ABSTRACTMixture models were studied in an effort to predict the microwave frequency permittivities of unidirectional-fiber-reinforced thermoplastic-matrix composite materials as a function of fiber volume fraction, fiber orientation relative to the electric field, and temperature. The permittivities of the constituent fiber and plastic materials were measured using a resonant cavity perturbation technique at 9.4 GHz and at 2.45 GHz. The permittivities of the composite specimens were measured using a reflection cavity technique at 9.4 GHz and at 2.45 GHz. Simple “rule-of-mixtures” models that use the fiber and plastic permittivities have been found to approximate the complex dielectric properties of the composite for varied fiber volume fractions. The permittivities of oriented composites were modeled using a tensor rotation procedure. Composite permittivities were modeled with temperature up to the glass transition temperature of the thermoplastic matrix.

This paper studies that dynamic load affects mechanical properties of materials about composite tail ore different replacement rate, different PVA fiber volume content and different plate thickness. The phenomenon of the tests and results showed that:1) PVA tailings cement-based composite materials has low damage, strong integrity and strong energy dissipation under dynamic loading. 2) When the volume content is 2%, material resistance effect is best. 3) The study proves that 30 mm plate have good ductility and Size effect influence the material mechanics performance. 4) PVA tailings cement-based composite materials under dynamic loads ,as tailings content increases the performance indicators reduced. So the engineering applications recommended replacement rate of the tailings is 50%.

Manufacturing Stage

Relentless progress has been made on composite materials, their manufacturing processes and their structural design in past few decades. Nevertheless, the approval of composite materials in all engineering disciplines is constrained due to its susceptibility to various kinds of defects during manufacturing stage viz porosity, foreign body inclusion, incorrect fiber volume, bonding defect, fiber misalignment, ply misalignment, incorrect curing cycle, wavy fiber, ply cracking, delamination, fiber microstructural defects etc. Hence there was a requirement of techniques to somehow overcome these defects during the service life of composites being used in various structures and equipment. This promising field of research has made great progress over the past several years, but many procedural encounters are still to be overcome, and there exists a great need for focused research to address several areas of concern. On the other hand, nature has materials that have curing potential and repair strategies ensuring their survival. Sustained development in the field will produce new curing chemistries that possess greater stability, faster kinetics. Tailor-made placement of curing agents is dynamic research subject at the cutting edge of self-curing. New bio-imitative curing agents are closely connected to vascular networks. The purpose of this technical paper is to sort the methodology in line with ongoing research efforts in composites. A perspective on current and future self-curing approaches using this biomimetic technique is offered.

Warp Knitted Fabric

The purposes of stitching multi-axial warp knitted fabric preform prior to the fabrication of the composite materials by resin-transfer molding technique are to improve the resistance to delamination and to increase the out-of-plane properties of the composite materials for structural integrity. The influence of the through-the-thickness stitching on the elastic properties and behaviors of the multi-axial warp knit fabric composites is studied. An analytical model based on the representative volume is proposed to predict the elastic properties of the stitched multi-axial warp knit fabric composite materials. The fiber volume ratios determined by geometric parameters set by the representative volume and elastic behaviors of the in-situ constituent materials are used for the predictions. The crucial step in the analysis is to correlate the averaged stress states in the constituents by adopting bridging matrix. The predicted results are compared with the experimental results. It is found that the predicted results are in reasonably good agreement with the experimental results.

Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites are becoming suitable and substantial materials in the repair and replacement of conventional metallic materials because of their high strength and stiffness. These composites undergo various types of static and fatigue loads during service. One of the major tests that conventional and composite materials have to experience is fatigue test. It refers to the testing for the cyclic behavior of materials. Composite materials are different from metals, as they indicate a distinct behavior under fatigue loading. The fatigue damage and failure mechanisms are more intricate in composite materials than in metals in which a crack initiates and propagates up to fracture. In composite materials, several micro-cracks initiate at the primary stage of the fatigue growth, resulting in the initiation of various types of fatigue damage. Fiber volume fraction is an important parameter to describe a composite laminate. The fatigue strength increases with the increase of the fiber volume fraction to a certain level and then decreases because of the lack of enough resin to grip the fibers. The fatigue behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer composites depends on various factors, e.g., constituent materials, manufacturing process, hysteresis heating, fiber orientation, type of loading, interface properties, frequency, mean stress, environment. This review paper explores the effects of various parameters like fiber type, fiber orientation, fiber volume fraction, etc. on the fatigue behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer composites.

Bending Load

In this paper, a kind of composite laminates whose reinforcement is four-layer biaxial weft knitted (FBWK)fabric made of carbon fiber as inserted yarns has been made. The composite laminates have been impregnated with epoxy resin via resin transfer molding (RTM) technique. The samples of the experiments have been made from the composite laminates. The bending properties of the FBWK fabric reinforced composite materials with different fiber volume fraction have been investigated. The results show that the bending strength of this kind of composites increases with the fiber volume fraction increasing. The bending strength of FBWK reinforced composites with fiber volume fraction of 52% can reach 695.86 MPa. And the relationship between bending load and deflection is obviously linear.
