this research deals with axial and oblique impact crash tests on simple and hybrid composite tubes. axial and oblique impact tests have been generated on simple and hybrid composite tubes with one, two and three layers. a drop test rig was used to conduct the experiments. furthermore, in order to gain more detailed knowledge about the crash process, finite element simulations of the experiments...

We develop an orders-of-scattering approximation, termed the “screened cylindrical void/ core” (SCV) approximation, for a composite cylinder. The composite cylinder consists of a large host cylinder that contains a small, eccentrically embedded, core cylinder. The SCV approximation is developed via separation of variables in conjunctionwith addition theorems for cylindrical functions. We show t...

The polar filaments within microsporidian spores discharges as tubes with subsecond velocity. Populations of discharging tubes of Glugea hertwigi spores pulse-labeled with latex particles for 1-3 s were consistently devoid of label at the distal ends; discharging tubes were completely labeled after 30- to 60-s exposure to latex. This experiment indicates that discharge tubes grow at the tip. Co...

In this research, static stresses analysis of boron nitride nano - tube reinforced composite (BNNTRC) cylinder made of poly - vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) subjected to non - axisymmetric thermo - mechanical loads and applied voltage is developed. The surrounded elastic medium is modelled by Pasternak foundation. Composite structure is modeled based on piezoelectric fiber reinforced composite (PFR...

Assessing the behavior of composite structures which are subjected to impact loads is one of the important subjects in the field of mechanical sciences. Using thin-walled tubes which collapsed and absorbed the impact energy is a well-known method to prevent damages to the other parts of the structures. In this paper, deformations, crushing length, peak load, mean force and energy absorption cap...

magnetic field effects on the elastic response of polymeric piezoelectric cylinder reinforced with carbon nanotubes (cnts) is studied. the cylinder is subjected to internal pressure, a constant electric potential difference at the inner and outer surfaces, thermal and magnetic fields. the mori-tanaka model is used for obtaining the equivalent material properties of the cylinder. based on the ch...

The present study aimed to evaluate effects of different surface treatments and aging of composite cylinders on bond strength of composite resin repair. Thirty-two composite cylinders were produced and divided into four groups according to type of surface treatment and storage time of composite cylinder and repair. Cylinder surface of control group (Gcontrol) received no treatment before compos...

composites materials are widely used because of their high specific stiffness and strength. although the methods and techniques of designing these materials are well developed, however, the research on the behavior of these materials under impact and dynamic loadings are still under progress. in this article the crushing and energy absorption of composite tubes under axial dynamic loadings are ...

The mechanical behavior of 3D multi-layered braided composite tubes was analyzed using a multi-scale modelling approach. Considering the braiding parameters and the fiber volume fraction of the composite tubes, firstly a unit-cell of the composites was determined based on the motion of yarn carriers and modeled using TEXGEN software. The unit-cell was imported into finite element software to ca...
