Critical Thrust Force

Among the various forms of material damage, exit-ply delamination has been identified as one of the most deleterious damage processes associated with drilling fibre-reinforced plastics. The thrust force has been cited as the primary cause for drilling-induced exit-ply delamination. Only one analytical model for the prediction of the critical thrust force responsible for delamination using core drills can be found in the literature. In this study, a realistic model to predict critical thrust force responsible for drilling-induced exit-ply delamination in a multi-directional carbon fibre-reinforced plastic laminate with core drill has been proposed. A comparison between the proposed model, literature model as well as the experimental tests conducted during punching tests is presented. The proposed model is found to correlate well with experimental punching tests. In fact, the maximum relative errors recorded between the experimental values of the critical thrust force and the measured values are around 15%. Micro-tomography experiments have also been conducted that capture the drilling-induced damage in multi-directional carbon fibre-reinforced plastics in great detail. The X-ray images highlight the difficulty in controlling the thickness of the uncut plies located under the core drill during punching tests that can be attributed to some deviations in predictions of critical thrust force. Postmortem examination of the blind holes after punching tests also confirms the presence of a net delamination near the vicinity of the nominal diameter of the core drill, which correlates well to the hypothesis of the analytical model.

The physical properties of the hot interstellar matter in elliptical galaxies are directly related with the formation and evolution of elliptical galaxies via star formation episodes, environmental effects such as stripping, infall, and mergers, and growth of super-massive black holes. The recent successful Chandra and XMM-Newton X-ray space missions have provided a large amount of high spatial/spectral resolution observational data on the hot ISM in elliptical galaxies. At the same time, theoretical studies with numerical simulations and analytical modeling of the dynamical and chemical evolution of elliptical galaxies have made a significant progress and start to predict various observable quantities.

Critical Thrust Force

Composites have become valuable construction materials in the aerospace, defense, automobile, and civil industries due to their superior mechanical properties. However, there are significant differences between the machining of metals and alloys and that of composites, because composites are anisotropic and inhomogeneous. Drilling with a conventional twist drill is characterized by a relatively large thrust force due to a negative rake and negligibly small cutting speed at the chisel edge. Such a large thrust force causes defects and damages the composites, leading to poor hole quality, and reduced in-service life under fatigue loads. Although significant efforts have been made to realize the thrust force of twist drill, there are few papers reporting the effect of peripheral drilling moment (torque) on delamination in drilling composite materials. In this paper, an attempt is made to develop the critical thrust of the twist drill with peripheral drilling moment using linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) and energy conservation. The theoretical results agree well with the practical experience in industries.

Purpose – Damage due to delamination is an important issue during drilling in polymer-matrix composites (PMCs). It depends on thrust force and torque which are functions of feed rate. Transfer function of thrust force with feed rate and torque with feed rate is constructed through experiments. These transfer functions are then combined in state-space to formulate a sixth-order model. Then thrust force and torque are controlled by using optimal controller. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – A glass fiber reinforced plastic composite is drilled at constant feed rate during experimentation. The corresponding time response of thrust force and torque is recorded. Third-order transfer functions of thrust force with feed rate and torque with feed rate are identified using system identification toolbox of Matlab®. These transfer functions are then converted into sixth-order combined state-space model. Optimal controller is then designed to track given reference trajectories of thrust force/torque during drilling in composite laminate. Findings – Optimal control is used to simultaneously control thrust force as well as torque during drilling. There is a critical thrust force during drilling below which no delamination occurs. Therefore, critical thrust force profile is used as reference for delamination free drilling. Present controller precisely tracks the critical thrust force profile. Using critical thrust force as reference, high-speed drilling can be done. The controller is capable of precisely tracking arbitrary thrust force and torque profile simultaneously. Findings suggest that the control mechanism is efficient and can be effective in minimizing drilling induced damage in composite laminates. Originality/value – Simultaneous optimal control of thrust force and torque during drilling in composites is not available in literature. Feed rate corresponding to critical thrust force trajectory which can prevent delamination at fast speed also not available has been presented.

Delamination accompanied with the drilling of composite laminates has been recognized as a major problem. An analytical model is established to predict critical thrust force and critical feedrate at which the delamination crack begins to propagate. For unidirectional composites, the delamination zone is modeled as an elliptical plate, with clamped edges and subjected to a central load. Based on fracture mechanics, laminated plate theory and cutting mechanics, expressions are developed for critical thrusts and critical feedrates at which delamination is initiated at different ply locations. This model has been verified by experiments. A variable feedrate strategy is formulated based on this model, which avoids delamination while drilling in a time-optimal fashion. In addition, the need to modify tool geometry to avoid delamination is highlighted. Chisel edge width has been identified as an important factor contributing to the thrust force and hence delamination.
