The production and mechanical properties of fiber metal laminates (FMLs) based on 3D printed composites have been investigated in this study. FMLs are structures constituting an alternating arrangement of metal and composite materials that are used in the aerospace sector due to their unique mechanical performance. 3D printing technology in FMLs could allow the production of structures with customized configuration and performance. A series of continuous carbon fiber reinforced composites were printed on a Markforged system and placed between layers of aluminum alloy to manufacture a novel breed of FMLs in this study. These laminates were subjected to tensile, low velocity and high velocity impact tests. The results show that the tensile strength of the FMLs falls between the strength of their constituent materials, while the low and high velocity impact performance of the FMLs is superior to those observed for the plain aluminum and the composite material. This mechanism is related to the energy absorption process displayed by the plastic deformation, and interfacial delamination within the laminates. The present work expects to provide an initial research platform for considering 3D printing in the manufacturing process of hybrid laminates.

The hybridisation of fibre-reinforced plastics is one of the perspective technological methods that make it possible to reduce the sensitivity of polymer composites to stress concentration and increase their damage tolerance. In this case, hybridisation means a combination of different types of reinforcing fibres in one yarn, one layer or one package. In most published papers, the authors investigated the mechanical behaviour of hybrid fibre-reinforced plastic under static loading or low-velocity impact conditions only. At the same time, statically preloaded structures made of composite materials can also be subjected to high-velocity impact. Tensile or compressive preloading affects not only the amount of energy absorbed by the composite but also changes the deformation and fracture pattern. This paper presents the results of the experimental study of the mechanical behaviour of a woven carbon/aramid hybrid composite under tensile preloading and high-velocity impact. Pre-tensioned specimens of homogeneous and hybrid composites were subjected to a high-velocity impact by a steel spherical projectile with the velocities up to 900 m/s. The experimental results showed that the hybrid composite had the lowest sensitivity of the ballistic limit to the tensile preloading.
