碳纤维编织复合材料板材热冲压成形的实验和模拟研究(英文)

提出一种新型的复合材料成形工艺,即热冲压成形,来直接成形复合材料。为了研究复合材料板的成形行为,分析了成形温度对零件的影响,进行了热弯曲和热拉深实验。实验结果表明,编织复合材料板的锁止角为30°,在成形过程中,变形载荷一般小于5 N,并且变形载荷随着温度的升高而降低。成形碳纤维复合材料板的最佳温度是170°C。采用有限元分析软件ABAQUS对模具的温度场分布和复合材料板的变形进行了数值模拟。为了研究碳纤维在成形过程中的运动,采用两节点的三维Truss单元T2D3对纤维进行网格剖分,模拟结果与试验结果相吻合。

Experimental and simulation research on thermal stamping of carbon fiber composite sheet

To improve the manufacture efficiency and promote the application of composites in the automobile industry, a new composite forming method, thermal stamping, was discussed to form composite parts directly. Experiments on two typical stamping processes, thermal bending and thermal deep drawing, were conducted to investigate the forming behavior of composite sheets and analyze the influence of forming temperature on the formed composite part. Experimental results show that the locking angle for woven composite is about 30°. The bending load is smaller than 5 N in the stamping process and decreases with the increase of temperature. The optimal temperature to form the carbon fiber composite is 170 ℃. The die temperature distribution and the deformation of composite sheet were simulated by FEA software ABAQUS. To investigate the fiber movement of carbon woven fabric during stamping, the two-node three-dimension linear Truss unit T2D3 was chosen as the fiber element. The simulation results have a good agreement to the experimental results.
