基于机器学习的BFRP护套损坏CFST柱承载力模型

The use of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns reinforced with basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) jackets is increasingly prevalent in construction engineering. However, BFRP jackets are prone to physical damage during joint design or maintenance, which can weaken their confinement effect on CFST columns. Consequently, the damage parameters of BFRP jackets are crucial for the reinforcement of CFST structures. In this study, past experimental data were validated using a finite element model (FEM). Building on this reliable FEM, a comprehensive database was created, consisting of 495 data points, encompassing various damage conditions such as direction, location, angle, and quantity. A method for normalizing different damage parameters was proposed to quantitatively describe their respective damage characteristics. With the exception of the circumferential slotting damage type, all other damage types resulted in a degradation of the strengthened stiffness. Six machine learning methods were then employed to establish the capacity model, where Random Forest (RF) and CatBoost significantly outperform linear models, with R2 values exceeding 0.97. SHAP analysis reveals that the scale of vertical grooves and the regional damage coefficient are key factors influencing the prediction. The research can provide a theoretical basis for the design and maintenance of BFRP-CFST columns.

玄武岩纤维增强聚合物(BFRP)护套加固钢管混凝土(CFST)柱在建筑工程中的应用越来越普遍。然而,在节点设计或维护过程中,BFRP夹套容易发生物理损伤,从而削弱了BFRP夹套对钢管混凝土柱的约束作用。因此,BFRP夹套的损伤参数对钢管混凝土结构的加固至关重要。在本研究中,使用有限元模型(FEM)验证了过去的实验数据。在此基础上,建立了一个由495个数据点组成的综合数据库,包括各种损伤情况,如方向、位置、角度和数量。提出了一种对不同损伤参数进行归一化的方法,定量描述不同损伤参数的损伤特征。除了周向开槽损伤类型外,其他所有类型的损伤都会导致强化刚度的退化。然后采用6种机器学习方法建立容量模型,其中Random Forest (RF)和CatBoost显著优于线性模型,R2值超过0.97。SHAP分析表明,垂直沟槽的规模和区域损伤系数是影响预测的关键因素。研究结果可为BFRP-CFST柱的设计和维护提供理论依据。

多向CFRP薄板拉伸拟延性及多阶段破坏过程的分析预测方法

This paper presents an analytical model for predicting the nonlinear tensile response and progressive failure modes of multidirectional laminates. The proposed method extends the unidirectional pseudo-ductility model to multidirectional laminates and captures the complete failure process by taking accounts of various failure modes, including fiber breakage, matrix transverse failure, free-edge delamination, and potential intermediate layer fragmentation and delamination. Combining the matrix nonlinearity with fiber fracture and delamination in the intermediate layer, the [±θn/0°m/±θn] configuration theoretically exhibits the highest uniaxial tensile pseudo-ductility, which is influenced by factors such as ply thickness, ply angle, and proportion of plies. Tensile testing on specimens with various thin-ply [±θn/0°2/±θn] configurations were conducted to validate the accuracy of the prediction model. The results showed a good agreement in the stress–strain responses. Furthermore, the [±30°6/0°2/±30°6] configuration exhibited intermediate ply fragmentation with a pseudo-ductile strain of 4.04 %, while other configurations with higher 0° ply proportions experienced catastrophic delamination or fracture. The Digital Image Correlation (DIC) results illustrated the strain evolution process, showing progressive delamination for the [±30°6/0°2/±30°6] configuration and catastrophic delamination for the [±30°4/0°2/±30°4] configuration. The analytical approach offers a straightforward method for capturing failure modes and stress–strain responses, facilitating pseudo-ductility design in multidirectional laminates.

本文提出了一种用于预测多向层合板非线性拉伸响应和渐进失效模式的分析模型。所提出的方法将单向伪延展性模型扩展到多向层合板,并通过考虑包括纤维断裂、基体横向失效、自由边脱层以及中间层潜在的断裂和脱层等各种失效模式,来捕捉完整的失效过程。将基体非线性与中间层的纤维断裂和脱层相结合,[±θn/0°m/±θn]结构理论上表现出最高的单轴拉伸伪延展性,其受铺层厚度、铺层角度和铺层比例等因素的影响。对具有不同薄铺层[±θn/0°2/±θn]结构的试样进行了拉伸试验,以验证预测模型的准确性。结果表明应力 - 应变响应吻合良好。此外,[±30°6/0°2/±30°6] 配置表现出中等程度的铺层破碎,其伪延性应变值为 4.04%,而其他 0°铺层比例更高的配置则经历了灾难性的分层或断裂。数字图像相关(DIC)结果展示了应变演化过程,表明[±30°6/0°2/±30°6]配置出现渐进式分层,而[±30°4/0°2/±30°4]配置则发生灾难性分层。这种分析方法为捕捉失效模式和应力应变响应提供了一种直接的方法,有助于多向层合板的伪延性设计。

通过调节聚芳醚酮界面粘合剂的分子量来增强CF/PEEK复合材料的浸渍行为和界面键合

The primary obstacle to enhancing the mechanical performance of CF/PEEK composites is the insufficient interfacial bonding strength and poor impregnation properties. The present study addresses this issue by focusing on the development of a highly heat-resistant and easily soluble poly (aryl ether ketone) (PFEEK) interfacial binder as well as a processing technology for chopped ultra-thin CF tapes. As a result, the CF/PEEK-2 composites (Mw: 12000 g/mol) exhibited optimal mechanical performance with interlaminar shear strength (ILSS), tensile strength, tensile modulus, tensile toughness, flexural strength, and flexural modulus of 86.0 MPa, 772.9 MPa, 50.2 GPa, 13.5 MJ/m3, 878.5 MPa, and 47.8 GPa, respectively, which can be attributed to the excellent impregnation properties and wettability of the CF bundles and PEEK matrix. Therefore, a heat-resistant (Tg  > 250°C; Td5% > 485°C) and diffluent PFEEK binder will provide crucial guidance for further large-scale applications of high-end CF/PEEK composites.

提高CF/PEEK复合材料力学性能的主要障碍是界面结合强度不足和浸渍性能差。本研究通过开发一种高度耐热和易溶的聚芳醚酮(PFEEK)界面粘合剂以及一种切碎超薄CF带的加工技术来解决这一问题。结果表明,CF/PEEK-2复合材料(Mw: 12000 g/mol)的力学性能最佳,层间剪切强度(ILSS)、抗拉强度、抗拉模量、抗拉韧性、抗弯强度和抗弯模量分别为86.0 MPa、772.9 MPa、50.2 GPa、13.5 MJ/m3、878.5 MPa和47.8 GPa,这主要归功于CF束和PEEK基体优异的浸渍性能和润湿性。因此,耐热(Tg  > 250°C;Td5%

DLC涂层钻头在CFRP-Ti堆钻进过程中刀具磨损的深入分析

Spurred by the growing trend towards sustainability and use of green material alternatives, Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer paired with Titanium alloys (CFRP-Ti stacks) are employed in aerospace industry for their high strength-to-weight ratio and good galvanic corrosion resistance. However, production of holes for bolts or rivets connections, imperative for components assembly depicts unmatched difficulties in their machinability due to superior mechanical characteristic and distinct nature of stack components, causing rapid tool wear and compromised hole quality. In this work, in-depth tool wear analysis of Diamond-like-Carbon (DLC) coated drills were analysed periodically to evaluate tool wear growth and associated wear mechanism while drilling of CFRP-Ti stacks. Qualitative analysis was performed after drilling set number of holes by two DLC coated drills (DLC-Ar and DLC-Bn), and results compared with uncoated solid carbide (WC) drills under similar dry machining conditions. The wear progress was observed by SEM and EDX; and for extensive wear mechanism investigation, Focused Ion Beam (FIB) cross-sections were analysed. Moreover, morphological examination of etched drills after drilling experiment was performed to observe active cutting regions for overall damage extent, gain insight about coating reminiscences and underlying wear mechanism. The results demonstrate that DLC-Bn drill showed best performance with reduced thrust forces and torque, reduced wear of cutting edges and no fracture/chipping of drill corner compared to DLC-Ar and WC drill. Although, DLC-Ar drill does alleviate corner chipping but suffer premature coating failure, undergoes intense tribo-chemical wear, removal of carbide grains and generation of highest thrust forces compared to WC drill.

在可持续发展和使用绿色材料替代品的日益增长的趋势的推动下,碳纤维增强聚合物与钛合金(CFRP-Ti堆叠)因其高强度重量比和良好的抗电蚀性而被用于航空航天工业。然而,对于组件组装来说,螺栓或铆钉连接孔的生产是必不可少的,由于堆叠组件优越的机械特性和独特的性质,它们在可加工性方面遇到了无与伦比的困难,导致工具快速磨损和孔质量受损。在这项工作中,对类碳金刚石(DLC)涂层钻头进行了深入的刀具磨损分析,以评估CFRP-Ti堆钻进过程中刀具磨损的增长及其相关磨损机制。用两种DLC涂层钻头(DLC- ar和DLC- bn)钻出一定数量的孔后进行定性分析,并将结果与未涂层的WC钻头在类似干加工条件下进行比较。通过SEM和EDX观察了磨损过程;为了进行广泛的磨损机理研究,对聚焦离子束(FIB)截面进行了分析。此外,在钻孔实验后,对蚀刻钻头进行形态学检查,观察活性切削区域的整体损伤程度,了解涂层的记忆和潜在的磨损机制。结果表明,与lc - ar和WC钻头相比,lc - bn钻头在减小推力和扭矩、减少刃口磨损和无钻头角断裂/切屑方面表现出最佳性能。尽管与WC钻头相比,lc - ar钻头确实减轻了角屑,但会导致涂层过早失效、剧烈的摩擦化学磨损、碳化物颗粒的去除以及产生最大的推力。

面向时变轴承可靠性提高的复合螺栓连接装配参数优化

Bolted connections are a common assembly form for composite structures. Different assembly parameters may lead to multiply differences in the strength of composite bolted joints. Low structural reliability is currently a key bottleneck that restricts the performance improvement of composite devices. In this study, the uncertainty characteristics of the washer structure parameters, interface friction coefficients and tightening process parameters under different machining methods, interface treatments and tightening control methods are analyzed through batch experimental tests. Then the data set with assembly parameters as input and structural bearing limit as output is constructed through batch virtual tightening- tensile experiments. The data-driven algorithm is used to construct a fast prediction model of the bearing limit, and the time-varying uncertainty analysis of the bearing limit and the bearing reliability evaluation method are established. Finally, the method is used to realize the bearing reliability improvement by regulating the uncertainty to optimize the assembly parameters. The uncertainties in the assembly parameters of the composite bolted joints obtained through experimental tests in this study can provide a reference for related researches. The established data-driven fast prediction model of bearing limits provides an effective tool for statistical analysis of bearing limits and bearing reliability assessment.

芦苇衍生生物炭复合材料的宏观微观结构工程,以实现对宽带强电磁波吸收的协同耗散能力

Achieving integration of strong electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption and wide absorption bandwidth through a single-component carbonaceous absorber is still considered a huge challenge due to the impedance mismatch and limited loss mechanisms. Herein, a reed-derived carbon/epoxy (RC/EP) composite absorber with ultra-wide absorption bandwidth and highly strong EMW absorption was fabricated by simultaneous regulation on the micro-structure of RC and establishment of macro-gradient of RC in EP matrix. The compartmentalized structure and gradient distribution of the optimized RC in the EP matrix boosted the reflection and scattering of the EMW, contributing outstanding impedance matching and synergetic EMW dissipation. Therefore, the RC/EP composite with the thickness of 2.0 mm presented a minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of −54.3 dB and an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 6.12 GHz. Varying the content and distribution of RC, the EAB of the RC/EP can cover 99.7 % of the whole Ku band. In addition, the stealth performance of RC/EP absorbing materials under actual far-field conditions is confirmed using Computer Simulation Technology (CST). This work provides a new way to realize a single-component carbonaceous absorber with both broadband and strong EMW absorbing capability, which can satisfy a wide range of applications in the fields of electronics, medical protection, and architectural invisible materials.

