On the measurement of residual stresses in fibre metal laminates
The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology, 2021During the manufacturing of fibre-reinforced laminates, undesired phenomena are produced, among which the residual stresses need investigation and analysis. The authors have previously presented the research done on the predictive modelling and measurement of the distortions happening during the manufacturing of fibre metal laminates (FML).

Process Chains for Fibre Metal Laminates
Advanced Materials Research, 2014The combination of fibre-reinforced materials with metals is defined as a fibre metal laminate. These material composites have already been a subject of research for several years. The long manufacturing time resulting from the period required for consolidation of the thermosetting resin is a major disadvantage of the fibre metal laminates previously ...

Crack closure in fibre metal laminates
Fatigue & Fracture of Engineering Materials & Structures, 2007ABSTRACTGLARE is a fibre metal laminate (FML) built up of alternating layers of S2‐glass/FM94 prepreg and aluminium 2024‐T3. The excellent fatigue behaviour of GLARE can be described with a recently published analytical prediction model.This model is based on linear elastic fracture mechanics and the assumption that a similar stress state in the ...

Stochastic Finite Element Modelling of Fibre-Metal Laminates
45th AIAA/ASME/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics & Materials Conference, 2004Fibre-metal laminates are expected to have larger variations in material properties compared to traditional aerospace materials such as aluminium. Eects of such variations are not taken into account in current numerical models. This paper discusses the development of a stochastic nite element model with the existing deterministic solidlike shell (SLS ...

Fatigue initiation in fibre metal laminates
International Journal of Fatigue, 2006Abstract It is assumed that fatigue crack initiation in Fibre Metal Laminates is determined by the stress cycles in the metal layers only. It is further assumed that if the stress cycles in the metal layers are known, the fatigue initiation life can be established using S – N data available for the given metal alloy.

Crack paths in fibre metal laminates: Role of fibre bridging
Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 2013Abstract This paper discusses experimental results of fatigue tests performed under off-axis loading with respect to the principal direction of fibres in fibre metal laminates. The cracks in the metal layers of the FMLs do not propagate perpendicular to loading but at an angle to this orthogonal direction.

Impact loading on fibre metal laminates
International Journal of Impact Engineering, 1996Abstract Static identation and low and high velocity impact tests are conducted on specimens with a circular clamped test area. Monolithic A1 2024-T3 and 7075-T6, various grades of Fibre Metal Laminates (FML), and composites are tested. The energy to create the first crack for FML with aramid and carbon fibres is comparable to fibre reinforced ...

Impact properties of Fibre Metal Laminates
Composites Engineering, 1993Conventional composites are known for their sensitivity to impact damage. This has slowed their widespread application to thin, damage tolerance-critical primary structures such as fuselage pressure cabin skins. Therefore, impact tests were performed to determine the impact characteristics of Fibre Metal Laminates (GLARE and ARALL). Comparative low and

On the Bearing Strength of Fibre Metal Laminates
Journal of Composite Materials, 1992Published work on mechanically fastened joints in composites has demon strated that the influence of lateral restraint on bearing strength is of paramount impor tance. Delamination in conjunction with buckling is frequently observed if there is a lack of lateral restraint (pin-type loading).
