Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continuum modeling of the elastic-plastic behavior of fibrous composites is concerned with predictions of the macroscopic behavior of a composite aggregate, which consists of an elastic-plastic metal matrix reinforced by unidirectionally aligned elastic fibers. Mechanical properties and volume fractions of the phases are assumed to be known; the objective is to predict the overall response of the composite under incrementally applied uniform macroscopic stresses or strains in terms of the phase properties, and of the geometry of the microstructure. This paper reviews some recent solutions of this problem. Those include micromechanical models that derive the overall response from uniform local fields, and also models that approximate the actual non-uniform local fields and arrive at upper and lower bound solutions. Recent experimental results pertaining to plastic behavior of fibrous composite materials are also discussed.

This book was released on 1974 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The large-scale plastic deformation behavior of aluminum-stainless steel fiber composites was examined under conditions of simulated forging. With the load applied perpendicular to the direction of reinforcement, deformation occurs in a plane strain mode with no metal flow in the direction of fiber alignment. Two possible types of material damage are identified: (1) void formation in the matrix adjacent to the fibers and inter-fiber cracking of the matrix; (2) breaking of the fibers, leading to deviations from plane strain deformation. Forming limit criteria for both types of damage were established in terms of the normal and lateral pressures in the material. These pressures are related to the workpiece geometry and friction parameters of the system through plasticity theory. Thus, the forming limit criteria, in conjunction with plasticity theory, form the basis of a rational approach to design of processes for forging complex shapes from fiber-reinforced composite materials having a ductile matrix.

This book was released on 2013-01-13 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first of its kind to deal with fabrication processes of metal matrix composites (MMCs) theoretically, experimentally, systematically, and instructively. The theoretical bases of fabrication processes and recycling processes of MMCs are established in this volume. Most other books in the field are concerned with the mechanics of properties, which is not easy for readers to grasp, and they introduce fabrication processes only as techniques without theoretical discussion. Because this book provides a clear image of the fabrication processes of MMCs without using complicated mathematics, readers can use production theory to create new composites. Also, fundamental concepts of recycling of MMCs are given in this book for the first time so as to meet the demands for solving environmental problems. This work originally was published in Japanese and has attained a high reputation among Japanese professors and researchers in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a two-part study on the plastic deformation of the fiber-reinforced metal matrix composites. In the first part of the study, a plasticity theory is formulated to predict analytically the macroscopic and microscopic responses of the unidirectional fiber-reinforced metal matrix composites, loaded by axisymmetric composite stress states. The composites are made of isotropic, linearly elastic fibers, and elastic-plastic, nonhardening matrix of Mises type, and are assumed to be both plastically extensible and compressible. It is shown that the unidirectional composites experience kinematic hardening when loaded by axisymmetric composite stresses. The hardening and flow rules governing the kinematic hardening are formulated. The results obtained by the hardening and flow rules are compared with exact plasticity solutions based on the finite element method. A very good agreement is obtained both for proportional and general loading regimes. An approximate method for the determination of microstresses in the unidirectional Composites under axisymmetric loading is described. jg p4.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A time-dependent approach employing a four-phase concentric cylinder model has been developed to predict the response of metal matrix composites (MMCs) subjected to thermomechanical loadings in which both plastic and creep responses of the composites are considered. The progressive development of plasticity in the matrix phase is determined using the deformation theory of plasticity while the creep deformation of this phase is estimated using the Bailey-Norton equation with an Arrhenius-type expression for the time-dependent creep coefficient. The model is applied to SCS-6/Ti-ß21S composite to study the evolution of the stress and strain states in the constituents of the composite during initial cool-down and subsequent thermal cycles. The model is then employed to examine the influence of several critical parameters on the composite internal stress and strain states. These parameters include the thickness of the equivalent composite media, the type of fiber coating material, the thickness of the reaction zone, cooling rate during initial cool-down, and the kinetics of creep process during thermal cyclic loading. Results of these applications indicated that the process-induced thermal stresses in the matrix phase can be relaxed due to creep following initial cool-down from fabrication. This stress reduction is enhanced at a slower cooling rate. Comparison of different fiber coating materials shows that the use of carbon coating induces compressive stress state in the brittle interfacial region. TiB2-coated fibers, however, are found to be less affected by the growing interphase thickness in preserving the compressive radial stress component in the matrix and the interphase zone. Furthermore, it is found that the matrix activation energy for creep, Q, is history-dependent and can be correlated with the level of creep strain accumulated in the matrix phase. In addition, the residual thermal stresses induced in the matrix phase during initial cool-down can be relaxed by the application of subsequent thermal cycles.

Download or read book Fundamentals of Fibre Reinforced Composite Materials written by A.R. Bunsell and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2005-06-15 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiber reinforced composite materials encompass a wide range of material classes from reinforced glasses, plastics, and rubbers through to more recently developed metals and ceramics. Fundamentals of Fibre Reinforced Composite Materials is a comprehensive and authoritative book that introduces the topic with a brief history of composite development, a review of composite applications, the types of fibre used, and their respective indiviual properties. An entire chapter considers organic matrices and their behavior, reviewing all of the most commonly encountered polymer matrix systems. Composite manufacturing techniques are then discussed, including those methods employed in the production of advanced metal and ceramic matrix composites. The remaining chapters are devoted primarily to theoretical treatments of composite behavior, with emphasis on the understanding of damage mechanisms such as cracking, delamination, and fibre breakage. Where a mathematical approach is required, an attempt is made to relate the sometimes rather abstract notions back at the structure of the material being discussed. With extensive sets of sample problems accompanying each chapter, Fundamentals of Fibre Reinforced Composite Materials is ideally suited to undergraduate and graduate students of materials science, structural, mechanical, and aeronautical engineering, polymer science, metallurgy, physics and chemistry. It will also be of use as a reference to researchers working with composite materials and material scientists in general.