由于阻抗失配和有限的损耗机制,通过单组分碳质吸收器实现强电磁波吸收和宽吸收带宽的集成仍然被认为是一个巨大的挑战。通过对芦苇基碳/环氧树脂(RC/EP)的微观结构进行调控,并在EP基体中建立宏观梯度,制备了一种吸收带宽超宽、吸收EMW强度高的芦苇基碳/环氧树脂(RC/EP)复合吸收材料。优化后的RC在EP矩阵中的分层结构和梯度分布增强了EMW的反射和散射,具有良好的阻抗匹配和协同EMW耗散。因此,厚度为2.0 mm的RC/EP复合材料的最小反射损耗(RLmin)为−54.3 dB,有效吸收带宽(EAB)为6.12 GHz。改变RC的含量和分布,RC/EP的EAB可覆盖整个Ku波段的99.7 %。此外,利用计算机仿真技术(CST)验证了RC/EP吸波材料在实际远场条件下的隐身性能。本工作为实现具有宽带和强吸收EMW能力的单组分碳质吸收材料提供了一条新途径,可满足电子、医疗防护和建筑隐形材料等领域的广泛应用。

基于甲虫鞘翅的仿生晶格结构设计及压缩力学性能研究

To meet the demand for lightweight and high-strength materials in engineering applications, this research draws inspiration from the microscopic support structure of the beetle’s elytra. A novel hourglass-shaped lattice (HSL), based on biomimetic principles, was designed by extracting and transforming the hollow strut features of the beetle’s elytra. Nylon PA2200 was chosen as the matrix material for the specimen, which was fabricated using additive manufacturing and then subjected to a quasi-static compression test. The experimental results showed that the standard HSL structure (HSL-2S) possessing two connecting rods had a maximum increase in elastic modulus by 54.89 %, yield strength by 128.99 %, and compressive strength by 218.08 % as compared to the Circle, Square, and Square-incline thin-walled structures. Additionally, this research provided an in-depth analysis of the influence of design parameters, including the number of rods and the thickness of the shell, on structural performance using the method of controlled variables. The results showed that a reasonable arrangement of rods most effectively improves the mechanical performance of the structure. The research findings offered valuable design references for the development of lattice structures with excellent mechanical properties and efficient energy absorption.

模压预浸片成高纤维负载分数碳纤维增强合成环氧泡沫

This study presents a novel method for manufacturing high fibre content carbon fibre-reinforced syntactic epoxy foams by moulding prepreg platelets with hollow glass microspheres. The prepreg platelets were either (i) dry-mixed at room temperature or (ii) mixed at cryogenic temperature in liquid nitrogen with hollow glass microspheres prior to compression moulding. This approach achieves a carbon fibre volume fraction of up to 49 %, addressing the limitations of low fibre content in conventional syntactic foams. The resulting materials exhibit enhanced mechanical properties, including a compressive modulus of ∼6 GPa and ∼3.5 GPa in the in-plane and through-thickness directions, respectively. The anisotropy in mechanical properties is attributed to the anisotropic packing of the prepreg platelets. Packing simulations using PyBullet confirmed that microspheres did not disrupt platelet arrangement, maintaining a packing efficiency of ∼63 % while filling inter-platelet gaps. Although cryogenic processing improved the mixing process, its impact on mechanical performance was minimal. This study demonstrates a simple manufacturing approach to produce high performance carbon fibre reinforced porous polymer composites suitable for lightweighting applications.

本文提出了一种用中空玻璃微珠模塑预浸料片来制备高纤维含量碳纤维增强复合环氧泡沫塑料的新方法。预浸血小板要么(i)在室温下干混合,要么(ii)在压缩成型之前在液氮中与中空玻璃微球低温混合。这种方法实现了高达49 %的碳纤维体积分数,解决了传统复合泡沫中纤维含量低的局限性。所得到的材料表现出增强的机械性能,包括面内和厚度方向的压缩模量分别为~ 6 GPa和~ 3.5 GPa。其力学性能的各向异性主要归因于预浸液血小板的各向异性填充。使用PyBullet进行的填充模拟证实,微球不会破坏血小板排列,在填充血小板间隙的同时保持约63 %的填充效率。虽然低温处理改善了混合过程,但其对机械性能的影响很小。这项研究展示了一种简单的制造方法来生产高性能碳纤维增强多孔聚合物复合材料,适用于轻量化应用。

基于FBG传感器的CFRP复合材料残余应变控制固化特性响应分析

Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) in-situ monitoring systems have become an effective tool for assisting with the high-precision molding and process optimization of carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRP). This study aims to explore the underlying mechanisms by which FBG sensing signals characterize the curing behavior of CFRP. Initially, based on in-situ/non in-situ testing methods, the characteristic responsiveness of FBG sensing signals to the curing behavior of CFRP was explored. Furthermore, the feature response amplitude was used to evaluate the feature responsiveness of embedding setups (packaging structure and embedding techniques) to phase transitions. It was found that non-uniform adhesion and consolidation affected the sensor’s representation of curing shrinkage. Finally, using high characteristic response FBG sensors, the process optimal strategy for CFRP was explored. The proposed method for analyzing the characteristic response of FBG sensing signals establishes and validates the relationship between CFRP curing behaviors and signal points, as well as stage-specific amplitude changes. This research serves as a fundamental basis for accurately characterizing CFRP curing behaviors and enhancing high-precision forming process design.

坚固耐用的胶原纤维通过双交联环保慢时尚

Slow fashion, as a strategic alternative aimed at mitigating resource waste and environmental degradation in fast fashion, necessitates the development of robust and durable fibers. Collagen-based fibers have emerged as a promising option due to their moisture properties, biodegradability, and biocompatibility for durable textiles. However, these fibers encounter significant challenges in terms of mechanical strength, durability, and viability for sustainable production. In this study, robust and durable collagen-based fibers were designed using a dual cross-linking strategy and continuously prepared in situ via a low-temperature aqueous coagulation device. During wet spinning, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and aluminum chloride (AlCl3) act as the continuant and cross-linker, respectively. AlCl3 effectively chelates the carboxyl groups on the collagen molecular chains and the reactive hydroxyl groups on the PVA chains, forming a stable coordination-hydrogen bond dual cross-linking network. Optimization of the spinning parameters resulted in fibers exhibiting superior mechanical properties, with a tensile strength of 339 MPa, Young’s modulus of 12.9 GPa, and toughness of 93 MJ/m3. Additionally, these fibers demonstrate a 10.8 % moisture regain and a dyeing grade of 4, highlighting their enhanced durability and breathability. This research provides robust solutions for enduring fibers and sustainable manufacturing processes in the slow fashion sector, facilitating new opportunities for the sustainable utilization of collagen waste.

聚硅氧烷改性高岭土纳米复合涂层在纤维增强聚合物复合材料结构上的集成:第二部分——结冰/除冰、自清洁、砂纸磨损和水浸性能

Cold weather conditions such as frost, snow, and freezing rain can limit the performance of fiber-reinforced composites, commonly used in aviation, defense, automotive, and other industries, potentially causing damage. Ice accumulation on surfaces can disrupt systems and damage components. Superhydrophobic (SH) surfaces offer a solution to prevent ice formation. This study explores the development of SH nanocomposite coatings based on polysiloxane-modified halloysite nanoclay (HNC) for glass, carbon, and Kevlar composites. The coatings’ effectiveness in preventing and removing ice was evaluated through various tests, including ice adhesion and air-blowing tests. The results showed that the SH coatings enhanced ice dissipation, particularly for carbon fiber composites. Despite slight changes in water contact angle after repeated tests, the coatings retained SH properties. Self-cleaning and wear tests demonstrated that the coatings successfully repelled dust and pollutants, while maintaining mechanical durability. This work offers a promising approach to improve ice-prevention performance in critical industrial applications.

纵向压缩下三维五向编织复合材料的改进渐进损伤模型

Various failure modes of three-dimensional five-directional braided composites (3D5DBCs) under longitudinal compression have been observed, including yarn fracture and kinking, transverse inter-fiber cracking, matrix plastic deformation/fracture and fiber/matrix interfacial debonding, leading to the difficulty in predicting their mechanical properties. This study proposes an improved progressive damage model for 3D5DBCs under longitudinal compression, addressing all the observed failure modes. Then, the proposed progressive damage model is implemented in a finite element (FE) model to predict the mechanical responses and properties of 3D5DBCs under longitudinal compression. The numerical predictions in terms of compressive stress–strain relations, compressive strengths and failure modes are in good agreement with the experimental results, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed progressive damage model. Finally, the failure envelopes of 3D5DBCs under compression-shear loading are predicted using our FE model, and the effectiveness of several classical failure criteria on the strength prediction of 3D5DBCs is discussed.

三维五向编织复合材料(3D5DBCs)在纵向压缩下的破坏模式多种多样,包括纱线断裂和扭结、纤维间横向开裂、基体塑性变形/断裂和纤维/基体界面脱粘,导致其力学性能难以预测。本研究提出了一种改进的3D5DBCs在纵向压缩下的渐进损伤模型,涵盖了所有观察到的破坏模式。然后,将提出的渐进式损伤模型应用于有限元模型中,预测了3D5DBCs在纵向压缩下的力学响应和性能。在压应力-应变关系、抗压强度和破坏模式方面的数值预测与试验结果吻合较好,验证了所提渐进损伤模型的有效性。最后,利用有限元模型预测了压剪作用下3D5DBCs的破坏包络,并讨论了几种经典破坏准则对3D5DBCs强度预测的有效性。

单向碳纤维增强聚合物复合材料的冲击响应:纤维取向和体积分数的影响

This study investigates the shock wave propagation in unidirectional carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (UD-CFRP) composites, focusing on the effects of varying fibre orientations (0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90°) and fibre volume fractions (64% and 51%). Through a series of plate impact experiments at approximately 400 m/s, the results revealed that longitudinal stress was highest at 0° orientation (around 3 GPa) and decreased by nearly 50% at 90°, where the bulk response mirrored that of pure epoxy. A distinct two-wave structure, consisting of an elastic precursor and a plastic shock wave, was observed at 0° orientation and higher impact velocities, requiring a minimum stress of 3 GPa. Fibre content showed only a marginal influence on shock behaviour, with the epoxy matrix playing a dominant role at higher orientations. These findings highlight the critical role of fibre alignment and matrix properties in governing shock resistance of the composite, suggesting the need for further exploration of matrix materials and composite design optimisation.

本研究研究了单向碳纤维增强聚合物(UD-CFRP)复合材料中的冲击波传播,重点研究了不同纤维取向(0°、30°、45°、60°和90°)和纤维体积分数(64%和51%)对冲击波传播的影响。通过一系列以400 m/s左右速度进行的板冲击实验,结果表明,纵向应力在0°取向时最高(约3 GPa),在90°取向时下降近50%,其体响应与纯环氧树脂相似。在0°取向和更高的冲击速度下,观察到一种明显的双波结构,由弹性前驱体和塑性冲击波组成,所需的最小应力为3gpa。纤维含量对冲击性能的影响很小,而环氧基在高取向下起主导作用。这些发现强调了纤维取向和基体性能在控制复合材料抗震性方面的关键作用,表明需要进一步探索基体材料和复合材料设计优化。

基于深度算子网络的复合材料层合板残余应力快速估计

A deep operator network (DeepONet) is designed and developed for rapid estimation of residual stress in composite laminates, which traditionally requires intensive finite element method (FEM) calculations to calibrate the incremental hole-drilling (IHD) method used in measuring residual stresses. The proposed DeepONet model incorporates graph convolution, trigonometric series expansion, and Monte Carlo dropout to effectively learn the relationship between residual stress distribution and the corresponding deformation observed in the IHD procedure. This learning is based on FEM data from various symmetric composite laminate configurations, which are composed of eight layers of fiber-reinforced plates with possible ply orientations at −45°, 0°, 45°, and 90°. Trained on 30 configurations, the proposed model exhibits strong generalization capabilities over an additional 40 unseen configurations, achieving a forward strain prediction error of 1.59% and an inverse stress calculation error of 3.92%. These errors are within the range of experimental noise and corresponding stress uncertainty levels commonly encountered in real experiments. The performance of the model suggests the potential for establishing a comprehensive database for the IHD method as applied to composite materials, filling a significant gap in resources when compared to those available for metallic materials.

