ICCM - V; Proceedings of the fifth international conference on composite materials, San Diego, CA, July 29-August 1, 1985
The present conference considers such topics as residual stress effects on the strength of metal matrix composites, thermal cycling damage in SiC whisker-reinforced aluminum, the failure modes of laminates, biaxial fatigue damage of composites, the service life of aramid fibers under constant stress, fracture in particle dispersion composites, novel epoxy resin formulations, and a process for the metallization of carbon fibers. Also discussed are robotic processing of composites, ropes and cables as composite linear tensile materials, fiber-reinforced SiC, structural problems in ceramic matrix composites, the interface and matrix optimization of sintered ceramic composites, SiC fiber-reinforced glass-ceramic composites, the degradation of carbon fibers by molten aluminum, and the damage tolerance of thermoplastic-matrix graphite fiber-reinforced composites. Further topics encompass failure processes in carbon-reinforced aluminum composites, interlaminar fracture mechanisms in a thermoplastic matrix composite laminate, filament-winding process models, the effect of trigger geometry on the energy absorption of composite tubes, aeroelastic tailoring in aircraft design, the mechanical behavior of three-dimensional woven fiber composites, the postbuckling behavior of curved composite panels, moisture effects and damage in composites, the behavior of aramid fiber yarns under transverse impact, and the development status of bismaleimide resins for composites.
