The bearing properties of recently developed hybrid fiber/metal laminates, or COmmingled Boron/glass fiber Reinforced Aluminum laminates (COBRA), are investigated in this study. The bolt-type bearing tests on GLass REinforced aluminum laminates (GLARE), non-commingled hybrid boron/glass/aluminum fiber/metal laminates (HFML) and COBRA were carried out as a function of e/D ratio, metal volume fraction, fiber volume fraction, and fiber orientation. Experimental results show that with the same joint geometry and metal volume fraction, the commingling of boron fibers improves the bearing strength of fiber/metal laminates. The bearing strength of COBRA with longitudinal fibers is lower than that with transverse fibers due to the fact that shearout failure takes place before maximum bearing strength is reached. The experimental results show that, with only either transverse fiber orientation or longitudinal fiber orientation, COBRA with 18% boron fiber volume fraction possesses a higher bearing strength when compared to HFML with 6% boron fiber volume fraction. In addition to the properties in COBRA with parallel-plies commingled prepreg, the bearing properties of various COBRA with [0°/90°] and [0°/90°/90°/0°] cross-ply commingled prepregs are also discussed.

Objective of this paper is study the bearing strength and failure modes of the Fiber Metal Laminates prepared by hand layup technique in two different stacking sequences. Parameters like ratio of hole distance to hole diameter (e/D), ratio to the width of composite to hole diameter (W/D) are varied during the experiment. Hole diameter is kept constant as 6mm and e value is taken as 6mm, 12mm, 18mm, 24mm, 30mm and 36mm. Similarly the width of the FML specimen is maintained as 24mm and 36mm respectively. Results show that laminate with [Ca0°/Ca90°/Al/Ca90°/Ca0°]s orientation is having a bearing strength 3.94% higher than that of [Al/Ca0°/Ca90°/Al/Ca0°]s orientation. In terms of failure modes the specimens with distance-diameter ratio greater than 3 and the two width- diameter ratio 4 and 6 exhibited bearing failure. For smaller ratios, the failure is due to shear out which involves combination of bearing and net tension failure.