为了快速估计复合材料层合板的残余应力,设计并开发了一种深度算子网络(DeepONet),该网络传统上需要密集的有限元方法(FEM)来校准用于测量残余应力的增量钻孔(IHD)方法。提出的DeepONet模型结合了图卷积、三角级数展开和蒙特卡罗dropout,有效地学习了IHD过程中观察到的残余应力分布与相应变形之间的关系。这种学习是基于各种对称复合层压板配置的有限元数据,这些配置由八层纤维增强板组成,可能的铺层方向为 -45°、0°、45° 和 90°。 这些误差在实验噪声和实际实验中经常遇到的相应应力不确定性水平的范围内。该模型的性能表明,有可能为应用于复合材料的IHD方法建立一个综合数据库,填补与金属材料相比资源方面的重大空白。

热压下集成可穿戴设备的超稳定和可拉伸液态金属精确图案电路

Liquid metal (LM) has widespread applications in flexible wearable electronic devices. Despite this, challenges persist with LM and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) composite materials in creating flexible electronic circuits, including complex processes, limited pattern precision and material inefficiencies. This study introduced a LM composite material, TPU@LM ink, suitable for dispensing printing. By fine-tuning the ratio of LM to TPU, this ink enabled the production of micron-scale ultrastable flexible circuits. The patterned TPU@LM circuit achieved a minimum line width of 239.01 μm and conductivity of 7.5×103 S/cm, exhibiting stretchable conductivity stability (1000 cycles), thermal stability (25°C–100°C) and repairability. The hysteresis error of the sensing performance was only ±3.18% upon stretching to 400%. The circuit could be repeated 2000 times and could detect a tensile strain of 0.5%. The temperature of the TPU@LM circuit could be increased to 70.51°C, the temperature only decreased by 0.4°C after stretching 2000 times and the heating-cooling process could be cycled. Additionally, the recovery rate of TPU@LM ink was 93.8% and it could be reused. Additionally, motion monitoring and thermal therapy experiments confirmed that the TPU@LM circuit maintains stable conductivity under high temperature and pressure conditions (100°C and 20 kPa), facilitating seamless integration between the TPU@LM circuit and clothing and accessories.

液态金属在柔性可穿戴电子器件中有着广泛的应用。尽管如此,LM和热塑性聚氨酯(TPU)复合材料在制造柔性电子电路方面仍然存在挑战,包括复杂的工艺、有限的图案精度和材料效率低下。本研究介绍了一种适用于点胶印刷的LM复合材料TPU@LM油墨。通过微调LM与TPU的比例,这种墨水可以生产微米级的超稳定柔性电路。该图像化TPU@LM电路的最小线宽为239.01 μm,电导率为7.5×103 S/cm,具有可拉伸的电导率稳定性(1000次循环),热稳定性(25°C - 100°C)和可修复性。拉伸至400%时,传感性能的滞后误差仅为±3.18%。该电路可重复2000次,可检测0.5%的拉伸应变。TPU@LM电路的温度可提高到70.51℃,拉伸2000次后温度仅下降0.4℃,可循环加热-冷却过程。TPU@LM油墨回收率为93.8%,可重复使用。此外,运动监测和热治疗实验证实,TPU@LM电路在高温高压条件下(100°C和20 kPa)保持稳定的导电性,促进TPU@LM电路与服装和配件之间的无缝集成。

一种受藤壶启发的界面,用于增强碳纤维增强聚(酞嗪酮醚腈酮)复合材料的界面性能

Carbon fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin composites (CFRTPs) have gained significant recognition in industries such as rail transportation, aerospace, and wind power generation. Among these composites, carbon fiber/poly(phthalazinone ether nitrile ketone) (CF/PPENK) composite is considered to be a high potential CFRTP because of the exceptional thermal stability and solubility of its matrix. However, due to the smooth surface of CF and the limited number of reactive groups in PPENK, the CF/PPENK composite demonstrated poor interfacial properties. In this study, drawing inspiration from the strong adhesive properties of barnacle structures, three different interfacial phases were fabricated on the CF surface. In these composites, polydopamine (PDA) particles acted as “barnacle glue” and three types of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) acted as “barnacles”. The practicality and effectiveness of the design was initially verified by molecular dynamics simulations, which predicted optimal interfacial properties of the composite with PDA and 3-glycidyloxypropyl-POSS (EP) on the fiber surface (CF-PDA-EP/PPENK). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy analyses confirmed the successful combination between the “barnacle structure” and CF. The experimental results aligned well with the simulation outcomes, validating that the interfacial properties of CF-PDA-EP/PPENK were optimal. Compared to the composites with unmodified fibers, the interlaminar shear strength and interfacial shear strength of CF-PDA-EP/PPENK were enhanced by 55.56% and 210.73%, respectively. This method offers an efficient and straightforward approach to the interfacial modification of the composites.

碳纤维增强热塑性树脂复合材料(CFRTPs)在铁路运输、航空航天和风力发电等行业中获得了显著的认可。在这些复合材料中,碳纤维/聚(酞嗪酮醚腈酮)(CF/PPENK)复合材料由于其优异的热稳定性和基体的溶解度被认为是高潜力的CFRTP。然而,由于CF表面光滑,且PPENK中的反应基团数量有限,CF/PPENK复合材料表现出较差的界面性能。在本研究中,从藤壶结构的强粘接特性中获得灵感,在CF表面制备了三种不同的界面相。在这些复合材料中,聚多巴胺(PDA)颗粒充当“藤胶”,三种多面体低聚硅氧烷(POSS)充当“藤胶”。通过分子动力学模拟初步验证了该设计的实用性和有效性,预测了PDA和纤维表面3-缩水甘油酰氧丙基poss (EP) (CF-PDA-EP/PPENK)复合材料的最佳界面性能。x射线光电子能谱和扫描电镜分析证实了“藤瓶结构”与CF的成功结合,实验结果与模拟结果吻合良好,验证了CF- pda - ep /PPENK的界面性能是最优的。与未改性纤维相比,CF-PDA-EP/PPENK的层间剪切强度和界面剪切强度分别提高了55.56%和210.73%。该方法为复合材料的界面改性提供了一种简单有效的方法。

一种新型的近α高温钛合金,具有三模态组织和亚微米纳米硅化物,在室温和高温下都具有优异的力学性能

To address the persistent challenge of balancing room and elevated temperature mechanical properties in conventional near α titanium alloys, this study proposes an innovative approach through compositional design and thermomechanical treatment process optimization. A high Zr/Si containing near-α titanium alloy was developed by decreasing-temperature multidirectional forging (DMDF) and subsequent heat treatment, yielding a trimodal microstructure consisting of lamellar primary α-phase (αl), equiaxed primary α-phase (αe) and transformed β-phase (βt). This microstructure features a hierarchical dispersion of dual-scale silicides, where submicron-scale silicides are preferentially distributed along grain/phase boundaries, while nanoscale silicides are uniformly dispersed within grains. After DMDF followed by solution treatment at 950°C/40min (HT2), the alloy achieves superior room-temperature mechanical properties (UTS=1306.6 MPa, EL=7.5%), primarily attributed to synergistic strengthening effects involving multiscale precipitates (αS and dual-scale silicides), dislocation networks and activated slip systems. The alloy maintains excellent strength at elevated temperatures up to 650 °C, demonstrating a UTS of 799.8 MPa paired with an elongation of 16.2%. This sustained strength originates from strain gradient formation at α/β interfaces combined with dual-scale silicide pinning mechanisms. Additionally, the enhanced ductility at 650 °C arises from the slip bands within the α-phase and additional <c+a> dislocation activation. This design strategy of trimodal microstructure with hierarchical dispersion of dual-scale silicides provides a new perspective for tailoring high-temperature titanium alloys with balanced mechanical properties at both room and elevated temperatures.

为了解决传统近α钛合金平衡室温和高温力学性能的长期挑战,本研究提出了一种通过成分设计和热处理工艺优化的创新方法。通过降温多向锻造(DMDF)和热处理,制备了高Zr/Si含量的近α钛合金,形成了由片层初生α-相(αl)、等轴初生α-相(αe)和转变β-相(βt)组成的三模态组织。该结构具有双尺度硅化物分层分散的特点,其中亚微米尺度硅化物优先沿晶粒/相边界分布,而纳米尺度硅化物均匀分布在晶粒内。DMDF经950℃/40min (HT2)固溶处理后,合金获得了优异的室温力学性能(UTS=1306.6 MPa, EL=7.5%),这主要归功于多尺度析出相(αS和双尺度硅化物)、位错网络和活化滑移体系的协同强化效应。该合金在高达650°C的高温下保持优异的强度,显示出799.8 MPa的UTS和16.2%的延伸率。这种持续强度源于α/β界面应变梯度的形成以及双尺度硅化物钉钉机制。在650℃时,α-相内的滑移带和额外的< C +a>位错激活导致了塑性的增强。这种双尺度硅化物分层分散的三模态微观结构设计策略为定制室温和高温下力学性能平衡的高温钛合金提供了新的视角。

利用碳量子点同时改善了聚乳酸复合薄膜的降解性能、热性能和力学性能

Having porous structure, large surface area, and high carbon content of biochar facilitates interface bonding of polylactic acid (PLA) composites, but uneven dispersion by its irregular morphology is becoming a new challenge in damaging properties. Based on this, the novelty of this study is using carbon quantum dots (CQDs) to overcome the performance defects of caused PLA composites by biochar while the ultimate goal is to reveal the influence mechanism of CQDs on structure, characteristics, and properties of PLA composites based on disclosing the forming mechanism of CQDs. It was found that adding CQDs accelerated the degradation of PLA from the results of Phosphate Buffer Saline (PBS) degradation, hydrolysis, and soil degradation. PLA/CQDs composite films also showed better thermal properties due to the excellent thermal stability of CQDs, and nucleation effect of CQDs should be responsible for the improvement of PLA crystallization. Additionally, having good activity, regular morphology, and uniform size of CQDs facilitated uniform dispersion and good interface combination in PLA system and thereby improved the tensile strength, tensile modulus, and elongation at break simultaneously. As a comparison, the tensile strength, tensile modulus, and elongation at break of 1 wt% PLA/CQDs composite films are 55.00 MPa, 1.76 GPa, and 9.84%, this provides a promising, sustainable, and eco-friendly solution for reinforcing PLA composites.

生物炭具有多孔结构、大表面积和高含碳量,有利于聚乳酸(PLA)复合材料的界面键合,但其不规则形态导致的不均匀分散成为破坏性能的新挑战。基于此,本研究的新颖之处是利用碳量子点(CQDs)来克服生物炭导致PLA复合材料性能缺陷,最终目的是在揭示CQDs形成机理的基础上,揭示CQDs对PLA复合材料结构、特性和性能的影响机理。从磷酸缓冲盐(PBS)降解、水解和土壤降解的结果发现,添加CQDs加速了PLA的降解。由于CQDs具有优异的热稳定性,PLA/CQDs复合薄膜表现出较好的热性能,CQDs的成核效应可能是PLA结晶性能改善的原因。此外,CQDs具有良好的活性、规则的形貌和均匀的尺寸,有利于在PLA体系中均匀分散和良好的界面结合,从而同时提高拉伸强度、拉伸模量和断裂伸长率。相比之下,1 wt% PLA/CQDs复合膜的拉伸强度、拉伸模量和断裂伸长率分别为55.00 MPa、1.76 GPa和9.84%,这为增强PLA复合材料提供了一种有前途的、可持续的、环保的解决方案。

激光增材制造中的原位多金属合金化:简要综述

Additive manufacturing (AM) has increasingly been employed for in situ alloying, facilitating the production of multi-metallic components, often referred to as multi-metal AM (MMAM). This approach enables the design of intricate, functional, and highly customized products with superior mechanical performance. Although the advancements in MMAM in-situ alloying have lagged behind those in single-metal AM, notable progress has been achieved in this emerging field. This concise review examines in situ alloying in laser-based AM alloys over the past decade, with a particular focus on titanium (Ti)-based MMAM and other metal systems. It systematically synthesizes current insights, addressing pre-processing preparations (e.g., powder feedstock preparation and modification), in-process adjustments (e.g., alternations in alloy chemistry and parameters optimization), and numerical simulations. These elements collectively exert a profound influence on the microstructural characteristics and mechanical performance of MMAM products.

