Composite Patch Repair of Central Crack Growth in Aluminium Alloy Plate
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work, repaired crack in 6061T6 aluminum plate with composite patches presented, firstly we determine the displacement, strain and stress, also the first six mode shape of the plate, secondly we took the same model adding central crack initiation, which is located in the center of the plate, its seize vary from 20 mm to 60 mm and we compare the first results with second. Thirdly we repair various cracks with composite patch (carbon/ epoxy) and for (2 layers, 4 layers). Finally the comparison of stress, strain, displacement and six first natural frequencies between uncracked specimen, crack propagation and composite patch repair. Keywords—Composite patch repair, crack growth, aluminum alloy plate, stress.

Experimental Study of Sable Crack Growth in Thin Aluminium Sheet
Recent failure information from research teams in NASA Langley and others has shown that CTOA based fracture models calibrated on large C(T) and M(T) specimens can be transferred successfully to cracked aircraft fuselage structures for the assessment of their residual strength. A major difficulty that could limit the more extensive use of this failure parameter is its experimental measurement e...
متن کاملInvestigating the Effectiveness of a Composite Patch on Repairing Pipes Subjected to Circumferential Cracks under Combined Loadings
The purpose of this study is to investigate bending moment and the axial load capacity of a pressurized pipe suffering from a through-wall circumferential crack repaired by a composite sleeve. The three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) was adopted to compute the results, and the failure assessment diagram (FAD) was employed to investigate the failure behavior of the repaired pipe. The fi...

High strength, wrought 7xxx (Al-Zn-Mg) and Al-Li based alloys show a propensity for fatigue macroscopic crack deflections aligned along grain boundaries. The present work reports a study on a 3 rd generation Al-Li based alloy in the form of a thick AA2297 (Al-Cu-Li alloy) plate, where it was found that although the lithium containing material may indeed be more susceptible to mixed mode grain b...

Purpose – The purpose of this work is to describe the effects of the length of cracks and the patch size on the stress intensity factors in a bonded composite repair structure containing multiple site damage. Design/methodology/approach – Finite element method was applied to simulate a bonded repair of a cracked aluminum plate with multiple site damage. A two-dimensional three-layer technique w...
متن کاملAn Experimental Study on the Tensile Behavior of the Cracked Aluminum Plates Repaired with FML Composite Patches
Repairing of the cracks by fiber metal laminates (FMLs) was first done by some aeronautical laboratories in early 1970s. In this study, experimental investigations were done on the effect of repairing the center-cracked aluminum plates using the FML patches. The repairing processes were conducted to characterize the response of the repaired structures to tensile tests. The composite patches wer...
