Experimental investigation of static and fatigue behaviour of composites honeycomb materials using four point bending tests
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study static and fatigue behaviours of honeycomb sandwich composites, made of aramide fibres and aluminium cores, are investigated through four-point bending tests. Damage and failure modes are reported and discussed. Global and local parameters were considered to evaluate the fatigue life of the analysed sandwich composites. Effects of core densities and the cell orientation (L or W) on the maximum load and on the damage processes (initiation and evolution) are also investigated. 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Mechanical Properties of Graphene/Epoxy Nanocomposites under Static and Flexural Fatigue Loadings
In the present study, the effect of various weight fractions of graphene nanoplatelet (GPL) on flexural fatigue behavior of epoxy polymer has been investigated at room temperature and generally the temperature was monitored on the surface of specimen during each test. The flexural stiffness of grapheme nano-platelet/epoxy nanocomposites at 0.1, 0.25 and 0.5 wt. % as a main effective parameter o...
متن کاملStatic and Fatigue Behaviour of Hexagonal Honeycomb Cores under In-plane Shear Loads
Due to their high specific strength and high specific stiffness properties the use of honeycomb panels is particularly attractive in spacecraft structures. However, the harsh environment produced during the launch of a satellite can subject the honeycomb cores of these sandwich structures to severe quasi-static and dynamic loads, potentially leading to static or early fatigue failures. Knowledg...

Semi-Circular Bending (SCB) Test is a fast and accurate three-point bending test, which was originally used in rock mechanics. SCB test is going to be an accepted test method for asphalt concrete pavements. Different asphalt-mixture property-values such as tensile strength, stress intensity factor and fatigue can be obtained by this test. In this study, static and dynamic tests including SCB te...
متن کاملBending Fatigue Tests and Finite Element Models of Steel Rectangular Hollow Sections [SRHS]
The Welding in cold formed areas is not only an open question for statically loaded sections (brittle fracture) but also for dynamically loaded structures (fatigue resistance). A lot of structures are subjected to dynamic loadings and unfortunately very little information about the influence of welding in the cold formed areas on fatigue resistance is available. In order to establish the fatigu...

Building the Nano composites for getting material with combinational properties and improving properties of currently used material has been taken significant attention. One of the ways of building Nano composites is using a method known as powder metallurgy. Because with this method not only wastes are decreased to minimum but we can also mix the materials with high melting point with the mate...