热塑性复合材料界面性能与界面厚度的关系研究

Thermoplastic composites offer exceptional characteristics—particularly weldability, superior toughness, and potential for rapid out-of-autoclave processing—that make them highly attractive for diverse applications. The temperature history during their manufacturing plays a critical role in shaping key microstructural features, including fiber–matrix interfacial properties, matrix crystallinity, and interphase morphology. These characteristics, in turn, determine the composite’s macroscale mechanical performance. In carbon fiber-reinforced low-melt polyaryletherketone (LM-PAEK™) composites, the influence of processing conditions was systematically examined by producing three distinct sample types through automated fiber placement and post-processing: (1) fast cooling followed by cold crystallization, (2) controlled cooling from melt at 2 °C/min, and (3) fast cooling at rates exceeding 10,000 °C/min. Interfacial mechanical properties and interphase size were characterized using cyclic nanoindentation push-out tests and force-modulation atomic force microscopy, revealing that specimens cooled at 2 °C/min exhibit an interphase region approximately three times thicker than that of rapidly cooled specimens, with enhanced interfacial fiber–matrix strength and fracture toughness. These findings highlight the importance of controlling the interphase thickness in thermoplastic composites.

热塑性复合材料具有特殊的特性,特别是可焊性,优越的韧性,以及快速脱离高压灭菌器加工的潜力,使其在各种应用中具有很高的吸引力。制造过程中的温度历史对形成关键的微观结构特征起着关键作用,包括纤维-基质界面特性、基质结晶度和界面形态。这些特性反过来又决定了复合材料的宏观力学性能。在碳纤维增强低熔点聚芳醚酮(LM-PAEK™)复合材料中,通过自动纤维放置和后处理生产三种不同类型的样品,系统地检查了加工条件的影响:(1)快速冷却然后冷结晶,(2)以2°C/min的速度控制熔融冷却,(3)以超过10,000°C/min的速度快速冷却。利用循环纳米压痕推出试验和力调制原子力显微镜对界面力学性能和界面相尺寸进行了表征,结果表明,在2°C/min下冷却的样品的界面相区域厚度约为快速冷却样品的3倍,界面纤维基体强度和断裂韧性增强。这些发现突出了热塑性复合材料中控制界面厚度的重要性。

超高性能混凝土与混凝土基板粘结界面行为:微观结构和微观力学性能的演变

Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is increasingly used to repair and strengthen deteriorated concrete structures. However, the crucial details of the microstructural evolution and micromechanical properties of overlay transition zone (OTZ) in composite structures are insufficiently understood. This study presents a systematic, curing-age-dependent investigation of OTZ between UHPC and concrete substrate (CS) across curing ages ranging from 1 to 28 days. A series of tests were performed to examine the hydration kinetics, grid elastic modulus, coefficient of friction, micromorphology, and 3D pore distribution of OTZ. Our findings suggest a dual-scale redefinition of OTZ: (a) a narrow OTZ affected by the wall effect and (b) a broad OTZ that encompasses the reaction zone on the CS surface, the narrow OTZ, and the air void-rich zone. The thickness of the broad OTZ is dominated by the air void-rich zone and decreases with curing age, measuring approx. 110 μm at 28 days. Ions from the fresh UHPC migrating towards the CS surface undergo mild, ongoing secondary reactions with the existing hydrates, generating additional Ca(OH)2. After 1 to 3 days of curing, an easily identifiable blend band of Ca(OH)2 and C-S-H gels and a tight bond between UHPC and CS can be seen simultaneously in the narrow OTZ. With prolonged curing (7 and 28 days), this band fades as most of Ca(OH)2 is converted into C-S-H gels due to the pozzolanic activity of silica fume. This study concludes with an in-depth discussion of the evolution mechanisms driving the microstructure and micromechanical properties of OTZ.

超高性能混凝土(UHPC)越来越多地用于修复和加固老化的混凝土结构。然而,对于复合材料结构中覆盖过渡带(OTZ)的微观组织演变和微观力学性能的关键细节还没有得到充分的了解。本研究对UHPC和混凝土基材(CS)之间的OTZ进行了系统的、与养护龄期相关的研究,养护龄期从1天到28天不等。进行了一系列测试,以检测OTZ的水化动力学、网格弹性模量、摩擦系数、微观形貌和三维孔隙分布。我们的研究结果提出了对OTZ的双重尺度重新定义:(a)受壁效应影响的窄OTZ和(b)包括CS表面反应区、窄OTZ和富空区在内的宽OTZ。宽OTZ的厚度以富气孔区为主,随龄期的增加而减小,约为。110 μm, 28天。从新鲜的UHPC迁移到CS表面的离子与现有的水合物发生温和的、持续的二次反应,产生额外的Ca(OH)2。固化1 ~ 3天后,在狭窄的OTZ中可以同时看到Ca(OH)2和C-S-H凝胶的明显共混带和UHPC与CS之间的紧密结合。随着固化时间的延长(7天和28天),由于硅灰的火山灰活性,大部分Ca(OH)2转化为C-S-H凝胶,这条带逐渐消失。最后,对OTZ的微观结构和微观力学性能的演化机制进行了深入的探讨。

基于GA-BP神经网络模型的梯度平直竹片抗弯性能分类与预测

Bamboo slices (BS) have been successfully used in bamboo winding composites due to their excellent flexural properties. However, BS with a gradient structure is prone to breakage easily during the winding process, particularly when varying thicknesses are involved. This study investigated flexural properties and size effects of BS, as well as prediction of their flexural properties. A mathematical relationship was established between fiber content of BS and its radial position, revealing an exponential decay function with an average fit quality of 0.9. The flexural strength, flexural modulus and radius of curvature of BS increased with higher fiber content. However, for BS with a thickness of 0.7 mm, the radius of curvature exhibited an inverse relationship with fiber content when the load was applied to the side of BS with fewer vascular bundles. Analysis indicated that BS with thicknesses of 0.3 mm and 0.5 mm can be considered homogeneous materials, while BS with a thickness of 0.7 mm retained the gradient structure and properties of bamboo culm wall. Additionally, BS showed a significant size effect, where thicker BS displayed lower strength due to defect effect, variation of length-thickness ratio and hoop effect. At last, a GA-BP neural network model was developed and validated as an effective tool for predicting BS flexural properties based on their radial position, achieving an accuracy of over 95%. This study provides valuable insights into the flexural properties and size effects of BS, providing a scientific foundation and technical support for the development of bamboo winding products.

竹片由于其优异的抗弯性能,已成功地应用于竹缠绕复合材料中。然而,梯度结构的BS在缠绕过程中容易断裂,特别是在涉及不同厚度的情况下。本研究探讨了BS的抗弯性能和尺寸效应,并对其抗弯性能进行了预测。建立了BS纤维含量与其径向位置之间的数学关系,显示出指数衰减函数,平均拟合质量为0.9。随着纤维含量的增加,BS的抗弯强度、抗弯模量和曲率半径增大。然而,对于厚度为0.7 mm的BS,当载荷施加在维管束较少的BS一侧时,曲率半径与纤维含量呈反比关系。分析表明,厚度为0.3 mm和0.5 mm的竹材可以认为是均匀材料,而厚度为0.7 mm的竹材则保留了竹材壁的梯度结构和特性。此外,BS具有显著的尺寸效应,其中较厚的BS由于缺陷效应、长厚比的变化和箍效应而强度较低。最后,建立了GA-BP神经网络模型,并验证了该模型是基于BS径向位置预测其弯曲性能的有效工具,准确率超过95%。本研究为竹材缠绕材料的弯曲性能和尺寸效应提供了有价值的见解,为竹材缠绕产品的开发提供了科学依据和技术支持。

利用亲水性碳纳米管海绵降低碱渣自缩水率的创新策略

Alkali-activated slag (AAS) cement is recognized as a sustainable alternative to Portland cement (PC) binders. However, its practical application in construction is hindered by significant autogenous shrinkage. This study presents an innovative internal curing strategy by incorporating a hydrophilic carbon nanotube sponge (H-CNTSP) into the AAS paste. Due to the high stiffness of the CNT framework, H-CNTSP exhibits remarkable absorption capacities for activator and pore solution, reaching 74 g/g and 67 g/g, respectively—236% higher than that of conventional superabsorbent polymer (SAP). The addition of just 0.08 wt.% H-CNTSP effectively reduces autogenous shrinkage by 71%, attributed to the sustained liquid release, as confirmed by the monitoring of internal relative humidity. Moreover, the loss in mechanical properties typically associated with internal curing agents is significantly minimized, thanks to the formation of a CNT/reaction product nanocomposite layer with enhanced stiffness. This study offers a promising solution to address the limitations of the AAS system, paving the way for its broader implementation in engineering applications.

碱活性矿渣(AAS)水泥被认为是波特兰水泥(PC)粘合剂的可持续替代品。然而,其在建筑中的实际应用受到显著的自收缩的阻碍。本研究提出了一种创新的内部固化策略,将亲水性碳纳米管海绵(H-CNTSP)掺入AAS浆料中。由于碳纳米管骨架的高刚度,H-CNTSP对活化剂和孔隙溶液的吸收能力显著提高,分别达到74 g/g和67 g/g,比传统的高吸水性聚合物(SAP)提高了236%。由于持续的液体释放,仅添加0.08 wt.%的H-CNTSP有效地减少了71%的自缩水率,正如内部相对湿度监测所证实的那样。此外,由于碳纳米管/反应产物纳米复合层的形成具有增强的刚度,机械性能的损失通常与内部固化剂相关,这大大减少了。这项研究为解决AAS系统的局限性提供了一个有希望的解决方案,为其在工程应用中的更广泛实施铺平了道路。

