Prediction of stiffness and stresses in z-fibre reinforced composite laminates [PDF]

, 2002
The mechanical properties of z-pinned composite laminates were examined numerically. Finite element calculations have been performed to understand how the through-thickness reinforcement modifies the engineering elastic constants and local stress ...

Design exploration methodology for ultra thick laminated composites [PDF]

, 2012
Existing test and analytical methods (theoretical and numerical) are normally restricted to thin laminate components, which cannot accurately represent the 3D stress state behaviour of the so called Ultra Thick Laminates (UTL) structures.

Interlaminar shear behavior of thick carbon/epoxy composite materials

, 1999
The interlaminar shear behavior of thick carbon/epoxy composite laminates was investigated using the Iosipescu shear test. In order to manufacture thick test specimens, both the conventional autoclave cure cycle recommended by prepreg manufacturer and ...

Behavior of a Novel Cyclic Olefin‐Based Hot‐Melt Adhesive in CFRP Adhesive Joints Compared to Conventional Epoxy‐Based Structural Adhesives

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Rate‐dependent performance of composite adhesive joints using thermoset and thermoplastic adhesives, in terms of toughness and fatigue behaviour. ABSTRACT A recently developed hot‐melt adhesive (HMA) based on cyclic olefin chemistry, supplied as a transparent, non‐tacky thermoplastic film with a distinctive polymer microstructure, was evaluated in this

Quantitative relations between curing processes and local properties within thick composites based on simulation and machine learning

Materials & Design, 2023
Overheating is almost inevitable during the curing of thick polymer matrix composite parts, which always induces degradation of the mechanical properties.
