Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study focused on characterizing matrix cracking and delamination behavior in multidirectional laminates. Static tension and tension-tension fatigue tests were conducted on two different layups. Damage onset, accumulation, and residual properties were measured. Matrix cracking was shown to have a considerable influence on residual stiffness of glass epoxy laminates, and could be predicted reasonably well for cracks in 90 deg plies using a simple shear lag analysis. A fracture mechanics analysis for the strain energy release rate associated with 90 deg ply matrix crack formation was developed and was shown to correlate the onset of 90 deg ply cracks in different laminates. The linear degradation of laminate modulus with delamination area, previously observed for graphite epoxy laminates, was predicted for glass epoxy laminates using a simple rule of mixtures analysis. The strain energy release rate associated with edge delamination formation under static and cyclic loading was difficult to analyze because of the presence of several contemporary damage phenomena. Keywords: Fatigue(Mechanics), and Stiffness loss.

Download or read book Fatigue Crack Growth in Rubber Materials written by Gert Heinrich and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-23 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book summarizes recent international research and experimental developments regarding fatigue crack growth investigations of rubber materials. It shows the progress in fundamental as well as advanced research of fracture investigation of rubber material under fatigue loading conditions, especially from the experimental point of view. However, some chapters will describe the progress in numerical modeling and physical description of fracture mechanics and cavitation phenomena in rubbers. Initiation and propagation of cracks in rubber materials are dominant phenomena which determine the lifetime of these soft rubber materials and, as a consequence, the lifetime of the corresponding final rubber parts in various fields of application. Recently, these phenomena became of great scientific interest due to the development of new experimental methods, concepts and models. Furthermore, crack phenomena have an extraordinary impact on rubber wear and abrasion of automotive tires; and understanding of crack initiation and growth in rubbers will help to support the growthing number of activities and worldwide efforts of reduction of tire wear losses and abrasion based emissions.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this research, thermal residual stresses were incorporated in an analysis of fiber-bridged matrix cracks in unidirectional and cross-ply titanium matrix composites (TMC) containing center holes or center notches. Two TMCs were investigated, namely, SCS-6/Ti-15-3 and SCS-6/Timetal-21S laminates. Experimentally, matrix crack initiation and growth were monitored during tension-tension fatigue tests conducted at room temperature and at an elevated temperature of 200°C. Analytically, thermal residual stresses were included in a fiber bridging (FB) model. The local R-ratio and stress-intensity factor in the matrix due to thermal and mechanical loadings were calculated and used to evaluate the matrix crack growth behavior in the two materials studied. The frictional shear stress term t assumed in this model was used as a curve-fitting parameter to matrix crack growth data. The scatter band in the values of t used to fit the matrix crack growth data was significantly reduced when thermal residual stresses were included in the fiber-bridging analysis. For a given material system, lay-up and temperature, a single value of t was sufficient to analyze the crack growth data. It was revealed in this study that thermal residual stresses are an important factor overlooked in the original FB models.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultrasonic C-scans have successfully been used to investigate damage from notches and holes in Nexte1610 /Aluminosilicate (N610/AS) during tensile and fatigue loading conditions. Sectioned fatigue specimens verified that the region of distributed matrix damage and longitudinal fiber breakage correlated well with the C-scan damage zone at 23C. At 950C the C-scan data showed that the damage zone was confined to the notch plane where damage was primarily due to self similar crack growth. Sectioned samples verified that longitudinal fiber breaks were predominant in the vicinity of the matrix crack. The results from these tests are being employed to develop damage and failure criteria for N610/AS and other woven CMC.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reliable design of ceramic matrix composite components in aerospace applications requires the knowledge of the crack propagation behavior of these materials at elevated temperatures. The first part of this paper discusses a test setup using a centrally notched disk to conduct mechanical fatigue crack growth testing of brittle matrices used in these composites. The specimen compliance is monitored using the laser interferometric displacement gage system. To evaluate this fatigue crack growth test setup, cyclic crack propagation is studied in an alumina ceramic specimen. Transmission electron microscopy of surface replicates show evidence of irreversible microcracking at the crack tip that could provide the mechanism for fatigue crack growth in this ceramic. The second part of this paper discusses the results from automated fatigue crack growth tests on silicon-carbide fiber-reinforced aluminosilicate glass matrix composites at room and elevated temperatures using the compact tension geometry. Tests conducted at room temperature indicate high damage tolerance in these composites due to energy dissipation through distributed matrix cracking around the tip, fiber bridging, and fiber pull out. In contrast, tests at 650°C reveal Mode 1 self-similar crack growth in these composites and absence of fiber pullout.