TH-NURBS inherit all excellent advantages of truncated hierarchical B-splines (THB-splines) and can achieve exact modeling of arbitrary complex geometry. For accurate description of complex geometry in practical engineering, multi-patch technique is introduced into isogeometric analysis, utilizing Nitsche’s method for patch coupling. In order to establish the adaptive algorithm framework, a recovery-based error estimator is presented based on TH-NURBS. The method is applied to several 3D orthotropic examples with ABAQUS solutions validating its accuracy. We also compare the computation efficiency with that obtained by uniform refinement method to show more efficient performance of the proposed adaptive method.提出了一种基于截断层次NURBS (TH-NURBS)的三维正交各向异性弹性自适应多块等几何分析方法。TH-NURBS继承了截断层次b样条(thb样条)的所有优点,可以实现任意复杂几何的精确建模。为了在实际工程中精确描述复杂的几何形状,将多补丁技术引入等高几何分析,利用Nitsche的补丁耦合方法。为了建立自适应算法框架,提出了一种基于TH-NURBS的恢复误差估计器。用ABAQUS解对几个三维正交各向异性算例进行了验证。并将该方法的计算效率与均匀细化方法的计算效率进行了比较。Bending damage of novel UV-CGFR composites for pipeline rehabilitation: Experimental characterization and numerical simulationYangyang Xia, Chao Zhang, Cuixia Wang, Jing Wang, Xinxin Sang, Peng Zhao, Hongyuan Fangdoi:10.1016/j.compstruct.2025.119065新型UV-CGFR管道修复复合材料的弯曲损伤:实验表征与数值模拟In this paper, a finite element numerical model of the bending damage of ultraviolet-cured glass fiber reinforced (UV-CGFR) composites was developed based on the results of the three-point bending test and X-ray tomography (Micro-CT), as well as infrared thermography (IRT) and other microscopic and macroscopic characterization tests. The numerical model, incorporating the three-dimensional Hashin failure criterion via the VUMAT subroutine, was established to predict the bending failure process and damage energy of UV-CGFR composites from the perspectives of fracture damage and energy dissipation. The effects of curing time, UV irradiation intensity, and loading rate on the bending properties and bending failure mechanism of UV-CGFR composites were systematically investigated. The primary failure modes observed were resin compression-tensile fractures, fiber tensile fractures, interlaminar debonding, and delamination. The bending strength and bending modulus of UV-CGFR composites increase and decrease with the increase of curing time and irradiation intensity; the bending strength increases with the loading rate, and the bending modulus is less affected by the loading rate. The temperature rise effect generated by fiber tensile fractures and interlaminar debonding was identified as a key factor contributing to the enhancement of bending strength. The temperature increase became more pronounced with higher loading rates, reaching a maximum rise of 5.2℃. Furthermore, the feasibility of UV-CGFR composites for pipeline repair was validated through pipe ring bending tests. The results show that the bending damage behaviour of UV-CGFR composites aligns well with real-world engineering applications, and the UV-CGFR composite lining repair significantly enhanced the pipeline’s load-bearing properties.本文基于三点弯曲试验和x射线断层扫描(Micro-CT)、红外热像仪(IRT)等细观和宏观表征试验结果,建立了紫外固化玻璃纤维增强(UV-CGFR)复合材料弯曲损伤的有限元数值模型。通过VUMAT子程序建立三维Hashin破坏准则的数值模型,从断裂损伤和能量耗散的角度预测UV-CGFR复合材料的弯曲破坏过程和损伤能量。系统研究了固化时间、UV辐照强度和加载速率对UV- cgfr复合材料弯曲性能和弯曲破坏机理的影响。观察到的主要破坏模式是树脂压缩-拉伸断裂、纤维拉伸断裂、层间脱粘和分层。UV-CGFR复合材料的弯曲强度和弯曲模量随固化时间和辐照强度的增加而增大和减小;弯曲强度随加载速率的增大而增大,弯曲模量受加载速率的影响较小。纤维拉伸断裂和层间脱粘产生的温升效应是提高抗弯强度的关键因素。随着加载速率的增加,升温幅度更大,最大升温幅度为5.2℃。通过管道环弯曲试验,验证了UV-CGFR复合材料用于管道修复的可行性。结果表明,UV-CGFR复合材料的弯曲损伤行为与实际工程应用非常吻合,UV-CGFR复合材料衬里修复显著提高了管道的承载性能。Theoretical and numerical study of crashworthiness of asymmetric gradient-hierarchical bi-hexagonal tubesQuanping Fu, Xiaolin Deng, Shen Xudoi:10.1016/j.compstruct.2025.119033非对称梯度分层双六角管耐撞性的理论与数值研究Previous studies have demonstrated that multi-cell bi-tubular tubes exhibit superior energy absorption capacity when compared to multi-cell tubes. In order to further enhance the energy absorption capacity of multi-cell bi-tubular tubes, this paper proposes an asymmetric gradient hierarchical bi-hexagonal tube (AGBT), which draws inspiration from the microstructure of the impact region of shrimp chelipeds and asymmetrical tree-like fractal structures. The results show that, under equal wall thickness conditions, the specific energy absorption and crushing force efficiency of the proposed 3rd order asymmetric gradient hierarchical bi-hexagonal tube (AGBT-3) are respectively 1.82 and 1.47 times higher than those of the conventional bi-hexagonal tube. Furthermore, under equal mass conditions, the specific energy absorption and crushing force efficiency of AGBT-3 are enhanced by up to 21% and 27%, respectively, in comparison to 0th order asymmetric gradient hierarchical bi-hexagonal tube (AGBT-0). These findings establish a clear advantage of the proposed AGBT-3 over AGBT-0 in terms of crashworthiness. Additionally, this study also conducts a theoretical prediction of the mean crushing force of the proposed AGBT, based on the simplified super folding element theory, and observes a good agreement between the theoretical prediction and numerical results. The outcomes of this study will serve as a valuable reference for the design and optimization of novel lightweight thin-walled energy-absorbing structures.先前的研究表明,与多细胞双管相比,多细胞双管具有优越的能量吸收能力。为了进一步提高多细胞双管的吸能能力,本文从虾螯足撞击区域的微观结构和不对称树状分形结构中汲取灵感,提出了一种不对称梯度分层双六边形管(AGBT)。结果表明,在等壁厚条件下,所提出的三阶梯度分层双六角管(AGBT-3)的比能吸收和破碎力效率分别是常规双六角管的1.82倍和1.47倍。此外,在同等质量条件下,AGBT-3的比能吸收和破碎力效率分别比0阶不对称梯度分层双六角形管(AGBT-0)提高了21%和27%。这些发现确定了拟议的AGBT-3在耐撞性方面优于AGBT-0的明显优势。此外,本文还基于简化的超折叠单元理论对所提出的AGBT的平均破碎力进行了理论预测,理论预测结果与数值结果吻合较好。研究结果将为新型轻量化薄壁吸能结构的设计和优化提供有价值的参考。Physics-informed model order reduction for laminated composites: A Grassmann manifold approachAbhilash Sreekumar, Swarup K.

This paper investigated the effect of nano SiO2-modified superabsorbent polymer (SAP-n) synergized with rice husk ash (RHA) on the shrinkage and mechanical properties of cement pastes. The water desorption process of the SAP-n/RHA composite within cement pastes was characterized using 1H NMR, isothermal calorimetry, and internal relative humidity. Moreover, the hydration kinetics and microstructure of internally cured pastes were revealed. The results demonstrated that the addition of RHA reduced the amount of water released from hybrid system before the final set, and accelerated the desorption rate of SAP afterward, effectively mitigating self-desiccation. A “three-stage” gradient water release model of SAP-n/RHA composite driven by osmotic pressure and humidity differences was proposed. The porous RHA was uniformly distributed in the matrix, especially around the SAP, contributing to internal curing at later ages while providing extra silica to repair voids and densify the pore structure. Compared to pastes containing commercial SAP, the 91-day dry shrinkage of specimens with 0.2 wt% SAP-n and 3.6 wt% RHA was reduced by 16.1% without compromising autogenous shrinkage inhibition efficiency, and the 28-day strength was increased by 20.6%.单一内固化材料的应用不能有效地平衡收缩抑制和强度发展。研究了纳米sio2改性高吸水聚合物(SAP-n)与稻壳灰(RHA)协同作用对水泥浆收缩性能和力学性能的影响。采用1H NMR、等温量热法和内部相对湿度对SAP-n/RHA复合材料在水泥浆体中的解吸过程进行了表征。此外,还揭示了内固化膏体的水化动力学和微观结构。结果表明,RHA的加入减少了混合体系终凝前的放水量,并加快了后期SAP的解吸速度,有效缓解了自干性。提出了渗透压和湿度差异驱动的SAP-n/RHA复合材料“三阶段”梯度放水模型。多孔RHA均匀分布在基体中,特别是SAP周围,有助于后期的内部固化,同时提供额外的二氧化硅来修复空隙并使孔隙结构致密化。与含有商用SAP的膏体相比,添加0.2 wt% SAP-n和3.6 wt% RHA的膏体在不影响自收缩抑制效率的情况下,91天干收缩率降低了16.1%,28天强度提高了20.6%。The synergistic regulation of micro sequence interface and macro bionic structure for superior microwave absorption performanceYunfeng Bao, Wenrui Wang, Xiaoqiang Qi, Siyao Guo, Yu Liu, Zhiqing Jia, Zuquan Jindoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112380 微观序列界面与宏观仿生结构协同调节,获得优异的微波吸收性能Micro-interface control and macro-structure design are crucial factors in achieving outstanding electromagnetic wave absorption (EMA) absorbers. However, it is still a challenge to obtain efficient EMA materials to satisfy practical applications through the synergistic regulation of the two. Herein, unique sequential interface engineering is proposed to ingeniously customize a series of FeCo nanochains (FC NCs) with various particle interface self-assembly combination modes, including face-to-face, corner-to-corner, and squeeze-to-squeeze. The dipole polarization, interfacial polarization, and magnetic coupling strength were enhanced to realize dielectric-magnetic synergies coupled with Ti3C2Tx MXene for exceptional EMA performance. The optimized squeeze-to-squeeze-shaped FeCo Nanochains/Ti3C2Tx MXene (FC3/MXene) exhibits the minimum reflection loss (RL_min) value of −60.95 dB at 1.897 mm and the reflection loss (RL) value of −51.46 dB at an ultralow thickness of 1.143 mm (The EMA efficiency exceeds 99.999%). Additionally, a bionic periodic structure inspired by the sea urchin shell was designed based on the high-performance absorber FC3/MXene, achieving the impressive value of −64.48 dB and a whole absorption band covering 2−18 GHz, thanks to its isotropic structure and high porosity. Furthermore, in radar cross-section (RCS) simulations, FC3/MXene absorbers effectively reduce the radar detection distance of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), demonstrating excellent stealth characteristics. Looking ahead, this work not only achieves strong RL intensity at ultralow thickness through sequential interface engineering but also obtains the super wide absorption band by bionic periodic structure design, opening new possibilities for diverse advanced technological applications.微界面控制和宏观结构设计是制造优异电磁波吸收器的关键因素。然而,通过两者的协同调节,获得满足实际应用的高效EMA材料仍然是一个挑战。本文提出了独特的顺序界面工程,巧妙地定制了一系列具有不同粒子界面自组装组合模式的FeCo纳米链(FC nc),包括面对面、角对角和挤压对挤压。增强了偶极极化、界面极化和磁耦合强度,实现了与Ti3C2Tx MXene的介电-磁协同作用,获得了优异的EMA性能。优化后的挤压-挤压型FeCo纳米链/Ti3C2Tx MXene (FC3/MXene)具有最小的反射损耗(RL_min)在1.897 mm处,反射损耗(RL)值为−60.95 dB,在1.143 mm的超低厚度处,反射损耗(RL)值为−51.46 dB (EMA效率超过99.999%)。此外,基于高性能吸收体FC3/MXene,设计了一种受海胆壳启发的仿生周期结构,由于其各向同性结构和高孔隙率,实现了令人瞩目的- 64.48 dB值和2 - 18 GHz的全吸收带。此外,在雷达截面(RCS)仿真中,FC3/MXene吸波器有效地缩短了无人机(UAV)的雷达探测距离,显示出优异的隐身特性。展望未来,本工作不仅通过顺序界面工程实现了超低厚度下的强RL强度,而且通过仿生周期结构设计获得了超宽的吸收带,为多种先进技术应用开辟了新的可能性。Process Optimization for Sustainable Composites from Post-Consumer PET Carpet and Recycled PET ResinSiddhesh Chaudhari, Clinton Switzer, Mohamadreza Y.

