Tunable dual-wavelength ring fiber laser with stable output based on saturable absorber and thin core passive fiber

A dual-wavelength erbium-doped ring fiber laser is proposed and experimentally demonstrated though a detailed theoretical analysis and experimental verification. The proposed dual-wavelength erbium-doped fiber (EDF) laser, which is based on a ring fiber laser structure, is fabricated using two fiber Bragg gratings. By adjusting the gains and losses of the fiber laser structure, the laser can be switched between single- and double-wavelength modes. A saturable absorber (SA) is used to improve the output laser stability, which is further enhanced by splicing a thin core passive fiber (TCPF) into the laser cavity to produce a Mach–Zehnder filter effect. Optimizing the lengths of the SA and TCPF results in the adoption of a 1-m EDF and a 4-m passive fiber. On the basis of these enhancements and optimizations, a fiber laser with stable output is constructed that incurs single- or dual-wavelength laser shifts of less than 3 pm at room temperature over a period of 250 s.

Mechanical,thermal expansion,and flammability properties of co-extruded wood polymer composites with basalt fiber reinforced shells

Basalt fiber (BF) filled high density polyethylene (HDPE) and co-extruded wood plastic composites (WPCs) with BF/HDPE composite shell were successfully prepared and their mechanical, morphological and thermal properties characterized. The BFs had an average diameter of 7 μm with an organic surfactant surface coating, which was thermally decomposed at about 210 °C. Incorporating BFs into HDPE matrix substantially enhanced flexural, tensile and dynamic modulus without causing a noticeable decrease in the tensile and impact strength of the composites. Micromechanical modeling of tensile properties for the BF/HDPE composites showed a good fit of the selected models to the experimental data. Compared to neat HDPE, BF/HDPE composites had reduced linear coefficient of thermal expansion (LCTE) values. The use of the pure HDPE and BF/HDPE layers over a WPC core greatly improved impact strength of core–shell structured composites. However, the relatively less-stiff HDPE shell with large LCTE values decreased the overall composite modulus and thermal stability. Both flexural and thermal expansion properties were enhanced with BF reinforced HDPE shells, leading to well-balanced properties of core–shell structured material. Cone calorimetry analysis indicated that flammability performance of core–shell structured composites was improved as the BF content increased in the shell layer.     

Z-fiber influence on high speed penetration of 3D orthogonal woven fiber composites

In the current work we present a computational investigation of high speed penetration response of 3D orthogonal woven fiber composites (3D OWC) utilizing sub-unit cell, meso-level partitioned damage mechanics with the specific aim of understanding the role of Z-fibers in the mechanical response. In our model, two primary sources of nonlinearities have been addressed – one resulting from the strain rate dependence and large deformation of the composite constituents and the other from evolving failure. We reduce a number of arbitrary parameters typically present in high speed models by taking advantage of specific geometrical properties of 3D OWC which prevent extensive delamination. This property allows us to partition the structure into resin impregnated fibers assumed to be wholly responsible for the progressive damage behavior and bulk resin which is identified as the source of visco-plasticity and strain rate dependence. The fibers are modeled as anisotropic linear elastic with strain rate dependent progressive damage evolution. The resin is modeled using an advanced high strain rate large deformation Mulliken–Boyce polymer model (Mulliken and Boyce 2006) together with a terminal thermo-mechanical failure criterion. The projectile is assumed to be cylindrical, isothermal, rigid and impacting at right angles to the plate. The shape of the damaged area and the extent of penetrative damage compares favorably with experiments. We find that Z-fibers aid in improving penetration and impact resistance by both energy absorption and structural engagement. However, we also find that they are susceptible to localized de-bonding especially around the winding crowns. In addition, we found crucial differences in mechanical response in wave propagation brought about by the interplay of fiber architecture and damage with respect to simplified membrane models.Finally, the Z-fibers were found to influence the shape and nature of the damaged area in the fibers compared to layered composites where the matrix damage is spread more evenly while the fiber damage is restricted towards the fiber axes directions.     

Effect of rapid curing process on the properties of carbon fiber/epoxy composite fabricated using vacuum assisted resin infusion molding

Long processing cycle makes vacuum assisted resin infusion molding (VARIM) only suitable for low and medium volumes of production, and shortening of curing time is critical to improving the processing efficiency of automotive composite parts. In this paper, unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced composite laminates were fabricated by VARIM. Three different processes (namely quick, quick-post and preheating) were employed, in which a kind of rapid curing epoxy resin is used. The preheating of mold and fiber was conducted to shorten the filling time compared with that of quick process. Quick-post process with a post cure stage was investigated to verify the composite properties fabricated by quick process. The cycle time was 16 min for preheating process, about 30% shorter than that of quick process, simultaneously, flexural strength and interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) were respectively improved by 29% and 7% compared with those of quick process. The non-uniformity of mechanical properties at different positions along resin flow direction under preheating process was found, but the processing quality of composite was good. The preheating process is confirmed to be suitable for the improvement of processing efficiency of VARIM with good mechanical properties. In addition, the composite fabricated by quick-post process has better mechanical properties, which is attributed to the alleviation of residual stress during post curing process.

Effect of carbon nanotube waviness on the effective thermoelastic properties of a novel continuous fuzzy fiber reinforced composite

This paper deals with the investigation of the effect of carbon nanotube (CNT) waviness on the effective coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of a novel continuous fuzzy fiber reinforced composite (FFRC). This novel FFRC is composed of carbon fibers, sinusoidally wavy CNTs and epoxy matrix. The sinusoidally wavy CNTs are radially grown on the circumferential surfaces of the carbon fibers. Analytical micromechanics model based on the method of cells (MOC) approach is derived to investigate the influence of the waviness of CNTs on the effective CTEs of the FFRC. The present study reveals that if the amplitudes of the radially grown sinusoidally wavy CNTs are parallel to the axis of the carbon fiber then the thermoelastic properties of the FFRC are significantly improved over those of the FFRC being composed of straight CNTs.
