Thermal residual strains in carbon fibre-reinforced aluminium laminates

The thermal residual strains in various carbon fibre-reinforced aluminium laminates (carall), which were generated during cooling from the curing temperature, have been evaluated by both experimental methods and theoretical analysis. The experimental methods used include the deflection of an asymmetric laminate and the yield point shift of the aluminium alloy in the carall laminate. The theoretical calculation performed was based on the classical lamination theory. Residual strains determined by each experimental method and by theoretical calculation show good agreement. In addition, the possible errors associated with each method were carefully assessed and shown to be acceptable. For carall laminates reinforced with unidirectional carbon fibres, the thermal residual stress in the aluminium layer was found to be roughly proportional to the volume fraction of the carbon/epoxy layer.     

Hybrid carbon fiber composite lattice truss structures

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite sandwich panels with hybrid foam filled CFRP pyramidal lattice cores have been assembled from linear carbon fiber braids and Divinycell H250 polymer foam trapezoids. These have been stitched to 3D woven carbon fiber face sheets and infused with an epoxy resin using a vacuum assisted resin transfer molding process. Sandwich panels with carbon fiber composite truss volumes of 1.5–17.5% of the core volume have been fabricated, and the through-thickness compressive strength and modulus measured, and compared with micromechanical models that establish the relationships between the mechanical properties of the core, its topology and the mechanical properties of the truss and foam. The through thickness modulus and strength of the hybrid cores is found to increase with increasing truss core volume fraction. However, the lattice strength saturates at high CFRP truss volume fraction as the proportion of the truss material contained in the nodes increases. The use of linear carbon fiber braids is shown to facilitate the simpler fabrication of hybrid CFRP structures compared to previously described approaches. Their specific strength, moduli and energy absorption is found to be comparable to those made by alternative approaches.     

Microscopic damage behavior in carbon fiber reinforced plastic laminates for a high accuracy antenna in a satellite under cyclic thermal loading

For a high accuracy antenna in next radio astronomy satellite, a candidate material is carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP), because negative longitudinal coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) for unidirectional CFRP enables a laminate with 0 CTE through appropriate laminate design. This enables high structural accuracy under large temperature fluctuation like space. On the other hand, when the laminate is subjected to thermal cycles, cyclic thermal stress occurs and causes microscopic damages. In this study, we characterized damage progress in CFRP laminates and resultant variation in mechanical properties under cyclic thermal loading. Three types of matrices, such as polycyanate ester, polyimide and epoxy resin were used to prepare CFRP laminates. Specimens were subjected to thermal cycles from ?197°C to 120°C. The test was periodically stopped for surface observation and flexural loading. Transverse cracks in 90° plies accumulated with thermal cycles, whereas flexural modulus remained constant. We also numerically evaluated temperature gradient and resultant thermal stress distribution during cooling by finite element analysis. The result indicates higher transverse stress appeared in the surface of the specimen and saturated to constant value which corresponded with the value calculated based on classical lamination theory.

Investigation of fatigue crack growth rate in CARALL,ARALL and GLARE

Fibre metal laminates (FMLs) are being used to manufacture many structural components in aerospace industry because of their very high strength to weight ratios, yet the exact model for estimating fatigue crack propagation in FMLs cannot be developed because of many variable parameters affecting it. In this research, tensile strength, fatigue life and fracture toughness values of 2/1 configuration carbon reinforced aluminium laminate (CARALL), aramid reinforced aluminium laminate and glass laminate aluminium reinforced epoxy specimens have been investigated. Mechanical, chemical and electrochemical surface treatments were applied to AA 1050 face sheets to improve the adhesive properties of the laminates. The specimens were prepared using vacuum assisted resin transfer moulding technique and were cut to desired shapes. Fatigue tests were conducted on centre notched specimens according to ASTM Standard E399. Real time material data and properties of adhesive were used in definition of numerical simulation model to obtain the values of stress intensity factor at different crack lengths. It was observed that CARALL shows very superior tensile and fatigue strength because of stress distribution during failure. Numerical simulation model developed in this research accurately predicts fracture toughness of aramid reinforced aluminium laminate, CARALL and glass laminate aluminium reinforced epoxy with less than 2% error. An empirical analytical model using experimental data obtained during research was developed which accurately predicts the trend of FMLs fatigue life.     

A strategy for improving mechanical properties of a fiber reinforced epoxy composite using functionalized carbon nanotubes

Carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composite laminates are studied for improvements in quasi static strength and stiffness and tension-tension fatigue cycling at stress-ratio (R-ratio) = +0.1 through strategically incorporating amine functionalized single wall carbon nanotubes (a-SWCNTs) at the fiber/fabric-matrix interfaces over the laminate cross-section. In a comparison to composite laminate material without carbon nanotube reinforcements there are modest improvements in the mechanical properties of strength and stiffness; but, a potentially significant increase is demonstrated for the long-term fatigue life of these functionalized nanotube reinforced composite materials. These results are compared with previous research on the cyclic life of this carbon fiber epoxy composite laminate system reinforced similarly with side wall fluorine functionalized industrial grade carbon nanotubes. Optical and scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectrometry are used to confirm the effectiveness of this strategy for the improvements in strength, stiffness and fatigue life of composite laminate materials using functionalized carbon nanotubes.     

Vinylon Reinforced Aluminium Laminate

A new kind of superhybrid composite material,vinylon reinforced aluminium laminate (VIRALL),hasbeen developed by laminating the vinylon/epoxy prepreg layers and the aluminium alloy sheetsalternatively.The mechanical properties of VIRALL laminate have been tested and the results are dis-cussed in terms of laws of mixtures.About a 24% increase in tensile strength and a 36%decrease intensile modulus to that of the corresponding aluminium were found,which kept good agreementwith the laws of mixtures.Compared with the corresponding aluminium,VIRALL has lighter densityand lower price.VIRALL is hoped to be a partial substitute for the civil aluminium alloy in the future.