Hanan, Sudheer Bandla, Ranji Vaidyanathandoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112367 消费后PET地毯和再生PET树脂可持续复合材料的工艺优化In the United States, over 90% of discarded carpets end up in landfills, primarily due to the costly and time-consuming process of mechanically separating carpet fibers from their backing. This research uses a novel approach for reusing post-consumer polyethylene terephthalate (PET) by developing recycled composites from post-consumer PET carpet (cPET) and recycled PET (rPET) resin sourced from bottle discards via compression molding. Incorporating whole carpets in the process significantly reduces preprocessing costs and time. A design of experiments approach was employed with variables such as temperature, pressure, dwell time, and composition to optimize mechanical properties. A two-level fractional factorial design for screening followed by a three-level full factorial design was performed to identify suitable processing parameters to achieve better mechanical properties. The optimal molding processing conditions for rPET/cPET (30/70) composites were identified as 270 °C for 250 s under 1 MPa, which yielded a flexural strength of 54.6 ± 6.0 MPa and a flexural modulus of 3180 ± 110 MPa, as verified through reproducibility testing on 10 samples (2 samples each from 5 molding experiments). These enhanced mechanical properties showcase the potential of rPET/cPET composites for structural applications. The composites made up of 30% recycled PET resin and 70% post-consumer PET carpet show that a larger fraction of carpet offers a sustainable alternative approach to reduce landfill waste from carpets and develop environmentally friendly materials with good structural integrity.在美国,超过90%的废弃地毯最终都被扔进了垃圾填埋场,这主要是因为机械分离地毯纤维的过程既昂贵又耗时。本研究采用了一种新的方法来再利用消费后的聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯(PET),通过压缩成型从消费后的PET地毯(cPET)和回收的PET (rPET)树脂中开发再生复合材料。将整块地毯纳入加工过程,大大减少了预处理成本和时间。采用温度、压力、停留时间、成分等变量的实验设计方法优化材料的力学性能。采用两水平分数因子设计进行筛选,然后进行三水平全因子设计,以确定合适的加工参数,以获得更好的机械性能。确定了rPET/cPET(30/70)复合材料的最佳成型工艺条件为270℃、250 s、1 MPa,弯曲强度为54.6±6.0 MPa,弯曲模量为3180±110 MPa,并通过10个样品(5个成型实验各2个样品)的重复性测试进行验证。这些增强的机械性能展示了rPET/cPET复合材料在结构应用中的潜力。由30%的再生PET树脂和70%的消费后PET地毯组成的复合材料表明,更大比例的地毯提供了一种可持续的替代方法,可以减少地毯的填埋废物,并开发具有良好结构完整性的环保材料。Preparation of a multifunctional bio-based adhesive inspired by the structure of dragonfly wingsGenghao Zheng, Shuting Zhang, Yuanwei Wang, Anbo Pan, Bangke Xu, Yantao Xu, Xiaochun Zhangdoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112374 受蜻蜓翅膀结构启发的多功能生物基胶粘剂的制备Traditional formaldehyde-based adhesives have problems such as dependence on petrochemical resources and release of formaldehyde. Therefore, preparing multifunctional bio-based adhesives with excellent mechanical properties to replace formaldehyde-based adhesives plays an important role in environmental sustainability. In this paper, a soy protein adhesive that combines high toughness and strength was developed inspired by dragonfly wings. This strategy is based on a rigid neural network (CNF) framework and SPI-based dynamic network system. Functionalized nanofibers (CNF@TP) were tightly connected to SPI through Schiff base reaction and strong hydrogen bonding. The dry and wet shear strength of plywood prepared with modified adhesive reached 1.89 MPa and 1.25 MPa respectively, which were 117.2% and 119.3% higher than SPI adhesive. The inorganic mineral component (ZnO) formed an organic-inorganic hybrid structure with soy protein, which improved the mildew resistance, flame retardancy and UV resistance of the adhesive. The storage time of the liquid/solid adhesive was extended to 30/50 days respectively. Cross-linker (TGA) strengthened the cross-linked network, the moisture absorption rate of the adhesive decreased to 11.9%, the residual rate increased to 56.8%, improved the water resistance. This bionic structure engineering (BSE) provides a research idea for the development of multifunctional composite materials with strong performance. This technology is expected to be applied to many fields such as plywood industry, aerospace and cultural relics restoration.传统的甲醛基胶粘剂存在对石化资源的依赖和甲醛释放等问题。因此,制备具有优异力学性能的多功能生物基胶粘剂替代甲醛基胶粘剂对环境可持续性具有重要意义。本文以蜻蜓翅膀为灵感,研制了一种高韧性和高强度的大豆蛋白胶粘剂。该策略基于刚性神经网络框架和基于spi的动态网络系统。功能化纳米纤维(CNF@TP)通过席夫碱反应和强氢键与SPI紧密相连。改性胶粘剂制备的胶合板干、湿抗剪强度分别达到1.89 MPa和1.25 MPa,比SPI胶粘剂分别提高117.2%和119.3%。无机矿物组分(ZnO)与大豆蛋白形成有机-无机杂化结构,提高了胶粘剂的抗霉性、阻燃性和抗紫外线性。液体/固体胶粘剂的保存时间分别延长至30/50天。交联剂(TGA)增强了交联网络,胶粘剂的吸湿率降至11.9%,残留率提高至56.8%,提高了耐水性。这种仿生结构工程(BSE)为开发高性能多功能复合材料提供了研究思路。该技术有望应用于胶合板工业、航空航天、文物修复等诸多领域。Preparation of metal-based microencapsulated phase change material and its application in a battery for thermal management and thermal runaway protectionYuanyuan Chen, Xiaojie Guo, Chenwu Shi, Xin Zhou, Deqiu Zoudoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112376 金属基微胶囊化相变材料的制备及其在电池热管理和热失控保护中的应用The performance and safety of lithium-ion batteries are significantly affected by temperature, and thermal management and thermal runaway protection are necessary. The temperature ranges of battery thermal management and thermal runaway based on phase change materials (PCMs) are inconsistent. A single organic PCM and hydrated salt PCMs have application limitations. In this article, low temperature phase change microcapsules (MEPCM) with thermal management capabilities and medium temperature MEPCM with thermal runaway protection functions have been innovatively prepared respectively, and the performance of their mixture was studied. The results showed that the latent heat value of low temperature MEPCM was 231.4 J/cm3, indicating high thermal reliability. The latent heat value of the medium temperature MEPCM was 426.1 J/cm3, exhibiting good thermal shock resistance and thermal response characteristic. At an ambient temperature of 35 °C and a discharge rate of 4C, the maximum temperature of the battery based on MEPCM mixture is 54.8 °C. At room temperature, MEPCM mixture delayed the time of thermal runaway by 30%. After 100 s, the outside temperature of the battery was 68.6 °C, decreasing the heating rate by 81.4%. The MEPCM mixture possesses flame retardancy and didn’t release heat, greatly improving the safety of power battery operation.锂离子电池的性能和安全性受温度影响较大,需要进行热管理和热失控保护。基于相变材料的电池热管理和热失控的温度范围不一致。单一有机PCM和水合盐PCM具有应用局限性。本文分别创新制备了具有热管理功能的低温相变微胶囊(MEPCM)和具有热失控保护功能的中温相变微胶囊(MEPCM),并对其混合物的性能进行了研究。结果表明,低温MEPCM潜热值为231.4 J/cm3,具有较高的热可靠性。中温MEPCM的潜热值为426.1 J/cm3,具有良好的抗热震性和热响应特性。在环境温度为35℃,放电倍率为4C的条件下,MEPCM混合物电池的最高温度为54.8℃。在室温下,MEPCM混合物使热失控时间延迟30%。100s后,电池外部温度为68.6℃,升温速率降低81.4%。MEPCM混合物具有阻燃性,不释放热量,大大提高了动力电池的运行安全性。Green Facile fabrication of Flame-retardant Straw Cellulose Nanofiber Laminate with Enhanced Mechanical StrengthRui Yang, Jing Zhou, Xiaoqi Yang, Haiyang Lu, Linghui Qi, Yue Ni, Changlei Xia, Jianzhang Lidoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112377 提高机械强度的阻燃秸秆纤维素纳米纤维层压板的绿色工艺制备Natural biomass resources are highly valued for their high biodegradability, high sustainability, and easy modification. However, their large-scale application is limited by their flammability. Numerous flame-retardant modification methods have been developed. However, they are limited by low performance and poor mechanical properties. In this study, a novel method was proposed for preparing flame-retardant cellulose nanofiber laminates, focusing on raw material selection, modification method, and laminated structure. The silica in natural straw was retained, and the fibers were swollen using the green and environmentally friendly deep eutectic solvent, resulting in the partial dissolution of cellulose. This process reduced the energy consumption of mechanical treatment during the preparation of straw cellulose nanofibers. Sulfonic acid groups were grafted onto the straw cellulose to impart flame-retardant properties to the material. By leveraging the laminated structure to block heat transfer between layers, the material achieved excellent flame-retardant performance and mechanical properties. The flame-retardant straw cellulose nanofiber laminate achieved an LOI of 61.9%. The results of thermogravimetric analysis showed that the residual carbon content can reach 37.6%, which is 40.3% higher than that of the CNFL. This study presents a novel approach to developing flame-retardant biomass boards.天然生物质资源具有生物可降解性高、可持续性强、易修饰等特点。然而,它们的可燃性限制了它们的大规模应用。许多阻燃改性方法已经被开发出来。然而,它们受到性能低和机械性能差的限制。本文提出了一种制备阻燃型纤维素纳米纤维层压板的新方法,重点从原料选择、改性方法、层合结构等方面进行了研究。利用绿色环保的深共晶溶剂,保留天然秸秆中的二氧化硅,膨胀纤维,使纤维素部分溶解。该工艺降低了秸秆纤维素纳米纤维制备过程中机械处理的能耗。将磺酸基团接枝到秸秆纤维素上,使材料具有阻燃性能。通过利用层压结构来阻止层之间的热量传递,该材料获得了优异的阻燃性能和机械性能。秸秆纤维素纳米纤维复合阻燃材料的LOI值为61.9%。热重分析结果表明,其残余碳含量可达37.6%,比CNFL高40.3%。本研究提出了一种开发阻燃生物质板的新途径。Unprecedented laser metal deposition (LMD) biofabrication of nano-ZrO2 reinforced structure-function-integrated Ti-Cu composite: fabrication, wear, biofunctionalityWenze Wang, Xin Li, Chaochun Zhao, Andrej Atrens, Ming-Chun Zhaodoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112379 史无前例的激光金属沉积(LMD)生物制备纳米zro2增强结构-功能集成Ti-Cu复合材料:制备、磨损、生物功能The significance of biomedical applications of Ti alloys is underscored by their widespread utilization as implantable materials. Ti alloy implants are sensitive to fretting wear, which easily leads to early failure. Wear is a major factor in determining the long-term clinical performance. Based on structure-function-integrated concept, this work aims to explore an improved wear-resistant self-antibacterial 3ZrO2/Ti-3Cu composite using pure Ti powder, Cu powder and nano-ZrO2 powder via laser metal deposition (LMD). The forming quality, wear performance, and biofunctionality of LMDed 3ZrO2/Ti-3Cu samples were characterized through specific electron microscopy, mechanical wear tests, and in vitro cell tests. A slightly lower energy density resulted in the best fabrication quality. The spherical morphology of the powders compensated for the different thermodynamic properties of nano-ZrO2, achieving higher densification. The addition of nano-ZrO2 into Ti-3Cu refined grains, increased yield strength by 67% (from 979 MPa to 1637 MPa), microhardness by 62% (from 291 HV0.5 to 472 HV0.5), and Young&#39;s modulus by 17%, maintaining the modulus within the range of human bone. It also reduced wear rate by 36% (from 0.425 mm3/Nm to 0.366 mm3/Nm) and biocorrosion rate by 32% (from 3.0×10-8 A/cm2 to 1.8×10-8 A/cm2), indicating less corrosion-wear. In addition, LMDed 3ZrO2/Ti-3Cu showed excellent biocompatibility and bacteriostatic rate &gt; 99% against E. coli. Nano-ZrO2 enhanced strength, wear and corrosion resistance, while Cu-rich precipitates and Cu ion release provided synergistic antibacterial activity. This work provides a new horizon into the LMD fabrication of improved wear-resistant self-antibacterial structure-function-integrated implant materials.钛合金作为植入式材料的广泛应用强调了其生物医学应用的重要性。钛合金种植体对微动磨损敏感,易导致早期失效。磨损是决定长期临床表现的主要因素。基于结构功能一体化的理念,本工作旨在通过激光金属沉积(LMD)技术,以纯Ti粉、Cu粉和纳米zro2粉为原料,探索一种改进的耐磨自抗菌3ZrO2/Ti- 3cu复合材料。通过特定的电子显微镜、机械磨损试验和体外细胞试验表征了LMDed 3ZrO2/Ti-3Cu样品的成形质量、磨损性能和生物功能。较低的能量密度导致了最佳的制造质量。粉末的球形形貌补偿了纳米zro2不同的热力学性质,实现了更高的致密化。在Ti-3Cu细化晶粒中加入纳米zro2,屈服强度提高67%(从979 MPa提高到1637 MPa),显微硬度提高62%(从291 HV0.5提高到472 HV0.5),杨氏模量提高17%,模量保持在人骨的范围内。同时,它还将磨损率降低了36%(从0.425 mm3/Nm降至0.366 mm3/Nm),生物腐蚀率降低了32%(从3.0×10-8 A/cm2降至1.8×10-8 A/cm2),表明腐蚀磨损减少。此外,LMDed 3ZrO2/Ti-3Cu具有良好的生物相容性,对大肠杆菌的抑菌率高达99%。纳米zro2增强了强度、耐磨性和耐腐蚀性,而富Cu沉淀和Cu离子释放具有协同抗菌活性。本研究为改进的自抗菌结构-功能一体化种植体材料的LMD制备提供了新的思路。Real-time Process Monitoring and Prediction of Flow-front in Resin Transfer Molding Using Electromechanical Behavior and Generative Adversarial NetworkDahun Lee, In Yong Lee, Young-Bin Parkdoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112382 基于机电行为和生成对抗网络的树脂传递成型过程实时监控与流前预测Lightweight materials have been utilized for several decades, offering advantages in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and wind turbine manufacturing. Among these, fiber-reinforced plastics are widely utilized owing to their excellent mechanical properties. Resin transfer molding—a method for manufacturing thermoset composites—is susceptible to dry spots, which degrade the mechanical properties. Accurately identifying and predicting the flow front can enhance process robustness, ensuring defect-free composites. This study presents a novel approach for identifying flow fronts in real time and predicting flow-front scenarios using a tree model and a generative adversarial network (GAN). First, the changes in electrical resistance during infusion were investigated by examining the electromechanical behavior. Subsequently, by leveraging the electrical resistance data, linear equations were formulated to identify the locations of flow fronts between the electrodes. Finally, possible flow-front configurations were identified across three sections, encompassing 17 scenarios, using the developed identification model. Flow-front prediction was conducted using the tree model, which evaluated all 17 scenarios and tracked the most relevant scenarios according to probability. Additionally, the GAN generated more realistic flow-front configurations, enhancing both the identification and prediction of the flow. This model can reflect the racetracking effect without considering the permeability of the fiber preform, significantly reducing the computational cost compared with numerical simulations. Moreover, the flow-front prediction model effectively mirrored the experimental results, outperforming numerical simulations in both adaptability and speed. By utilizing this model, operators can identify defects such as dry spots in real time and predict their locations using the predicted flow-front configuration.轻量化材料已经使用了几十年,在航空航天、汽车和风力涡轮机制造等行业提供了优势。其中,纤维增强塑料因其优异的力学性能而得到广泛应用。树脂转移成型-一种制造热固性复合材料的方法-容易受到干燥点的影响,从而降低机械性能。准确识别和预测流锋可以提高工艺的鲁棒性,确保复合材料无缺陷。本研究提出了一种利用树模型和生成对抗网络(GAN)实时识别流锋并预测流锋情景的新方法。首先,通过检测电力学行为,研究了输液过程中电阻的变化。随后,通过利用电阻数据,制定线性方程来确定电极之间流动锋的位置。最后,使用开发的识别模型,在三个部分中确定了可能的流前配置,包括17种场景。流前预测采用树形模型进行,该模型评估了所有17种情景,并根据概率跟踪了最相关的情景。此外,GAN生成了更真实的流前结构,增强了对流的识别和预测。该模型可以在不考虑纤维预制棒渗透性的情况下反映赛道跟踪效应,与数值模拟相比显著降低了计算成本。此外,流锋预测模型有效地反映了实验结果,在适应性和速度上都优于数值模拟。通过利用该模型,操作人员可以实时识别缺陷,如干点,并使用预测的流前配置预测其位置。Towards ultra-fast and high strength structural repair of damaged thermoplastic composites: ultrasonic weldingTian Zhao, Shuaiheng Xu, Yu Feng, Chenqian Zhang, Yixing Huang, Xianben Ren, Ying Lidoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112385 损伤热塑性复合材料的超快速、高强度结构修复:超声焊接Owing to its high weld strength, rapid processing cycles and absence of foreign materials at the weldline, ultrasonic welding is considered as a promising technique for joining thermoplastic composites, as an alternative to traditional mechanical fastening and adhesive bonding. More importantly, this technique provides a potential possibility for repairing damaged composite structures with an extremely short duration. This paper presents a preliminary study on the feasibility of repairing an open-hole thermoplastic composite structure by using an external patch ultrasonically welded with different time durations. Both tensile and flexural behaviors of the repaired composite specimens were investigated. The damage processes of different specimens were synchronously characterized by using acoustic emission and digital image correlation techniques. Both the experimental and numerical results demonstrated a significant improvement in the mechanical performance of the weld-repaired specimens compared to the unrepaired ones. Additionally, the weld-repair patch effectively reduced the stress concentration in the periphery of the damaged area.超声波焊接具有焊接强度高、加工周期快、焊缝无异物等优点,被认为是热塑性复合材料连接的一种很有前途的技术,可以替代传统的机械紧固和胶粘接。更重要的是,该技术提供了在极短的时间内修复受损复合材料结构的潜在可能性。本文对利用超声焊接不同时间的外贴片修复热塑性复合材料开孔结构的可行性进行了初步研究。对修复后的复合材料试件的拉伸和弯曲性能进行了研究。采用声发射和数字图像相关技术对不同试样的损伤过程进行了同步表征。实验和数值结果均表明,焊接修复后试件的力学性能较未修复试件有显著改善。此外,焊补片有效地降低了损伤区域外围的应力集中。Isothermal Crystallization of Poly(ether ether ketone)/Carbon Fiber CompositesXiaoshi Zhang, Ryan Flanigan, Gijs de Kort, Ralph H. Colby, Alicyn M. Rhoadesdoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112386 聚醚醚酮/碳纤维复合材料的等温结晶The quiescent crystallization kinetics of Poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) carbon fiber composites are highly relevant to polymer processing techniques that operate no shear or low shear conditions, such as 3D printing and automated fiber placement. This study investigates the isothermal crystallization kinetics of neat PEEK and its carbon fiber counterparts. We analyzed one commercial grade with 30 wt% carbon fiber and two lab-compounded grades with lower carbon fiber contents (5 and 15 wt%) using X-ray Micro Computed Tomography (μCT) and calorimetry technologies. μCT analyzed the volume fractions of PEEK resin, carbon fibers, and voids formed during processing. The carbon fiber content was also determined based on the volumetric fraction of each component. Using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and fast scanning calorimetry (FSC), the overall crystallization kinetics were extracted for neat PEEK and its carbon fiber composites over a wide range of crystallization temperatures from 160 °C to 330 °C. All kinetics data were fitted well using the Hoffman-Lauritzen model to extract values for U∗, K0, and KG. The results indicate that the energy barriers associated with chain segment mobility U∗ and nucleation KG do not significantly change with the presence of carbon fiber. However, K0, associated with the nucleation constant, decreases linearly with increasing non-resin volume fraction. Morphological investigations using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fast Scanning Calorimetry - Atomic Force Microscopy (FSC-AFM) demonstrate the presence of weak surface nucleation and impingement effects from carbon fiber on PEEK resin crystallization. Based on these observations, we propose a simple mathematical model to describe the crystallization peak time of fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites, in which fibers and voids primarily contribute to the slowdown of crystal growth.聚醚醚酮(PEEK)碳纤维复合材料的静止结晶动力学与无剪切或低剪切条件下的聚合物加工技术密切相关,例如 3D 打印和自动纤维铺放。本研究对纯 PEEK 及其碳纤维复合材料的等温结晶动力学进行了研究。我们采用 X 射线微计算机断层扫描(μCT)和热分析技术对一种含 30%(质量分数)碳纤维的商用级材料以及两种含碳纤维量较低(5%和 15%)的实验室合成级材料进行了分析。μCT 分析了加工过程中 PEEK 树脂、碳纤维和孔隙的体积分数。碳纤维含量也是根据各组分的体积分数来确定的。通过差示扫描量热法(DSC)和快速扫描量热法(FSC),我们获得了纯 PEEK 及其碳纤维复合材料在 160°C 至 330°C 广泛结晶温度范围内的整体结晶动力学。所有动力学数据均采用霍夫曼 - 劳里森模型进行拟合,以提取 U、K0 和 KG 的值。结果表明,碳纤维的存在对链段运动能垒 U 和成核能垒 KG 没有显著影响。然而,与成核常数相关的 K0 随非树脂体积分数的增加呈线性下降。通过扫描电子显微镜(SEM)和快速扫描量热法 - 原子力显微镜(FSC-AFM)进行的形态学研究证明,碳纤维对聚醚醚酮(PEEK)树脂结晶存在弱表面成核和碰撞效应。基于这些观察结果,我们提出一个简单的数学模型来描述纤维增强热塑性复合材料的结晶峰时间,在该模型中,纤维和孔隙主要导致晶体生长速度减慢。Review on the 3D printing technology and application of magnetic materials: Material-Process-Structure-ApplicationHaorui Zhai, Xiaodong Li, Shuzhou Yu, Jianlei Wang, Ying Chang, Jun Li, Xinghua Cheng, Lei Zhou, Yikun Fang, Tao Liu, Xiaojun Yu, Minggang Zhu, Bo Li, Wei Lidoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112387磁性材料3D打印技术及应用综述:材料-工艺-结构-应用Magnetic materials, as a type of functional material, play an important role in many fields.

