In Liquid Composite Molding (LCM) processes, a fibrous reinforcement preform is placed or draped over a mold surface, the mold is closed and a resin is either injected under pressure or infused under vacuum to cover all the spaces in between the fibers of the preform to create a composite part. LCM is used in a variety of manufacturing applications, from the aerospace to the medical industries. In this manufacturing process, the properties of the fibrous reinforcement inside the closed mold is of great concern. Preform structure, volume fraction, and permeability all influence the processing characteristics and final part integrity. When preform fabrics are draped over a mold surface, the geometry and characteristics of both the bulk fabric and fiber tow bundles change as the fabric shears to conform to the mold curvature. Numerical simulations can predict resin flow in dual scale fabrics in which one can separately track the filling of the fiber tows in addition to flow of resin within the bulk fabric. The effect of the deformation of the bulk fabric due to draping over the tool surface has been previously addressed by accounting for the change in fiber volume fraction and permeability during the filling of a mold. In this work, we investigate the effect of shearing of the fiber tows in addition to bulk deformation during the dual scale filling. We model the influence of change in fiber tow characteristics due to draping and deformation on mold filling and compare it with the results when the fiber tow deformation effect is ignored. Model experiments are designed and conducted with a dual scale fabric to characterize the change in permeability of fiber tow with deformation angle. Simulations which account for dual scale shear demonstrate that the tow saturation rate is affected, requiring longer fill times, or higher pressures to completely saturate fiber tows in areas of a mold with high local shear. This should prove useful in design of components for applications in which it is imperative to ensure that there are no unfilled fiber tows in the final fabricated component. 相似文献

Moisture transporting in fiber assembly is one of the critical factors affecting physiological comfort. In this study, we
investigated at the capillary flow in complex geometries representative of the void spaces formed between fibers in shaped
polymer fiber bundles. Dynamic process of liquid creeping in capillary is analyzed based on Reed and Wilson vertical wicking
model. Critical equivalent radius values of capillary tubes in polymer fiber assembly are discussed here. In the cases of
round, criss-cross and triangle shape fiber, Reed and Wilson model is integrated with shaped fiber bundle mathematical simulation
model (MFB) to calculate the dynamic curve of liquid arising. Instantaneous wicking velocity, wicking height, wicking flux,
and characters are compared to figure out that the wicking effect of shaped polymer fiber is quite better than normal round
one. 相似文献

Simulation of the reinforcement compaction and resin flow during the complete resin infusion process
Resin infusion (a.k.a. VARTM) is one of the LCM processes, for which liquid resin is drawn into dry reinforcements. Significant cavity thickness changes occur during processing, due to the flexibility of the vacuum bag used as one side of the tool, and the complex stress balance within the laminate. While the magnitude of thickness change is often small, the influence is significant on reinforcement properties. Changes in permeability during filling and post-filling have the potential to significantly affect the process. To simulate this behaviour, it is important to accurately model compaction and unloading of reinforcement in dry and wet states. A series of tests were completed to determine compaction behaviour of an isotropic glass fibre mat. From these tests several non-linear elastic compaction models have been determined, and applied within a resin infusion simulation which addresses pre-filling, filling and post-filling. This simulation was then used to assess different post-filling strategies. 相似文献

Fatigue of reinforced ceramics at elevated temperatures was numerically evaluated with a fiber dominated, power-law creep model. A Monte Carlo simulation of fiber creep in a uniaxially loaded tow was used to examine the influence of fiber radius, elastic modulus, and strength on creep respose. The simulation permitted variation of both the average magnitude and dispersion of fiber characteristics while maintaining constant power-law creep parameters. A linear increase in creep life was predicted for an increase in mean fiber radius, and a linear decrease in creep life was predicted for an increase in the standard deviation of fiber radii. A linear increase in creep life was predicted for both an increase in mean fiber elastic modulus and standard deviation of elastic moduli. Characteristic fiber strength and Weibull modulus were predicted to have a significant effect on creep life of a SiC fiber low. An increase in either the characteristic strength or Weibull modulus was predicted to result in an increase in creep life. 相似文献

This paper presents an approach for modeling high pressure thermo-oxidative conditioning, for an epoxy resin material.A coupled reaction–diffusion chemical “mechanistic” model of thermo-oxidation with classical boundary conditions, successfully applied for samples aged under air at atmospheric pressure but failing at high pressures, has been enhanced by formulating a new nonlinear sorption law, correlated with the results of Elastic Indentation modulus (EIT) measures at 5 bars of pure oxygen, and validated for pressures up to 8 bars of pure oxygen.The approach allows justifying the employment of the oxygen pressure as a pertinent accelerating parameter for thermo-oxidation degradation: moreover the proposed model can be employed for the design and the optimization of accelerated thermo-oxidation tests. 相似文献

