复合材料层合板单钉双剪连接挤压强度的一种工程估算方法

将上限理论应用到复合材料层合板单钉双剪连接挤压强度分析中, 把连接结构的位移场划分为动态区域(层合板)和静态区域(紧固件), 并认为失效发生在位移可动场和不动场之间的钉孔边受挤压部分。由于受挤压孔孔边各层应力状态不一样, 受挤压孔边各层的失效区域和失效模式也各不相同。从宏观上研究复合材料层合板单钉连接孔边的失效区域和失效模式, 结合上限理论提出了一种估算复合材料单钉连接挤压强度的工程算法。通过与试验结果对比, 发现该方法能较好地预测出复合材料单钉双剪连接挤压强度。

提出考虑层合板面内(纤维和基体失效)和层间失效的复合材料连续损伤力学模型,对螺栓接头的渐进失效行为进行预测。基于Tsai-Wu强度准则,发展可以判定复合材料面内和层间失效的强度准则。采用幂指数衰减材料退化模型模拟复合材料的损伤扩展过程。建立连续损伤力学模型用以研究0°铺层比例和螺栓直径对复合材料螺栓接头挤压性能的影响,预测结果与实验结果吻合。结果表明:0°铺层比例过高,接头发生剪切破坏,降低连接结构承载能力;增大螺栓直径,层合板损伤受到抑制,可提高复合材料螺栓接头的挤压强度。      

层合板连接结构挤压强度测试方法的研究

利用单钉单剪层合板连接结构挤压性能测试方法和单钉双剪层合板连接结构挤压性能测试方法 (ASTM D 5961A/B),对T700/5429开孔层合板螺栓连接结构的挤压性能进行试验研究,分析不同测试方法对开孔层合板连接结构挤压性能的影响。研究表明:两种试验方法中层合板连接构件均在连接孔处出现有效的挤压破坏形式,但单剪连接试验的稳定性差,影响因素较多,试验数据的离散性较大,且测得的连接结构的极限挤压强度和偏移挤压强度均低于双剪试验的结果。因此,双剪试验方法更适合用于复合材料层合板连接结构设计中挤压许用值的测量。

A novel predictive model for mechanical behavior of single-lap GFRP composite bolted joint under static and dynamic loading

Mechanical connection of composite is critical due to its complicated meso-structure and failure mode, which has become a bottleneck on reliability of composite material and structure. Although many researches on composite bolted joints have been carried out, the theory and experiment on mechanical behavior of such a joint structure under dynamic loading were rarely reported. Here, we propose a novel predictive model for quasi-static and dynamic stiffness of composite bolted joint by introducing the strain rate dependent elastic modulus into the mass spring model. Combined with the composite laminate theory and Tsai-Hill theory, the present model was capable of predicting the strain rate dependent stiffness and strength of the composite bolted joint. Quasi-static and impact loading experiments were carried out by Zwick universal hydraulic testing machine and split Hopkinson tension bar, respectively. The stiffness and strength predicted by our model showed good accordance with the experiment data with errors below 12% under quasi-static loading and below 30% under impact loading. The results indicated that under impact loading, stiffness and strength of the composite bolted joint were significantly higher than their quasi-static counterparts, while the failure mode of the joint structure trended towards localization which was mainly bearing failure. Among various lay-up ratios studied, the optimal lay-up ratio for quasi-static and dynamic stiffness was 0:±45:90 = 3:1:1.

