Title: Transverse impact by RCCs on S-glass and Kevlar® FRC strips

Abstract

This study aims to isolate interactions between plies and tows and reveal fundamental physics involved in transverse impact on fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) structures. Composite strips were sectioned from large panels and characterized by optical photography, three-dimensional synchrotron X-ray computed tomography, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Each strip was impacted perpendicularly by a right circular cylinder (RCC) projectile at a velocity ranging from ~ 150 to 600 m/s. The global strip behavior, as well as localized deformation and failure of the strip near the projectile corner, were both captured by high-speed optical imaging. S-Glass FRC strips were observed to fail in tension ahead of the RCC projectiles’ flat surfaces while Kevlar® FRC strips fractured at the projectile corners. The concept of critical velocity region previously used for impact on yarns was introduced to define different failure modes of each composite strip type. The strip damage extent was found to increase with the impact velocity and reach the maximum at the upper limit of the critical velocity region. Above the critical velocity region, the damage extent decreased with impact velocity. Wave propagations and load histories in the composite strips during impact were quantified and compared with Smith’s theory. Finally, critical velocities ofmore »« less

Multiscale dynamic experiments on fiber-reinforced composites with damage assessment using high-speed synchrotron X-ray phase-contrast imaging

Journal Article Gao, Jinling ; Fezzaa, Kamel ; Chen, Weinong - NDT & E International

We report fiber-reinforced composites (FRCs) have been widely used as protection materials to replace heavier metals. However, predictive capabilities for the impact-induced failure of FRCs have not been well-developed. In this work, we introduced an integrated technique to visualize the dynamic failure of FRCs, with the modified Kolsky bar loading and the high-speed synchrotron X-ray phase-contrast imaging (PCI). We summarize our experimental studies across the FRCs’ structural levels by using this integrated technique, including single-fiber tensile experiments, fiber/matrix debonding experiments, and single-edge notched bending experiments on composite laminates. It is revealed that the high-speed synchrotron X-ray PCI technique possesses sufficientmore »« less

In this study, we integrated the high-speed synchrotron X-ray phase-contrast imaging (PCI) with a modified Kolsky compression bar loading platform to visualize the dynamic failure processes of cross-ply glass fiber reinforced composites (GFRCs). Four S-2 glass/SC-15 composite specimens were prepared, having similar thicknesses but different stacking sequences, namely as [0₁₂/90₁₂], [90₁₂/0₁₂], [0₈/90₈/0₈], and [90₈/0₈/90₈]. Three-dimensional synchrotron X-ray computed tomography and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were employed to examine the microstructures and quantify the fiber volume fractions. Each specimen was notched and subjected to a dynamic three-point flexural loading. The onset of cracking close to the notch tip, crack propagation inmore »« less

Real-time damage characterization for GFRCs using high-speed synchrotron X-ray phase contrast imaging

Here, we report the application of high-speed synchrotron X-ray phase contrast imaging (PCI) in real-time damage characterization for glass fiber reinforced composites (GFRCs) subjected to dynamic loading. Dynamic single-edge notched bending (DSENB) experiments on pre-notched S-2 GFRCs were performed on a modified Kolsky compression bar. During loading, the synchrotron X-ray beam penetrated through the composite specimen from the side to detect damage evolution inside the material. Entire dynamic events were recorded by a high-speed camera as image sequences.0° and 90° unidirectional and cross-ply composites were investigated. An optical imaging technique was also employed to capture similar dynamic events in comparisonmore »« less

Interlocked fabric and laminated fabric Kevlar 49/epoxy composites

Conference Guess, T R ; Reedy, Jr, E D

The mechanical behavior of a novel interlocked fabric reinforced Kevlar 49/epoxy composite has been measured and compared to those of a laminated Kevlar 49 fabric composite (which served as a reference material). Both composites were 5.0 mm thick, contained the same 50% in-plane fiber volume fraction and were fabricated in a similar manner using the same Dow DER 332 epoxy, Jeffamine T403-hardened resin system. The reference material (Material 1) was reinforced with seven plies of Dupont style 1033 Kevlar 49 fabric. A photomicrograph of a section polished parallel to one of the fiber directions is shown.

Influence of weave architecture on mechanical response of SiC_f-SiC_m tubular composites

Journal Article Nance, James ; Subhash, Ghatu ; Sankar, Bhavani ; ... - Materials Today Communications

Due to their high resistance to radiation damage and elevated temperature, silicon carbide fiber-reinforced, silicon carbide matrix composites (SiC_f-SiC_m) are identified as potential cladding structures for use in nuclear reactors. In this study, four composite architectures with varying ply numbers along the thickness direction and different biaxial or triaxial plain weave orientations at either 45° or 60°, were systematically evaluated under various stress states to assess the influence of weave architecture on mechanical performance. Experiments were conducted on SiC_f-SiC_m composite tubes under tensile hoop, axial compression, and rotating flexural loading to evaluate the mechanical response and investigate the failure modesmore »« less
