Abstract Reduction of size and weight are required in a development of machine tools that are mainly used in prototyping purposes. It is generally known, however, that when the reduction of size and weight of the structure were both pursued the machining accuracy can possibly be degraded due to insufficient stiffness. It is important to increase the specific stiffness and thermal stability of a machine tools structure for better machining accuracy. In this study we have applied a sheet of carbon fiber reinforced plastic and a sheet of aluminum honeycomb. A sandwich structure made of both materials and the ribs made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic was proposed. The proposed structure showed the increased specific stiffness and the thermal stability which are suited to the machine tools of high accuracy. We investigated the basic performance of the proposed structure by using several beam-shaped samples, in which the static stiffness and thermal expansion was measured and compared. The inserted ribs in the proposed structure was revealed to be suppressing the thermal expansion of the aluminum honeycomb core. After the basic investigation, a 5-axis machining center with the proposed structure was designed. The mechanical and thermal performance of the structure was tested in the finite element analyses. Finally the machining center was manufactured.

This paper investigates the working performance of reinforcement concrete (RC) beams strengthened by Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) with different anchoring under bending moment, based on the structural stressing state theory. The measured strain values of concrete and Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) sheet are modeled as generalized strain energy density (GSED), to characterize the RC beams’ stressing state. Then the Mann–Kendall (M–K) criterion is applied to distinguish the characteristic loads of structural stressing state from the curve, updating the definition of structural failure load. In addition, for tested specimens with middle anchorage and end anchorage, the torsion applied on the anchoring device and the deformation width of anchoring device are respectively set parameters to analyze their effects on the reinforcement performance of CFRP sheet through comparing the strain distribution pattern of CFRP. Finally, in order to further explore the strain distribution of the cross-section and analyze the stressing-state characteristics of the RC beam, the numerical shape function (NSF) method is proposed to reasonably expand the limited strain data. The research results provide a new angle of view to conduct structural analysis and a reference to the improvement of reinforcement effect of CFRP.

In this article, a micro-heterogeneous material simulation model with carbon fiber and resin phase about laser ablation on carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) is established by Ansys. The ablation process of CFRP by nanosecond ultraviolet laser is simulated, and the mechanism of pulse energy and spot spacing on the heat-affected zone (HAZ) is studied, then the process parameters are optimized with the goal of HAZ size and processing efficiency, and finally the validity of the model is verified by experiments. It is found that the residual gradient and the width of the radial HAZ increase with the increase of the spot spacing, and the width of the axial HAZ decreases slightly with the increase of the spot spacing, which indicates the existence of the optimal spot spacing. Second, the ablation depth increases with the increase of the pulse energy, and the carbon fiber retains a relatively complete degree of exposure when the pulse energy is low, which has a certain guiding significance for the cleaning and bonding of CFRP.