复合材料拉挤方管型材螺栓节点承载力试验

Experimental investigation of damage progression and strength of countersunk composite joints

An experimental investigation is conducted into the damage progression and strength of bolted joints with fibre-reinforced composite laminates and countersunk fasteners. The main goal of the experimental investigation is to characterise the effect of the countersink geometry on the load-carrying capacity of single lap joints in comparison to the straight-shank case. The effects of bolt torque, clearance and countersink height ratio on the damage progression and joint strength are also studied. Experimental tests and detailed microscopy studies are conducted on a bearing test specimen with a straight-edged hole, and several single-lap joint configurations with countersunk fasteners. It is found that introduction of the countersunk hole roughly halves the bearing stress, and causes delamination for some configurations. This delamination is primarily located at the start of the countersink region, though is found to be triggered by other damage mechanisms and has only minor influence on the results. Bolt torque increases the density of through-thickness damage though limits its extension from the hole edge, whilst bolt clearance causes localisation of the damage region. Increasing the ratio of the countersink depth to the laminate thickness reduces the extent of bearing and promotes bending, with a change to net section failure at large ratios.     

Improving bearing performance of composite bolted joints using z-pins

The effect of z-pins on the bearing properties and damage tolerance of composite bolted joints is experimentally studied in this paper. The region around bolt-holes in carbon/epoxy laminates was reinforced in the through-thickness direction with different volume contents and sizes of fibrous z-pins. Bearing test results show that the z-pins improved the bearing stiffness (by 7.5–9.6%), ultimate load (7.7–12.8%), failure strength (7.4–9.8%), and elastic strain energy absorption to bearing failure (8.5–16.3%) of the composite joints. The bearing properties increased at a quasi-linear rate with the z-pin content, but were not dependent on pin diameter. Stiffness is improved by z-pins increasing the through-thickness tensile modulus around the bolt-hole of the joint. Post-mortem microstructural examination of the failed joint specimens revealed that z-pins improve the bearing strength by reducing cracking near the bolt-hole via an interlaminar bridging toughening mechanism that involves debonding and frictional sliding of pins within the damaged region. The elastic strain energy to failure is increased by the through-thickness stiffening and toughening provided by the z-pins. This study proves that the reinforcement of bolt-holes with z-pins increases the bearing properties without the weight penalty incurred with the traditional strengthening method of thickening the laminate around holes.     

Optimum bolted joints for hybrid composite materials

The optimum bolted joints for hybrid composite materials composed of glass-epoxy and carbon-epoxy under tensile loading were investigated. The design parameters considered for the bolted joints were ply angle, stacking sequence, the ratio of glass-epoxy to carbon-epoxy, the outer diameters of washers and the clamping pressure. As bearing failure was desirable for bolted joints, the geometry of the bolted joint specimen was designed to undergo bearing failure only.

By inspecting the fracture surfaces of the specimens it was found that delamination on the loaded periphery of the holes and extensive damage on the edge region constrained by a washer occurred. To assess the delamination of the hybrid composite materials, three-dimensional stress analysis of the bolted joint was performed using a commercial finite-element software and compared with the experimental results.     

Pin-bearing strength of glass mat reinforced plastics

An experimental investigation was carried out, in order to find simple analytical methods for the prediction of pin-bearing strength of glass mat reinforced plastics fabricated by hand lay-up.The specimens tested exhibited different failure modes, consisting of net-tension, cleavage, and bearing, depending on the geometry adopted.The parameters affecting the bearing strength were the ratio of the specimen width to the hole diameter D, and the ratio of the edge distance to D. The maximum bearing strength was attained when a pure bearing failure happened. The latter was the only safe failure mode: after its occurrence, the joint was still able to support about 70% of its virgin strength. The experimental data obtained were used to assess a simple procedure for the calculation of the joint load carrying capacity, previously proposed.Since a large scatter was found in the bearing strength of the material, the data were analysed statistically, assuming a probability of failure varying according to a two-parameter Weibull distribution. An excellent agreement was found between the experimental results and the theoretical model. Similar conclusions were drawn applying the previous approach to the residual strength after bearing failure.A limited amount of tests was performed to verify the influence of possible damage induced during hole drilling on the bearing behaviour. It was found that a 20% decrease in bearing strength occurs when delamination is induced by inaccurate drilling. However, the residual bearing strength was substantially unaffected by the drilling damage.
