复合材料层合板低速冲击损伤响应建模综合研究−实验关联与评估
Low velocity impact (LVI) experiments are performed to provide correlations with the simulation results based on numerical modeling of the intralaminar matrix damage and interlaminar delamination damage of composite laminates. The good agreement between the numerical simulation and experimental results provided validation of the numerical modeling approach. The validated numerical modeling is then used in the parametrical assessment of the influence of material properties and model- related parameters on the global LVI deformation responses and the evolution characteristics of the intralaminar and interlaminar damage. It is observed that the element deletion method is not suitable to resolve the element distortion problem induced by the progressive damage. The numerical convergence problem caused by element distortion can be resolved with appropriate selection of threshold value of the critical damage parameter without element deletion. The parametrical numerical investigations showed that the variations of material properties and parameters related to interlaminar damage exhibited significant influence on the LVI global deformation responses and progressive damage evolutions. Meanwhile, insignificant influence of the material properties related to the intralaminar damage was observed for the normal variations within material scatters.
在对复合材料层板层间基体损伤和层间分层损伤进行数值模拟的基础上,进行了低速冲击(LVI)实验,以提供与仿真结果的相关性。数值模拟结果与实验结果吻合较好,验证了数值模拟方法的有效性。利用验证后的数值模拟,对材料性能和模型相关参数对LVI整体变形响应的影响以及层内和层间损伤的演化特征进行了参数化评估。结果表明,单元删除法不适用于解决渐进式损伤引起的单元变形问题。在不删除单元的情况下,适当选择临界损伤参数的阈值可以解决单元畸变引起的数值收敛问题。参数化数值研究表明,材料性能和层间损伤相关参数的变化对LVI整体变形响应和渐进损伤演化有显著影响。同时,材料散射体内部的正常变化对层间损伤相关的材料性能影响不显著。

L-PBF加工的杂化颗粒增强Al-Cu-Mg复合材料具有较高的强度和疲劳性能
This study highlights the successful manufacturing of a crack-free, dense, hybrid ex-situ/in-situ particle reinforced (Ti+B4C)/Al-Cu-Mg composite, fabricated by laser powder bed fusion and exhibiting exceptional mechanical performance. In its as-built (AB) state, the composite displays a unique microstructure characterized by equiaxed grains with an average grain size of 1.0 ± 0.3 μm, notable interdendritic microsegregation of Cu, Mg, Mn, and Fe, randomly distributed ex-situ added Ti and B4C particles featuring a surface interaction layer with the metal matrix, and in-situ formed reinforcing particles, such as TiB2 and TiC. After subjecting the material to hot isostatic pressing (HIP) and subsequent aging treatment, dissolution of interdendritically segregated elements occurs, and precipitation of Al2Cu, Al12Mg17, and Al-Fe-Cu-Mn phases is observed. Significantly enhanced fatigue performance is recorded, reaching to 107 cycles at 250 MPa in AB and 330 MPa in HIP state, marking a 32% improvement. The current study highlights the intricate relationship between the different microstructural features in AB and HIPed state, leading to fracture during tensile and fatigue loading conditions.
本研究成功制备了一种无裂纹、致密、非原位/原位混合颗粒增强(Ti+B4C)/Al-Cu-Mg复合材料,该复合材料采用激光粉末床熔合制备,具有优异的力学性能。在原位(AB)状态下,复合材料表现出独特的微观结构:平均晶粒尺寸为1.0±0.3 μm的等轴晶,枝晶间存在明显的Cu、Mg、Mn和Fe微偏析,随机分布的原位添加Ti和B4C颗粒与金属基体形成表面相互作用层,以及原位形成的TiB2和TiC等增强颗粒。经热等静压(HIP)和时效处理后,枝晶间分离元素发生溶解,析出Al2Cu、Al12Mg17和Al-Fe-Cu-Mn相。其疲劳性能显著提高,在AB状态下可达到250 MPa的107次循环,在HIP状态下可达到330 MPa,提高了32%。目前的研究强调了AB和HIPed状态下不同的显微组织特征之间的复杂关系,导致拉伸和疲劳加载条件下的断裂。

Plant fibers are a class of biomass resources one of most abundant materials on earth. The bast fiber, as one of the plant fibers with superior specific stiffness and strength, has received constant attention in the field of biocomposites for various industrial sectors.

