This book was released on 1999 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Failure mechanisms of basket weave and 3-D braided Kevlar-fabric reinforced epoxy composites under low and high velocity impacts have been studied. The purpose of this study is to examine the initiation and development of damage under these two widely differing loading conditions on 2-D and 3-D structure fabric composites. The critical evaluation of post-damage composite panels was conducted using a combination of high magnification photography, optical microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The first objective, quantification, has been realized in principle with regards to laminated composites, and it has been demonstrated that dispersive failure occurs in these composites. The second objective in this work established the relationship between kinetic energy absorbed and the damage tolerance of inter-leaved composites as assessed by the impact tests. High velocity impact loading by a small projectile is generally more detrimental to the integrity of a composite structure than low velocity dropweight impact loading.

Download or read book Impact Damages of Braided Composites written by Meiqi Hu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reports thermo-mechanical coupling constitutive equations and impact damage distributions of 3-D braided composite materials under impulsive loadings, in multidisciplinary fields among mechanical engineering, textile engineering and impact dynamics. The 3-D braided composite is one of the unique textile composites with integrated braided preform structure. Currently the 3-D braided composite has been rapidly applied to aerospace, automotive and medical engineering because the materials could realize the integration of material structure to manufacture complex structural parts and reduce the number of assembly connections. This book presents a thermo-mechanical coupled multiscale geometrical model of the 3-D braiding composite beams and tubes for analyzing damage mechanisms under various impact velocities. Impact deformation and damage morphologies have been described both in experimental observations with high speed cameras, micro-CT and finite element analyses. All the impact damages are shown in figures for unveiling the relationships between microstructure and failure modes. This provides a vivid way for how to design braided structures with high impact damage tolerance. The book is intended for graduate students who are interested in composite materials and mechanics, researchers investigating on impact dynamics of composite structure design, and engineers working on impact-proof structure design. The English translation of this book from its Chinese original manuscript was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service provider DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision of the content was done by the author.

Download or read book Low and High Velocity Impact Response of Thick Hybrid Composites written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-05 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of low and high velocity impact on thick hybrid composites (THC's) were experimentally compared. Test Beams consisted of CFRP skins which were bonded onto an interleaved syntactic foam core and cured at 177 C (350 F). The impactor tip for both cases was a 16 mm (0.625 inch) steel hemisphere. In spite of the order of magnitude difference in velocity ranges and impactor weights, similar relationships between impact energy, damage size, and residual strength were found. The dependence of the skin compressive strength on damage size agree well with analytical open hole models for composite laminates and may enable the prediction of ultimate performance for the damaged composite, based on visual inspection.
