Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the first comprehensive review of its kind on the long-term behaviour of composite materials and structures subjected to time variable mechanical, thermal, and chemical influences, a subject of critical importance to the design, development, and certification of high performance engineering structures. Specific topics examined include damage, damage characterization, and damage mechanics; fatigue testing and evaluation; fatigue behaviour of short and long fibre reinforced polymer and metal matrix materials; viscoelastic and moisture effects; delamination; statistical considerations; the modeling of cumulative damage development; and life prediction. The volume provides an extensive presentation of data, discussions, and comparisons on the behaviour of the major types of material systems in current use, as well as extensive analysis and modeling (including the first presentation of work not found elsewhere). The book will be of special interest to engineers concerned with reliability, maintainability, safety, certification, and damage tolerance; to materials developers concerned with making materials for long-term service, especially under severe loads and environments, and to lecturers, students, and researchers involved in material system design, performance, solid mechanics, fatigue, durability, and composite materials. The scope of the work extends from entry level material to the frontiers of the subject.

Book Durability of Continuous Fiber Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites

Download or read book Durability of Continuous Fiber Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites written by D. M. Harmon and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this program was to develop the test data and analysis techniques required to insure the structural integrity of fiber reinforced metal matrix composites (FRMMC) when applied to airframe structures. Approximately 300 tests of unidirectional boron/6061 aluminum, (B4C)/15-3-3-3 titanium, and crossplied boron/6061 aluminum were performed. Testing was concentrated on notched (central hole) specimens to evaluate the notch sensitivity of these materials and to discriminate between the failure modes of aluminum and titanium matrix composites. It was found that the relative fiber and matrix stiffnesses and strengths determine primary failure modes in fatigue. Analysis methods were developed based on fiber and matrix properties to predict notched and unnotched static strength, crack initiation, fatigue failure mode, life to failure, and residual strength. One half of the tests (150 specimens) were performed to verify the predicted properties of the aluminum and titanium matrix composites.

Book Aspects of High Temperature Damage in Fiber Reinforced Titanium Metal Matrix Composites

Download or read book Aspects of High Temperature Damage in Fiber Reinforced Titanium Metal Matrix Composites written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aspects associated with high temperature damage in fiber reinforced Metal Matrix Composites were investigated and are presented in this report in the form of five separate sections. In the first section, the fatigue and fatigue crack growth characteristics in neat laminates made of Timetal 21S were studied in relation to both temperature and loading frequency effects. The second section deals with the evolution of the thermal residual stresses in the composite when cooling from consolidation temperature or subjecting the composite to then-nal cycles. A new mechanical simulation method capable of measuring the induced residual stress on real; time basis has been developed in this study. The third section extends this issue to the time-dependent internal stress and strain states of MMCs under the thermomechanical loading conditions. Here, a new micromechanical model employing the four-phase concentric cylinder configuration has been proposed. Based on this model, the time-dependent behavior of continuous fiber reinforced metal matrix composites has been evaluated for the SCS-6/Timetal 21S composite. These results are presented in the fourth section. The last section of this report deals with the high temperature fatigue crack growth characteristics of the continuous fiber reinforced titanium metal matrix composite sigma l240/Timetal 12IS. The time- dependent features of the crack growth was examined in relation to the variation of both testing temperature and loading frequency. the principal damage mechanism of this composite under the load condition employed was identified to be the crack bridging and fiber/matrix debonding confined to regions near the crack surfaces ... Bridging, Fiber pullout length, Viscoplasticity, Composite interface.

Book Damage Initiation and Growth in Fiber Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites

Download or read book Damage Initiation and Growth in Fiber Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites written by D. Harmon and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elevated temperature applications for advanced fighters and hypersonic vehicles, along with advanced fabrication techniques, such as diffusion bonding and superplastic forming, have brought renewed interest in metal matrix composites for aircraft structures. In order to predict the strength and durability of metal matrix structures, it will be necessary to predict the mode in which failure occurs, such as net section failure, shear along the fiber, or other modes. Test and analysis results demonstrate the differences between strength and fatigue failure modes of uni-directionally reinforced aluminum matrix composites (AMC) and those in titanium matrix composites (TMC). These tests include detailed optical and scanning electron microscope studies of failures in aluminum and titanium matrix composites.

Book Fatigue Crack Growth Mechanisms in Titanium Metal Matrix Composites

Download or read book Fatigue Crack Growth Mechanisms in Titanium Metal Matrix Composites written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report details studies carried out to identify the high temperature fatigue crack growth damage mechanisms in fiber-reinforced titanium metal matrix composites. The report consists of eight separate sections. In the first section, the fatigue and fatigue crack growth characteristics in neat laminates made of Timetal 21S were studied in relation to both temperature and loading frequency effects. The second section deals with the evolution of the thermal residual stresses in the composite when cooling from consolidation temperature or subjecting the composite to thermal cycles. A new mechanical simulation method capable of measuring the induced residual stress on real time basis has been developed in this study. The third section extends this issue to the time-dependent internal stress and strain states of MMCs under the thermomechanical loading conditions. Here, a new micromechanical model employing the four-phase concentric cylinder configuration has been proposed. Based on this model, the time-dependent behavior of continuous fiber reinforced metal matrix composites. It has been evaluated. These results are presented in the fourth section. The fifth, sixth and seventh sections of this report describe the influence of temperature and loading frequency on the crack growth process and suggest a fatigue-creep interactive mechanism acting at the crack tip during high temperature loadings. The last section of the report deals with the determination of the stress evolution in bridging fibers during the fatigue crack growth in SM 1240/Timetal-21S composite using the finite element method. Several parameters affecting this evolution were considered; namely, the process-induced residual stress, the creep characteristics of the matrix layer surrounding the fiber, the test temperature and the loading frequency.

Book Micro Mechanical Analysis of Damage Growth and Fracture in Discontinuous Fiber Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites

Download or read book Micro Mechanical Analysis of Damage Growth and Fracture in Discontinuous Fiber Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites written by National Aeronautics and Space Adm Nasa and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The near-crack-tip stresses in any planar coupon of arbitrary geometry subjected to mode 1 loading may be equated to those in an infinite center-cracked panel subjected to the appropriate equivalent remote biaxial stresses (ERBS). Since this process can be done for all such mode 1 coupons, attention may be focused on the behavior of the equivalent infinite cracked panel. To calculate the ERBS, the constant term in the series expansion of the crack-tip stress must be retained. It is proposed that the ERBS may be used quantitatively to explain different fracture phenomena such as crack branching. Goree, James G. and Richardson, David E.