This paper addresses issues of the synergetic dynamic effect of capillary force on the longitudinal impregnation driven by external pressures, especially under vacuum assistance. An apparatus was designed to detect the axial infiltration along unidirectional fiber bundles which were all aligned closely to give a representation of micro-flow channel of inner fiber tows. The external driving pressures were controlled sufficiently low, 20–60 kPa, on the order of capillary pressures. Based on the analysis of infiltration velocities under different external pressures, dynamic capillary pressures can be determined experimentally. The results showed that capillary pressures, the most important force of microscopic flow through inner fiber yarns, acted as a drag force on the infiltration flow for vacuum assisted penetration into unidirectional fiber bundles. This unique drag effect is very different from traditional unsaturated infiltration, different from the compressed air driving permeation and the theoretical calculated data in this paper. Moreover, values and even signs of the dynamic capillary pressures varied with the fiber fraction of the assemblies as well as the fluid types. Further analysis demonstrated that the function of capillary pressure was closely related to the capillary number (Ca), acting as drag force when Ca larger than a critical value, and as a promotive force with smaller Ca. Consequently, unsaturated permeabilities of the unidirectional fiber bundles were estimated by taking consideration of both dynamic and quasi-static capillary pressures. 相似文献

Unit cell analyses were performed for two-layer unit cell models with different fiber tow phase angles, and multi-field macroelements were used to reduce computer resource requirements. Results indicated that the engineering properties of plain weave textile composites can vary significantly according to the manner in which the layers are stacked. 相似文献

The sensitivity enhancement observed in fluorescence signals when a conventional fiber optical sensor is coupled with a quartz or glass capillary results from the partial reflection of the radiation at the sample/internal wall interface and from the internal reflection of the refracted portion within the capillary wall. Thus, the length and absorbing properties of the capillary as well as the nature of the surrounding medium affect the enhancement significantly. To interpret the dramatic changes in enhancement observed experimentally when the absorbing properties of the capillary were changed, a partial reflective waveguide model is reported. 相似文献

In this review, the phenomenology of hysteresis is discussed, including both empirical and mathematical models, and some examples are presented. The focus lies on soil-moisture hysteresis, where the capillary pressure exhibits different values depending on the initial state of saturation. An historical overview is given of the investigation of this phenomenon, of various empirical models, and also of some mathematical approaches to soil-moisture hysteresis. All these studies are aimed at accurately fitting experimental results—not only the main hysteresis curves but also the inner hysteresis curves that occur upon re-wetting and re-drying. Finally, a comparison is made to another field in which hysteresis appears, the deformation of pseudoelastic bodies such as shape memory alloys. 相似文献

A 24 g aluminum sphere was shot at a sparse array of cylinders with nominal initial projectile velocity of 4 and 5 km/s. Pressure profiles were measured with cased carbon resistor gages at two locations in a projectile impacted water filled cylinder and two of its neighbors on three shots. The pressure maxima were in the 1–13 kbars range. The experiments are modeled with the ALE3D code and several techniques are used to concentrate zoning at places of interest. There is excellent agreement between the measured and calculated pressure profiles for two shots and good agreement for the third. Comparison of the calculated pressure profiles with those from more refined calculations for two shots suggest that we are near convergence with respect to zone size. 相似文献

Modeling pressure relationships of inspired air into the human lung bifurcations through simulations
Parya Aghasafari Israr B.M. Ibrahim 《International Journal for Computational Methods in Engineering Science and Mechanics》2018,19(2):69-81
Applied pressure on human lung wall has great importance on setting up protective ventilatory strategies, therefore, estimating pressure relationships in terms of specific parameters would provide invaluable information specifically during mechanical ventilation (MV). A three-dimensional model from a healthy human lung MRI is analyzed by computational fluid dynamic (CFD), and results for pressure are curve fitted to estimate relationships that associate pressure to breathing time, cross section and generation numbers of intended locations. Among all possible functions, it is observed that exponential and polynomial pressure functions present most accurate results for normal breathing (NB) and MV, respectively. For validation, pressure-location curves from CFD and results from this study are compared and good correlations are found. Also, estimated pressure values are used to calculate pressure drop and airway resistance to the induced air into the lung bifurcations. It is concluded that maximum pressure drop appeared in generation number 2 and medium sized airways show higher resistance to air flow and that resistance decreased as cross sectional area increased through the model. Results from this study are in good agreement with previous studies and provide potentials for further studies on influence of air pressure on human lung tissue and reducing lung injuries during MV. 相似文献

The low velocity impact behavior of E-glass/basalt reinforced hybrid laminates, manufactured by resin transfer moulding technique, was investigated. Specimens prepared with different stacking sequences were tested at three different impact energies, namely 5 J, 12.5 J and 25 J. Residual post-impact mechanical properties of the different configurations were characterized by quasi static four point bending tests. Post-impact flexural tests have been also monitored using acoustic emission in order to get further information on failure mechanisms. Results showed that basalt and hybrid laminates with an intercalated configuration exhibited higher impact energy absorption capacity than glass laminates, and enhanced damage tolerance capability. Conversely, the most favorable flexural behavior was shown by laminates with symmetrical sandwich-like configuration (E-glass fiber fabrics as core and basalt fiber fabrics as skins). 相似文献
