Micromechanics Of Failure

A multiscale analysis strategy with physical modified-micromechanics of failure (MMF3) criterion was proposed to analyze the failure behaviors of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) laminates. The quantitative relationship between the macro- and micro- stresses was determined considering two typical fiber distributions. Thermal residual stress was taken into account in the stress transformation. The failures were defined and the properties of damaged elements were degraded at the constituent level. The back-calculation method based on the iteration algorithm was proposed to determine the micro strength with macro mechanical tests. A series of off-axis loading tests were conducted to verify the established multiscale models. The predicted strength was also compared with the results using micromechanics of failure (MMF) criterion to present accuracy improvements. Thermal residual stress was found to affect the strength by contributing to the matrix damage status. Meanwhile, sensitivity analysis was provided for the matrix-dominant micro strength to investigate its physical meaning. Results suggest that the micro tensile and compressive strength of the matrix influenced the off-axis tensile and compressive strengths respectively, with relative large off-axis angles, while the micro shear strength of the matrix dominated when the off-axis angles were relative small.

Cracking Stress

A two dimensional silicon carbide fiber reinforced SiC matrix (2D SiC/SiC) composite fabricated by precursor infiltration pyrolysis (PIP) process used a liquid SiC ceramic precursor was obtained. Two key properties including matrix cracking stress and thermal residual stress were investigated for this PIP 2D SiC/SiC composites. Three methods were applied to determine the matrix cracking stress in order to obtained a trusted value, and the value of matrix cracking stress for SiC/SiC composite was 75±4 MPa. The thermal residual stress of the composites was calculated by linear regression line according to the loading-unloading-reloading stress-strain curve of the 2D SiC/SiC composite, and the result showed that the value of thermal residual stress of SiC matrix in composite was 20MPa, which means the PIP SiC matrix in the 2D SiC/SiC composite was under the compressive stress when the composite cooling down from the fabrication temperature to the room temperature.

Specific Impact

This paper focuses on the reduction of process-related thermal residual stress in fiber metal laminates and its impact on the mechanical properties. Different modifications during fabrication of co-cure bonded steel/carbon epoxy composite hybrid structures were investigated. Specific examinations are conducted on UD-CFRP-Steel specimens, modifying temperature, pressure or using a thermal expansion clamp during manufacturing. The impact of these parameters is then measured on the deflection of asymmetrical specimens or due yield-strength measurements of symmetrical specimens. The tensile strength is recorded to investigate the effect of thermal residual stress on the mechanical properties. Impact tests are performed to determine the influence on resulting damage areas at specific impact energies. The experiments revealed that the investigated modifications during processing of UD-CFRP-Steel specimens can significantly lower the thermal residual stress and thereby improve the tensile strength.