电泳沉积碳纳米管基复合材料界面的纳米力学表征
Carbon nanotube (CNT) addition to composite materials can offer both nanoscale reinforcement and a multifunctional element due to their extraordinary mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) offers a scalable processing technique to incorporate CNTs into conventional fiber-reinforced polymer composites (FRPCs), facilitating the production of unique nanoscale structures in the critical interphase region. In this study, CNTs functionalized with polyethyleneimine (CNT-PEI) were deposited onto a planar substrate via EPD followed by the infusion of epoxy matrix in order to replicate the nanocomposite interphase region present in nanomodified FRPCs. The nanocomposite films have thicknesses ranging from several hundred nanometers to a few microns to represent different fiber-matrix interphase regions found in FRPCs. The morphology and mechanical performance of CNT-PEI/epoxy nanocomposites are examined using atomic force microscopy (AFM) in both tapping and nanoindentation modes. The EPD creates a homogeneously distributed porous CNT network bridged by PEI, forming the pathway of epoxy resin infusion through interconnected pores with diameters less than 100 nm. CNT-PEI/epoxy nanocomposites exhibited significant improvements in stiffness, hardness, and creep resistance compared to constituent porous CNT-PEI films and neat epoxy. The improvement was directly related to the ability of the load bearing CNTs chemically bonded with the epoxy matrix through the grafted PEI, providing an efficient load transfer mechanism. The chemical bond between the porous CNT-PEI and epoxy also produced far greater fracture surface in nanoscale scratch tests compared to unmodified epoxy, indicating the CNT-PEI/epoxy nanocomposite is capable of distributing load and absorbing more energy prior to fracture.
碳纳米管(CNT)添加到复合材料中,由于其非凡的机械、热学和电学性能,可以提供纳米级的增强材料和多功能元件。电泳沉积(EPD)提供了一种可扩展的加工技术,将碳纳米管结合到传统的纤维增强聚合物复合材料(frpc)中,促进了在关键相间区生产独特的纳米级结构。在本研究中,通过EPD将聚乙烯亚胺功能化的CNTs (CNT-PEI)沉积在平面基底上,然后注入环氧基,以复 制纳米改性frpc中存在的纳米复合相间区。纳米复合膜的厚度从几百纳米到几微米不等,以代表在frpc中发现的不同的纤维基质间相区域。采用原子力显微镜(AFM)对CNT-PEI/环氧树脂纳米复合材料在攻丝和纳米压痕两种模式下的形貌和力学性能进行了研究。EPD通过PEI桥接形成均匀分布的多孔碳纳米管网络,形成了环氧树脂通过直径小于100 nm的互连孔注入的途径。与组成多孔CNT-PEI薄膜和纯环氧树脂相比,CNT-PEI/环氧纳米复合材料在刚度、硬度和抗蠕变性能方面都有显著提高。这种改善与负载CNTs通过接枝PEI与环氧基化学结合的能力直接相关,从而提供了有效的负载传递机制。与未改性的环氧树脂相比,多孔CNT-PEI与环氧树脂之间的化学键也在纳米尺度划痕测试中产生了更大的破裂面,这表明CNT-PEI/环氧纳米复合材料能够在破裂前分配载荷并吸收更多的能量。

基于统计体积元的预测环氧树脂- pzt自感层的机械和电气响应的程序,用于复合材料层合板
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) techniques are being developed to continuously oversee defects in composite structures. Within this context, research is focusing on the development of new types of sensors with high sensitivity and a proper integration in the laminate.In this work, the mechanical and electrical properties of a recently developed piezoelectric composite material made of a Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) powder embedded in an epoxy matrix are evaluated with finite element simulations of plane strain Statistical Volume Elements (SVEs). The homogenized properties are then implemented in a second finite element model of a composite specimen with the embedded self-sensing material and loaded in compression. The electrical sensitivity is evaluated as a function of the distance between the signal electrodes.The results show that the finite element models with the homogenized properties have decreasing sensitivity with increasing electrodes distance, in agreement with the experimental results from another work, in which Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) laminates with the embedded piezoelectric composite are loaded in compression and tested for output signal.
结构健康监测(SHM)技术的发展是为了持续监测复合材料结构的缺陷。在这种背景下,研究的重点是开发具有高灵敏度和适当集成在层压板中的新型传感器。在这项工作中,利用平面应变统计体积元(SVEs)的有限元模拟评估了最近开发的一种由锆钛酸铅(PZT)粉末嵌入环氧树脂基体制成的压电复合材料的机械和电气性能。然后,在嵌入自传感材料并加载压缩的复合材料的第二个有限元模型中实现均匀化特性。电灵敏度作为信号电极之间距离的函数来评估。结果表明,随着电极距离的增加,具有均匀性的有限元模型的灵敏度降低,这与另一项工作的实验结果一致,该工作是对嵌入压电复合材料的玻璃纤维增强聚合物(玻璃钢)层合板进行压缩加载并测试输出信号。
