Hygrothermal Aging of Polyimide Matrix Composite Laminates
Two polyimide-matrix systems were subjected to a series of hygrothermal aging experiments at various temperatures and relative humidities. For each aging condition, we measured the microcracking fracture toughness as a function of aging time. The toughness decreased with time. The rate of decrease increased with temperature and relative humidity. All experimental results could be fit to a simpl...
متن کاملModeling of Hygrothermal Damage of Composite Materials
Composite materials have been used extensively in various applications, such as mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, and aviation thanks to their interesting mechanical properties. However, a substantial drawback in the use of such composite materials is that they absorb a significant amount of moisture when exposed to severe hygrothermal conditions. This factor dramatically affects t...
متن کاملEnvironmental Effects on Mechanical Properties of Glass/Epoxy and Fiber Metal Laminates, Part I: Hygrothermal Aging
In this article, the effect of hygrothermal aging on mechanical properties of fiber metal laminates (FMLs) and E-glass/epoxy (GE) composites is investigated. First, FML and GE specimens were built using wet lay-up technique under vacuum pressure. Hygrothermal aging simulation was then carried out on both specimen types in distilled water at a constant temperature of 90 °C for 5 weeks. The resul...
متن کاملModelling low velocity impact induced damage in composite laminates
The paper presents recent progress on modelling low velocity impact induced damage in fibre reinforced composite laminates. It is important to understand the mechanisms of barely visible impact damage (BVID) and how it affects structural performance. To reduce labour intensive testing, the development of finite element (FE) techniques for simulating impact damage becomes essential and recent ef...
متن کاملA Clamped Three-point Bending Setup for Fatigue of Thin Composite Laminates
Usually, fatigue tests on fibre-reinforced composites are performed in uni-axial tension/tension or tension/compression fatigue [1], providing the S-N data. Although bending fatigue tests are not widely accepted as a standard, they are used a lot for research purposes [2] and they do have some important advantages [3]. In case of three-point bending fatigue, the history of bending force versus ...
