CFRP圆形胞元蜂窝芯层面外剪切模量

为了减少卫星的热变形,将碳纤维增强树脂基复合材料（CFRP）材料圆管周期排布获得新型圆形胞元蜂窝芯层。考虑无论是Ressiner理论还是商业有限元软件ABAQUS,层合板计算热变形时,芯层的面外剪切模量均很重要,因此对CFRP圆形胞元蜂窝芯层的面外剪切进行了研究。分别从应力与应变的角度基于能量等效原理求出圆形胞元蜂窝芯层的面外剪切模量公式。以T300/环氧材料的工程常见铺层为例,比较基于ABAQUS软件计算所得剪切模量仿真解与公式计算所得理论解,其最大误差仅为10.4%,证实公式对于CFRP材料的适用性。同时用（±45°）₂铺层的T300/环氧芯层完成双剪试验,试验结果与理论结果误差为24.1%,与前人研究的铝蜂窝面外剪切模量理论解与试验解的误差相近。最后通过仿真手段证实,24.1%的误差对整体夹层结构影响较小,说明公式具有良好的工程应用价值。为以后CFRP圆形胞元蜂窝芯层的设计提供重要基础。

Development of a satellite structure with the sandwich T-joint

In this study, a monocoque satellite structure composed of many composite sandwich panels, which consist of two carbon fiber/epoxy composite faces and an aluminum honeycomb core, was designed to reduce structural mass and to improve static and dynamic structural rigidity. To join composite sandwich panels with T-shape joints, a new I-shape side insert, which was fixed inside the composite sandwich panel edge with film adhesive, was suggested. The composite sandwich panels were assembled with bolts using the through-the-thickness insert and the I-shape side insert. The flatwise tensile and compressive tests of the composite sandwich panels were performed with respect to the bonding pressure between the composite face and the aluminum honeycomb core to achieve an optimal bonding pressure. To investigate the joint characteristics of the composite faces and the I-shape side insert, cleavage peel tests were performed with respect to the bonding thickness. Also, a finite element model of the composite sandwich T-joint with the I-shape side insert was developed from experimental results of the impulse response tests and composite sandwich T-joint static tests. From the finite element analysis, the structural reliability of the monocoque composite sandwich satellite structure was verified.     

High Temperature Residual Properties of Carbon Fiber Composite Sandwich Panel with Pyramidal Truss Cores

A study on the mechanical property degradation of carbon fiber composite sandwich panel with pyramidal truss cores by high temperature exposure is performed. Analytical formulae for the residual bending strength of composite sandwich panel after thermal exposure are presented for possible competing failure modes. The composite sandwich panels were fabricated from unidirectional carbon/epoxy prepreg, and were exposed to different temperatures for different time. The bending properties of the exposed specimens were measured by three-point bending tests. Then the effect of high temperature exposure on the bending properties and damage mechanism were analyzed. The results have shown that the residual bending strength of composite sandwich panels decreased with increasing exposure temperature and time, which was caused by the degradation of the matrix property and fiber-matrix interface property at high temperature. The effect of thermal exposure on failure mode of composite sandwich panel was observed as well. The measured failure loads showed good agreement with the analytical predictions. It is expected that this study can provide useful information on the design and application of carbon fiber composite sandwich panel at high temperature.     

Thermal distortion analysis of orbiting solar array including degradation effects of composite materials

In this study, transient analyzes were conducted to predict the thermal distortion of the Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite (KOMPSAT) solar array during its orbital motion. The solar array consists of five honeycomb sandwich panels with aluminum facesheets. To enable future improvements, the solar arrays were also analyzed with composite facesheets for the temperature distribution and thermal distortion. In order to evaluate the degradation effects of the material properties of the composite facesheets in low earth orbit environment, the composite materials were exposed to simulate low earth orbit environmental conditions including ultraviolet (UV) radiation, high vacuum and thermal cycling. The values of the degraded properties were used in the thermal distortion analysis. The results show that the solar arrays with composite facesheets are beneficial with regard to weight savings, temperature distribution and thermal distortion during the mission when compared to those with aluminum facesheets, even though the composite materials are degraded due to low earth orbit environmental factors.     

Buckling characteristics of smart skin structures

A 5.78 GHz micro strip antenna has been developed for use in Wireless LAN (WLAN) systems. It has a composite sandwich construction, and uses composite laminates and Nomex honeycomb. This is the surface-antenna-structure (SAS) concept, applied to load-bearing structural surfaces. The design originated from a composite sandwich structure and a multi-layer micro strip antenna. Design, fabrication and validation of structural/electrical performances all took place. To verify structural rigidity, the bucking behavior was calculated from a theoretical model, and was compared with experimental results. Electrical measurements of the fabricated antenna array were in good agreement with design specifications. The SAS concept can be extended into a guide for manufacturers of structural body panels as well as antenna designers, promising innovative future communication technology.     

Dynamic response of aluminum honeycomb sandwich panels under foam projectile impact

The dynamic response of honeycomb sandwich panels under aluminum foam projectile impact was investigated. The different configurations of panels were tested, and deformation/failure modes were obtained. Corresponding numerical simulations were also presented to investigate the energy absorption and deformation mechanism of sandwich panels. Results showed that the deformation/failure modes of sandwich panels were sensitive to the impact velocity and density of aluminum foam. When the panel was impacted by the aluminum foam projectile with the back mass of nylon, the “accelerating impact” stage can be produced and may lead to further compression and damage of the sandwich structures.     

Composite robot end effector for manipulating large LCD glass panels

Recently, the design and the manufacture of light robot end effectors with high stiffness have become important in order to reduce the deflection due to the self-weight and weight of glass panel, a part of LCD, as the size of glass panels as well as robot end effectors increases. The best way to reduce the deflection and vibration of end effectors without sacrificing the stiffness of end effectors is to employ fiber reinforced composite materials for main structural materials because composite materials have high specific stiffness and high damping. In this work, the end effector for loading and unloading large glass panels were designed and manufactured using carbon fiber epoxy composite honeycomb sandwich structures. Finite element analysis was used along with an optimization routine to design the composite end effector. A box type sandwich structure was employed to reduce the shear effect arising from the low modulus of honeycomb structure. The carbon fiber epoxy prepreg was hand-laid up on the honeycomb structure and cured in an autoclave. A special process was used to reinforce the two sidewalls of the box type sandwich structure. The weight reduction of the composite end effector was more than 50% compared to the weight of a comparable aluminum end effector. From the experiments, it was also found that the static and dynamic characteristics of the composite end effector were much improved compared to those of the aluminum end effector.
