Fatigue Behavior of 3D Braided Composites Containing an Open-Hole
polymers Article Fatigue Behavior of 3D Braided Composites Containing an Open-Hole Shuangqiang Liang 1,2 , Qihong Zhou 1, Haiyang Mei 3, Ge Chen 1,* and Frank Ko 2 1 Department of Mechanical Engineering, Donghua University, Shanghai 200051, China; [email protected] (S.L.); [email protected] (Q.Z.) 2 Department of Material Engineering, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z4, Canada; [email protected] 3 School of Mechatronic Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin 150001, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 9 July 2020; Accepted: 18 August 2020; Published: 21 September 2020 Abstract: The static and dynamic mechanical performances of notched and un-notched 3D braided composites were studied. The effect of longitudinal laid-in yarn was investigated in comparison with low braiding angle composites. The specimens were fatigue tested for up to millions of cycles, and the residual strength of the samples that survived millions of cycles was tested. The cross-section of the 3D braided specimens was observed after fatigue loading. It was found that the static and fatigue properties of low angle 3D braided behaved better than longitudinally reinforced 3D braided composites. For failure behavior, pure braids contain damage better and show less damage area than the braids with longitudinal yarns under fatigue loading. More cracks occurred in the 3D braided specimen with axial yarn cross-section along the longitudinal and transverse direction. Keywords: textiles; 3D braided; notched; fatigue; failure 1. Introduction Three-dimensional braided composites, due to their proven damage tolerance, delamination free properties, and the ability to generate complex network structures in composites, continue to attract academic and industrial researchers’ interest in a wide variety of matrix types, covering carbon (CCC), ceramics (CMC), metal (MMC) and polymer (PMC) matrix composites [1]. -
Textile Reinforced Structural Composites for Advanced Applications
Chapter 4 Textile Reinforced Structural Composites for Advanced Applications Nesrin Sahbaz Karaduman, Yekta Karaduman, Huseyin Ozdemir and Gokce Ozdemir Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.68245 Abstract Textile-reinforced composites are increasingly used in various industries such as aero- space, construction, automotive, medicine, and sports due to their distinctive advantages over traditional materials such as metals and ceramics. Fiber-reinforced composite mate- rials are lightweight, stiff, and strong. They have good fatigue and impact resistance. Their directional and overall properties can be tailored to fulfill specific needs of different end uses by changing constituent material types and fabrication parameters such as fiber volume fraction and fiber architecture. A variety of fiber architectures can be obtained by using two- (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) fabric production techniques such as weav- ing, knitting, braiding, stitching, and nonwoven methods. Each fiber architecture/textile form results in a specific configuration of mechanical and performance properties of the resulting composites and determines the end-use possibilities and product range. This chapter highlights the constituent materials, fabric formation techniques, production methods, as well as application areas of textile-reinforced composites. Fiber and matrix materials used for the production of composite materials are outlined. Various textile production methods used for the formation of textile preforms are explained. Composite fabrication methods are introduced. Engineering properties of textile composites are reviewed with regard to specific application areas. The latest developments and future challenges for textile-reinforced composites are presented. Keywords: textile-reinforced composites, fiber architectures, textile production methods, advanced applications, engineering properties © 2017 The Author(s). -