The results show that with the continuous development of new 3D printing technologies for magnetic materials, more innovations will be created in magnetic materials, processes, structures, and applications.磁性材料作为一种功能材料,在许多领域发挥着重要作用。然而,传统的制造工艺仅限于形成简单的几何形状,这限制了磁性材料的应用和发展。3D打印技术以其低成本、设计灵活、快速成型等优势,为磁性材料的开发、结构设计和应用提供了新的途径,将成为磁性材料领域最具发展前景的技术之一。本文针对3D打印技术,讨论了先进的磁性材料,如软磁材料、硬磁材料及其复合材料;分析了磁场辅助3D打印等新型制造工艺;介绍了仿生结构和蜂窝结构等创新结构;并介绍了其在软机器人、4D打印、药物输送等方面的典型应用。分析了磁性材料3D打印中“材料-工艺-结构-应用”之间的相互作用关系,并对三者之间的最优适应性进行了比较和评价。最后,对当前的挑战和未来的机遇进行了总结和讨论。结果表明,随着磁性材料3D打印新技术的不断发展,磁性材料、工艺、结构和应用将会有更多的创新。Construction of “rigid-and-flexible” interphase by waterborne carboxylated polyimide sizing agent for interfacial enhancement of carbon fiber/poly ether ether ketone (CF/PEEK) compositesWentao Chen, Ke Zhang, Shuai Wang, Chunhai Chen, Xiaogang Zhao, Hongwei Zhou, Daming Wangdoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112388 水性羧化聚酰亚胺施胶剂构建“刚柔”界面增强碳纤维/聚醚醚酮(CF/PEEK)复合材料界面The application of polyimide (PI) as an effective sizing agent for carbon fiber (CF) in CF/poly ether ether ketone (PEEK) composites represents a promising approach. Here, a series of novel carboxylated waterborne PI sizing agents with different aliphatic ratios were designed to construct a rigid-flexible gradient interphase for the purpose of promoting interfacial adhesion between CF and PEEK. It was observed that the mechanical properties of the composites were optimal when the molar ratio of rigid diamine monomer to flexible diamine monomer reached 7:3. Significant augmentation was observed in various mechanical and interfacial properties, including tensile modulus (25.6%), tensile strength (19.8%), flexural modulus (28.5%), flexural strength (15.8%), impact strength (24.3%), and IFSS (57.8%). Furthermore, the tensile strength of the composites exhibited a greater increase (27.2%) at elevated temperatures, thus indicating that the role of the interfacial layer was more pronounced at high temperatures. The interphase was analysed by peak force quantitative nanomechanical imaging (PF-QNM) mode of atomic force microscopy (AFM), the results indicated the formation of a modulus transition zone between the CF and PEEK. This zone exhibited a gradient change of modulus, enabling the composite to transfer and distribute applied loads more effectively when subjected to external forces. Consequently, the findings of this study demonstrated the potential of waterborne PI sizing agents for application on CF, offering a promising avenue for surface modification of high-performance CF/PEEK composites.聚酰亚胺(PI)作为碳纤维(CF)的有效施胶剂应用于CF/聚醚醚酮(PEEK)复合材料是一种很有前途的方法。本研究设计了一系列具有不同脂肪族比例的新型羧基水性PI施胶剂,以构建刚柔梯度界面相,以促进CF和PEEK之间的界面粘附。当刚性二胺单体与柔性二胺单体的摩尔比为7:3时,复合材料的力学性能最佳。拉伸模量(25.6%)、拉伸强度(19.8%)、弯曲模量(28.5%)、弯曲强度(15.8%)、冲击强度(24.3%)和IFSS(57.8%)等力学和界面性能均有显著提高。此外,复合材料的抗拉强度在高温下有较大的提高(27.2%),表明界面层的作用在高温下更为明显。利用原子力显微镜(AFM)峰力定量纳米力学成像(PF-QNM)模式对界面相进行分析,结果表明CF和PEEK之间形成了模量过渡区。该区域表现出模量的梯度变化,使复合材料在受到外力时能够更有效地传递和分配施加的载荷。因此,本研究的发现证明了水性PI施胶剂在CF上的应用潜力,为高性能CF/PEEK复合材料的表面改性提供了一条有前途的途径。Machine learning-assisted prediction of mechanical properties in WC-based composites with multicomponent alloy bindersHui Ren, Kaiyue Wang, Kai Xu, Ming Lou, Gaohui Kan, Qingtao Jia, Changheng Li, Xuelian Xiao, Keke Changdoi:10.1016/j.compositesb.2025.112389 多组分合金粘结剂wc基复合材料力学性能的机器学习辅助预测The development of WC-based composites capable of withstanding harsh environments has traditionally been hindered by time- and cost-intensive trial-and-error strategies. In this study, a machine learning (ML) framework was developed to rapidly predict the hardness and fracture toughness of WC-based composites, focusing on alternatives to traditional Co binder, which are prone to corrosion in marine environment. Experimental data were collected from published literature and used to train three ML models, i.e., Backpropagation Neural Networks, Gradient Boosting Decision Tree, and Support Vector Regression. The results showed that the BPNN algorithm demonstrated the good predictive performance, achieving R2 values of 0.913 and 0.906 for hardness and fracture toughness, respectively. The predictive accuracy was experimentally validated using samples prepared with binders composed of Co, Ni, Fe, or their alloys. SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) analysis revealed that grain size significantly impacted the hardness model of WC-based composites, while electronegativity was the most influential chemical descriptor affecting the hardness and fracture toughness models. This proposed framework shows effectiveness of ML approach for the development of multicomponent alloy binders in WC-based composites, with superior mechanical properties and enhanced applicability in harsh environments.传统上,能够承受恶劣环境的wc基复合材料的开发一直受到时间和成本密集的试错策略的阻碍。在这项研究中,开发了一个机器学习(ML)框架,以快速预测wc基复合材料的硬度和断裂韧性,重点是替代传统Co粘合剂,这些粘合剂在海洋环境中容易腐蚀。实验数据从已发表的文献中收集,并用于训练三个ML模型,即反向传播神经网络,梯度增强决策树和支持向量回归。结果表明,BPNN算法具有较好的预测性能,对硬度和断裂韧性的预测R2分别为0.913和0.906。用Co, Ni, Fe或其合金组成的粘合剂制备样品,实验验证了预测的准确性。SHapley加性解释(SHapley Additive explanation)分析表明,晶粒尺寸对wc基复合材料的硬度模型有显著影响,而电负性是影响硬度和断裂韧性模型的最重要的化学描述符。该框架显示了ML方法在wc基复合材料中开发多组分合金粘结剂的有效性,具有优越的机械性能和增强的恶劣环境适用性。Composites Science and TechnologyDrawing of tungsten fiber tows impregnated with Al/Epoxy matrix composites: interfacial bonding and failureZhenhui He, Enling Tang, Wenjin Yao, Ruizhi Wangdoi:10.1016/j.compscitech.2025.111140 Al/环氧基复合材料浸渍钨纤维束的拉伸:界面结合和失效The most widely used high-performance resin matrix composites generally follow the microparticle-fiber-epoxy resin system structure. However, due to the difference in material properties of each component, the failure of fiber-reinforced resin matrix composites is often caused by its internal load inhomogeneity. In this paper, digital image technology is used to quantify the micro-failure form of the interface between fiber and epoxy resin matrix based on droplet solidification experiment and tungsten fiber impregnation tensile experiment. The upper and lower limits of coupling between fibers in fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composites were quantified, and a universal prediction method for the strength of fiber-reinforced particle-doped resin matrix composites was developed. The research results show that: A small amount of Al particles inclusion can enhance the affinity between the epoxy resin matrix and the tungsten material, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the fiber reinforced resin matrix material. When the amount of aluminum particles is 15vol%, the viscous flow performance of the epoxy resin is similar to that of the pure epoxy resin. The load-bearing efficiency will be generated by the mutual nesting at the interface in the epoxy resin-tungsten fiber structure, where the maximum insertion depth is 9.08μm and the average insertion depth is 4.69μm. The maximum tensile load shows a trend of increasing first and then decreasing with the increase of aluminum particle volume content, reaching its maximum value at a volume inclusion of 40vol%. The closer the epoxy resin matrix to the fiber, the greater the effect on the interfacial chelation effect, in which the effective interphase thickness is 0.128 times the fiber radius. The energy absorption of pure epoxy resin-single fiber bonding phase is 138.45MJ/m3, while the energy absorption of the effective bonding area between epoxy matrix and tungsten fiber is between 76.52∼224.95MJ/m3 when aluminum particles are mixed.目前应用最广泛的高性能树脂基复合材料一般遵循微粒-纤维-环氧树脂体系结构。然而,由于各组分材料性能的差异,纤维增强树脂基复合材料的失效往往是由其内部载荷的不均匀性引起的。本文在液滴凝固实验和钨纤维浸渍拉伸实验的基础上,采用数字图像技术定量分析了纤维与环氧树脂基体界面的微观破坏形式。量化了纤维增强聚合物基复合材料中纤维间耦合的上下限,建立了一种通用的纤维增强颗粒掺杂树脂基复合材料强度预测方法。研究结果表明:少量Al颗粒的夹杂可以增强环氧树脂基体与钨材料之间的亲和力,从而改善纤维增强树脂基体材料的力学性能。当铝颗粒掺量为15vol%时,环氧树脂的粘性流动性能与纯环氧树脂相似。环氧树脂-钨纤维结构界面处的互嵌套将产生承载效率,其中最大嵌套深度为9.08μm,平均嵌套深度为4.69μm。最大拉伸载荷随铝颗粒体积含量的增加呈现先增大后减小的趋势,在体积夹杂量为40vol%时达到最大值。环氧树脂基体离纤维越近,对界面螯合效果的影响越大,其中有效界面厚度为纤维半径的0.128倍。纯环氧树脂-单纤维结合相的吸能为138.45MJ/m3,而混合铝颗粒时环氧基与钨纤维有效结合面积的吸能在76.52 ~ 224.95MJ/m3之间。Role of the aspect ratio of graphene oxide (GO) on the interface and mechanical properties of vitrimer/GO nanocompositesShenzhi Shen, Ian A. Kinloch, Cristina Vallésdoi:10.1016/j.compscitech.2025.111151 氧化石墨烯长径比对玻璃聚合物/氧化石墨烯纳米复合材料界面和力学性能的影响Epoxy vitrimers are raising an increasing interest for the formulation of multifunctional nanocomposites due to their reversible covalently crosslinked network capable of self-arranging upon stimulation without losing integrity, providing them with new properties such as self-healing or shape memory. The incorporation of functionalized nanomaterials to epoxy vitrimers can further improve and promote those functions, due to the formation of strong reversible vitrimer/nanofiller interfaces. Herein, how the addition of graphene oxide (GO) flakes with different aspect ratios affects such interface, hence the properties, of vitrimer/GO nanocomposites was investigated and compared to those rendered by their epoxy analogues. An evaluation of the nature of the GO/polymers interface performed by Raman spectroscopy confirmed the existence of stronger interfaces between both GOs and the vitrimer relative to the epoxy, which led to better dispersions of the flakes and enhanced mechanical properties, independently of the flakes’ aspect ratio. Thicker GO flakes were found, however, to render stronger interfaces, hence better mechanical properties, than thinner flakes with higher aspect ratio. The stress-relaxation behaviour of both matrices was found to improve by adding GO materials as fillers, with this result being more pronounced for the vitrimer systems and independent on the aspect ratio of the GO flakes. These findings suggest not only that vitrimer/GO nanocomposites can lead to improved mechanical and stress-relaxation properties relative to their epoxy analogues, but also that selecting a GO with a specific aspect ratio allows the design of nanocomposites with specific structure and mechanical properties through a control of the filler-polymer interface.由于环氧树脂的可逆共价交联网络能够在受到刺 激时自排列而不失去完整性,从而为其提供了诸如自修复或形状记忆等新特性,因此,人们对多功能纳米复合材料的配方越来越感兴趣。功能化纳米材料掺入环氧树脂可以进一步改善和促进这些功能,因为形成了强可逆的玻璃聚合物/纳米填料界面。本文研究了不同长宽比氧化石墨烯(GO)薄片的加入如何影响这种界面,从而影响玻璃聚合物/氧化石墨烯纳米复合材料的性能,并将其与环氧类似物进行了比较。通过拉曼光谱对氧化石墨烯/聚合物界面的性质进行了评估,证实了相对于环氧树脂,氧化石墨烯和玻璃体之间存在更强的界面,这导致了更好的薄片分散性和增强的机械性能,而与薄片的长宽比无关。然而,较厚的氧化石墨烯薄片比较薄的高纵横比的薄片具有更强的界面,因此具有更好的机械性能。通过添加氧化石墨烯材料作为填料,两种基质的应力松弛行为都得到了改善,这一结果在玻璃体体系中更为明显,并且与氧化石墨烯薄片的长径比无关。这些发现表明,玻璃聚合物/氧化石墨烯纳米复合材料的机械性能和应力松弛性能优于环氧树脂类似物,而且选择具有特定宽高比的氧化石墨烯可以通过控制填料-聚合物界面来设计具有特定结构和机械性能的纳米复合材料。Modified rule of mixtures and Halpin-Tsai models applied to PCL/NiMnInCo 4D printed composites.

