     

Impact and subsequent fatigue damage growth in carbon fibre laminates

The influence of the ply stacking sequence on the impact resistance and subsequent O-tension fatigue performance of carbon fibre laminates has been investigated. Drop-weight impact tests were conducted on a range of 16 ply carbon fibre laminates with either all non-woven plies or mixtures of woven and non-woven plies. Damaged coupons were tested in O-tension fatigue for up to 10⁶ cycles, scanned using an ultrasonic probe and then loaded in tension until failure.The impact resistance and subsequent fatigue performance have been found to be sensitive to the ply stacking sequence. The non-woven composites showed a marked sensitivity to impact loading, but increases in residual static strength were noted after cycling. The inclusion of a woven fabric served to improve the impact resistance of the laminates. Fatigue cycling resulted in considerably improved residual static strengths; by 10⁶ cycles any effect of the impact damage had been removed.     

Macroscale assessment of low-velocity impact on hybrid composite laminates

Composites are usually brittle materials and have low impact properties. Structural dimensions, stacking sequence, ply materials, ply thicknesses and ply angles are standard variables that influence composite‘s performance against impact loads. Stacking sequence in hybrid laminates affects the failure and impact resistance. Failure mechanisms at the low-velocity impact of a rigid object in hybrid laminates are complex, and the subsurface damage in a composite laminate cannot be detected directly. However, various simulation platforms make it easy to see the impact damage between the plies of laminate. This paper numerically investigated the effect of stack sequence and hybridization of two fiber types against low-velocity impact. The current study adopted four-layer composite laminates of carbon and glass fiber layers with a stacking plan [C/C/C/C], [C/G/C/G] and [G/C/G/C], having lay-up angles as [0°/45°/−45°/90°]. Keeping the impactor mass and the incident velocity constant, the laminates were subjected to low-velocity impact. The damage contours for a failure mode were recorded and compared at the ply level. The numerical study resulted in impact imitations showing comparisons of the damage contours using Hashin failure criteria. Hybrid laminates display better performance in absorbing impact energies; however, hybrid laminates experienced more subsurface damage due to more impact energy absorption.     

Impact resistance and energy absorption mechanisms in hybrid composites

The response of hybrid composites to low-velocity impact loading has been investigated. The energy absorbing mechanisms of laminates containing various fibers were studied primarily by means of the instrumented falling dart impact testing technique. Static indentation tests and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were also employed to assist in the identification of failure mechanisms. The composites containing polyethylene (PE) fibers, which were of high strength and high ductility, were found to be effective in both dissipating impact energy and resisting through penetration. Polyester (PET) fiber reinforced epoxy also exhibited superior impact characteristics even though the PET fabric layers without epoxy did not have good modulus or ductility. Good energy absorbing capability was also observed in epoxy reinforced with woven fabrics made of high-performance Nylon fibers. Nylon, PE and PET fibers were found to enhance the impact resistance of graphite fiber composites. Upon impact loading, the composites containing either PE or PET fibers in general exhibited a great degree of flexural plastic deformation and some level of delamination, thereby dissipating a significant amount of strain energy. Hybrids containing Nylon fabric showed analogous behavior, but to a lesser degree. The stacking sequence in hybrid laminates was found to play a critical role in controlling plastic deformation and delamination. This implies that the stacking sequence is a major factor governing the overall energy sorbing capability of the hybrid structure. The penetration resistance of hybrid composites appeared to be dictated by the toughness (strength plus ductility) of their constituent fibers. The fiber toughness must be measured under high strain rate conditions.     

The mechanical properties of non-crimped fabric-based composites

The mechanical properties of composites prepared from two types of non-crimped fabric (NCF), namely biaxial, ±45° and quadriaxial with a 0°, ±45°, 90°, −45° ply sequence, are examined as a function of fabric weight and compared with those of alternative composite forms. In general, the properties of NCF laminates decrease slightly as the areal weight of the fabric increases. Laminates produced from biaxial fabrics exhibit superior properties for a given volume fraction of reinforcement than do laminates produced using woven rovings or continuous fibre prepregs, while quadriaxial NCF laminates have equivalent properties to woven roving laminates at certain orientations but, unlike woven roving laminates, retain their properties when rotated through 45°. Biaxial NCFS loaded at 45° to the fibre and quadriaxial fabrics produce composites with superior properties to those predicted using finite element and laminate analysis for idealized laminates based on the same materials.     

Behaviour of woven hybrid basalt-carbon/epoxy composites subjected to laser shock wave testing: Preliminary results

This study addresses the effect of basalt fibre hybridization on the damage tolerance of carbon/epoxy laminates subjected to laser shock wave tests. Interply hybrid specimens with two different stacking sequences (sandwich-like and intercalated) were tested at different laser intensities and residual post-shock properties of the different configurations have been characterized by quasi-static three point bending tests monitored by acoustic emission. Results indicate that the best compromise in terms of both quasi-static properties (2% reduction in flexural strength compared to all carbon laminates) and damage tolerance appears to be the sandwich-like structure with basalt fibre skins. In particular, this configuration exhibited the highest damage tolerance among the hybrids, with a percent decrease in flexural strength of about 5% compared to 15% in the case of all carbon laminates. Damage induced by laser shock testing in carbon-basalt woven fabric/epoxy composites is mainly inter-ply delamination. This study also highlights the tougher behaviour of basalt plies in response to a sudden application of load compared to carbon layers with a favourable hybridization effect.     

Investigation of the mechanical behavior and vibration characteristics of thin walled glass/carbon hybrid composite beams under a fixed-free boundary condition

In the present work, woven fabric glass laminate is modified by interplying high modulus carbon fabric layers for improving the stiffness to weight ratio to enable good performance in dynamic conditions. The glass, carbon, and hybrid of glass/carbon laminates were fabricated with two different stacking sequences by hand layup method and tested for evaluating the mechanical properties with considerable trials. The vibration characteristics of composite beams were experimentally studied by impulse excitation techniques under fixed-free boundary conditions. The stacking sequence of beams influences the mechanical properties and vibration characteristics. The modal response of tested samples are compared and discussed.
