Recycling of Fiber-Metal Laminates

Advanced Materials Research, 2011
Fiber metal laminates provide superior mechanical properties over conventional metal alloys. However, they show a very poor recyclability due to its composite nature. Unique recycling technique is developed to recycle both the glass fiber and the aluminum alloy. The process consists of a thermal delamination and an alloy refining step.

Applications of fiber‐metal laminates

Polymer Composites, 2000
Abstract Advanced composite materials and fiber‐metal laminates (FMLs) have the potential to offer significant improvements in weight savings and durability in airframe structures. FMLs are an advanced hybrid material system consisting of metal layers bonded with fiber‐reinforced polymer layers.

Fiber metallic glass laminates

Journal of Materials Research, 2010
The fabrication and properties of fiber metallic glass laminates (FMGL) composite composed of Al-based metallic glasses ribbons and fiber/epoxy layers were reported. The metallic glass composite possesses structural features of low density and high specific strength compared to Al-based metallic glass and crystalline Al alloys.

Dynamic Characterization of a Fiber-Metal Laminate

Key Engineering Materials, 2013
The mechanical strength of a fiber-metal laminate is not so well explored at high strain rates, although its constituents are prone to exhibit such effects. In this paper, we describe an investigation of aluminium-fiber glass material using the Split Hopkinson bar device.

The Bearing Strength of Fiber Metal Laminates

Journal of Composite Materials, 2006
The bearing strength, in particular the edge distance sensitivity, of several fiber metal laminates of the GLARE family is experimentally evaluated. The behavior of the fiber layer is investigated in detail to obtain a better understanding of its failure mode.

The fracture properties of environmental-friendly fiber metal laminates

Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, 2011
The tensile and impact properties of environmental-friendly composites and FMLs have been investigated. Of the four composites investigated here, a SRPP composite offered superior properties to basalt-, flax-, and hemp fiber-reinforced PP composites. Adding aluminum layers to the outer surfaces of the composites resulted in a significant enhancement in

Electro-Magnetic Forming of Fiber Metal Laminates

Key Engineering Materials, 2019
The paper presents the results of forming rifts in five-layer metal polymer laminates by electro-magnetic forming. During the experimental studies the discharge energy of the electro-magnetic machine was varied in such a way as to achieve different depths of the rift.

The fracture properties of a smart fiber metal laminate

Polymer Composites, 2007
AbstractThis paper investigates the interfacial, tensile, and fatigue properties of a novel smart fiber‐metal laminate (FML) based on a nickel‐titanium (Ni‐Ti) shape memory alloy and a woven glass fiber reinforced epoxy. Initial tests, using the single cantilever beam (SCB) geometry, have shown that this unique system offers high values of metal ...

Fatigue crack growth in fiber-metal laminates

Science China Physics, Mechanics and Astronomy, 2013
Fiber-metal laminates (FMLs) consist of three layers of aluminum alloy 2024-T3 and two layers of glass/epoxy prepreg, and it (it means FMLs) is laminated by Al alloy and fiber alternatively. Fatigue crack growth rates in notched fiber-metal laminates under constant amplitude fatigue loading were studied experimentally and numerically and were compared ...