In devices based on 4D printed composite materials, the interaction between the active microparticles and the printable polymer matrix plays a critical role for the optimal functionality. Key parameters in these materials are the elastic misfit coefficient, which monitors internal stresses, and elastic energy transfer, which determines the ability to transfer strain from the microparticles to the surrounding matrix. In this work, the temperature-dependent shear modulus of PCL/Ni45Mn36.7In13.3Co5 4D printed composites is analysed using the modified rule of mixture (ROM) and Halpin-Tsai (HT) models. The molecular flow caused by the polymer chain movement under oscillatory mechanical stress at relatively elevated temperatures is examined and discussed using these models. Additionally, the effect of an external direct magnetic field on the shear modulus is also analysed. Finally, the internal stresses in the composite materials resulting from the martensitic transformation in the active microparticles are studied through a modified mean-field model based on the Eshelby’s inclusion theory.4D打印可以制造各种形状的复杂智能部件。在基于4D打印复合材料的器件中,活性微粒与可打印聚合物基体之间的相互作用对于优化功能起着关键作用。这些材料的关键参数是弹性失配系数(监测内应力)和弹性能量传递(决定将应变从微粒传递到周围基体的能力)。本文采用改进的混合规则(ROM)和Halpin-Tsai (HT)模型分析了PCL/Ni45Mn36.7In13.3Co5 4D打印复合材料的温度相关剪切模量。用这些模型研究和讨论了在相对较高温度下振荡机械应力下聚合物链运动引起的分子流动。此外,还分析了外加磁场对剪切模量的影响。最后,通过基于Eshelby夹杂理论的修正平均场模型,研究了活性微粒马氏体相变对复合材料内应力的影响。 来源:复合材料力学仿真Composites FEM
