复合材料结构在承压时破坏如何演化,是其强度破坏分析的基础和核心任务。本文提出了基于连续介质损伤力学（CDM）的单向纤维增强聚合物复合材料压缩破坏渐进损伤分析（PDA）模型。建模中考虑了材料非线性行为、失效判断及损伤演化中材料性能退化等基本问题,分别对应于拉压不对称弹塑性本构关系、Puck准则、LaRC05准则及考虑破坏面方向的刚度退化方法。该模型通过用户材料子程序接口VUMAT引入到有限元软件ABAQUS中实现了有限元求解。对文献中提供的纵向、横向及偏轴压缩案例进行了数值计算并与试验数据对比。数值分析结果与试验数据吻合较好,证明了该方法的合理性和有效性,对开展多向层合板压缩破坏分析富有参考价值。      

In situ observation of kink-band formation in a unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced plastic by X-ray computed tomography imaging

A compression test of a unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) rectangular coupon was performed in an X-ray computed tomography (CT) system. Internal compressive failure of the CFRP was observed under loading. Two-dimensional fiber microbuckling developed non-uniformly in the specimen, and enlarged locally at one side. Fiber failure then initiated at the side edge and propagated through the whole cross section. A two-dimensional kink-band developed as a result of two-dimensional fiber microbuckling. The out-of-plane and in-plane band widths and band angles were almost the same. The coupon specimen twisted slightly owing to the two-dimensional kink-band, which resulted, macroscopically, in a transverse and through-thickness shear failure mode. The scenario of kink-band failure in a unidirectional CFRP coupon was revealed by X-ray CT imaging.     

Controlling fracture toughness of matrix for ductile fiber reinforced cementitious composites

An experimental study was carried out to find material parameters for making fiber reinforced cementitious composites (FRCC) more ductile. One of the dominant factors to control the ductility might be hidden in fracture property of matrix as well as the interface property between fiber and matrix. Therefore this study varied air content and water-binder ratio as the parameters to change the fracture property of matrix and experimentally examined their influence on the ductility of FRCC by three-point bend test with notched beams. As a result, it is concluded that fracture toughness of the matrix could be one of key parameters to control the ductility of FRCC. In case of a polyethylene fiber used in this study, the optimum value of the fracture toughness (critical strain energy release rate): G_IC of the matrix was obtained to be 7.5-8.0 N/m.

Failure mechanisms in thick composites under compressive loading

Failure mechanisms were studied in a unidirectional carbon/epoxy composite under uniform and linearly varying longitudinal compression. The first failure mechanism is shear yielding or shear failure in the matrix precipitated by initial fiber misalignment. It was shown how an initial fiber misalignment of 1.5° can produce the measured compressive strength of 1725 MPa (250 ksi). Matrix failure is followed by fiber buckling and fracture, resulting in the formation of a kink band. The kink band orientation is constant in the range of β = 20–30°, whereas the kink angle a varies from a small initial value to a maximum value of 2β. Kink band widths varied between 4 and 20 fiber diameters. Kink bands can occur on different planes which can rotate along the band. Kink band multiplication or broadening with increasing stress was observed at points where the maximum kink angle was reached.     

Compressive strength of unidirectional fiber composites with matrix non-linearity

A study has been made of the effect of fiber misalignment and non-linear behavior of the matrix on fiber microbuckling and the compressive strength of a unidirectional fiber composite. The initial fiber misalignment constituted the combined axial and shear stress state in the matrix, and the state of stress just prior to the buckling was considered to be the initial state of stress in bifurcation analysis. The expression for the critical microbuckling stress was found to be the same as that for the elastic shear-mode microbuckling stress except that the matrix elastic shear modulus was replaced by the matrix elastic-plastic shear modulus. Incremental theory of plasticity and deformation theory of plasticity were used to model the matrix non-linearity. The analysis results showed reasonable correlation with available experimental data for AS4/3501-6 and AS4/PEEK graphite composites with 2° to 4° range of initial fiber misalignment.

Characteristics of continuous unidirectional kenaf fiber reinforced epoxy composites

Kenaf fibers generally has some advantages such as eco-friendly, biodegradability, renewable nature and lighter than synthetic fibers. The aims of the study are to characterize and evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of continuous unidirectional kenaf fiber epoxy composites with various fiber volume fractions. The composites materials and sampling were prepared in the laboratory by using the hand lay-up method with a proper fabricating procedure and quality control. Samples were prepared based on ASTM: D3039-08 for tensile test and the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was employed for microstructure analysis to observe the failure mechanisms in the fracture planes. A total of 40 samples were tested for the study. Results from the study showed that the rule of mixture (ROM) analytical model has a close agreement to predict the physical and tensile properties of unidirectional kenaf fiber reinforced epoxy composites. It was also observed that the tensile strength, tensile modulus, ultimate strain and Poisson’s ratio of 40% fiber volume content of unidirectional kenaf fiber epoxy composite were 164 MPa, 18150 MPa, 0.9% and 0.32, respectively. Due to the test results, increasing the fiber volume fraction in the composite caused the increment in the tensile modulus and reduction in the ultimate tensile strain of composite.

The effect of hydrostatic pressure and loading rate on compressive failure of fiber-reinforced ceramic-matrix composites

The influence of hydrostatic confinement on compressive strength and corresponding failure mechanisms is explored for SiC-reinforced glass-ceramics tested at different strain rates. Two composite architectures (0° and 0°/90°) are studied, and their behavior is compared with that of monolithic glass-ceramic tested under similar conditions. Composite confined pressure results are interpreted in terms of fiber buckling under quasi-static conditions and fiber kinking at high pressures, and compared with monolithic (non-composite) microfracture coalescence at low pressures and shear band formation under more intense confinement. In particular, dilatational fracture within the matrix dominates composite failure at low pressures, while high pressures cause a transition to shear-dominated mechanisms based on fiber kinking.
