A technique to detect delamination in composite materials by noncontact, rapid and high sensitive microwave reflectometry with a focusing mirror sensor was proposed. The focusing mirror sensor, which has high sensitivity and resolution, is expected to detect delamination sensitively. In this paper, the ability of microwave inspection to detect delamination in glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) and carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) was verified. As the results, the existences of 100 μm thick delamination in 3 mm thick GFRP laminate and 2 mm thick CFRP laminate were detected.

This paper presents a study regarding friction and wear comportment of sintered composite materials obtained by mixture of copper with short carbon fibers. Sintered composites are gaining importance because the reinforcement serves to reduce the coefficient of thermal expansion and increase the strength and modulus. In case of composites form by carbon fiber and copper, the thermal conductivity can also be enhanced. The combination of low thermal expansion and high thermal conductivity makes them very attractive for electronic packaging. Besides good thermal properties, their low density makes them particularly desirable for aerospace electronics and orbiting space structures. Compared to the metal itself, a carbon fiber-copper composite is characterized by a higher strength-to-density ratio, a higher modulus-to-density ratio, better fatigue resistance, better high-temperature mechanical properties and better wear resistance. Varying the percentage of short carbon fibers from 7,8% to 2,4%, and the percentage of copper from 92,2% to 97,6%, five dissimilar composite materials have been made and tested from the wear point of view. Friction tests are carried out, at room temperature, in dry conditions, on a pin-on-disc machine. The friction coefficient was measured using abrasive discs made from steel 4340 having the average hardness of 40 HRC, and sliding velocity of 0,6 m/sec. The primary goal of this study work it was to distinguish a mixture of materials with enhanced friction and wearing behaviour. The load applied on the specimen during the tests, is playing a very important role regarding friction coefficient and also the wearing speed.

The frame power structures are widely applied when designing aircraft, in which composite rod elements are used to reduce the mass and size characteristics. To solve the problem of manufacturing rod elements from polymer composite materials, we developed a technology for the manufacture of carbon fiber pipes using an existing machine for winding carbon fiber, which provides the necessary strength and rigidity mainly in the longitudinal direction.When calculating the rod elements, all the loads that will affect the structure as well as the coefficient of thermal expansion should be taken into account. To achieve the required physical, mechanical, and thermophysical characteristics, the optimal scheme of reinforcement is the scheme with a quasi-longitudinal direction of the fibers. We developed the method of manufacturing based on the technology allowing us to obtain a reinforcement scheme with fiber orientation in the quasi-longitudinal direction with a reinforcement angle of about 1° by a combined method of layer-by-layer winding of carbon fiber. As a result of technological testing, we obtained samples of carbon fiber rod elements, which were used to confirm the calculated characteristics. To confirm the physico-mechanical and thermophysical characteristics, we determined the assessment of limit of strength and modulus of elasticity in bending, the limit of strength and modulus of elasticity in torsion, the limit of strength and modulus of elasticity in compression, and the coefficient of thermal expansion. The obtained characteristics of the dependences of the elasticity modulus of the pipe prototype material at the fibers’ orientation angle correlate with theoretical calculations. The presented method has the patent UA 128613 U.

The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of multiphase polymeric composite materials represents an important role in the process of engineered materials design, especially while approaching thermal management issues. Tailoring and designing material combinations in order to develop a composite structure to prove stability over a wide range of temperatures, from cryogenic to high values, to withstand extreme environmental conditions is the dream and the purpose of any engineering team involved in such study/research area. The paper aims to approach and to present the variations of the CTE with extreme environmental conditions (e.g. cryogenic, desert and hygroscopic conditioning) for particular combinations of particle-fibers multiphase polymeric composite materials. Influencing factors will be underlined to accompany the experimental research.

A multiphase finite element model using the commercial finite element package ABAQUS/EXPLICIT is developed for simulating the orthogonal machining of unidirectional fiber reinforced composite materials. The composite materials considered for this study are a glass fiber reinforced epoxy and a tube formed carbon fiber reinforced epoxy. The effects of varying the fiber orientation angle and tool rake angle on the cutting force and damage during machining are considered for the glass fiber reinforced epoxy. In the case of carbon fiber reinforced epoxy, only the effect of fiber orientation on the measured cutting force and damage during machining is considered. Two major damage phenomena are predicted: debonding at the fiber-matrix interface and fiber pullout. In the multiphase approach, the fiber and matrix are modeled as continuum elements with isotropic properties separated by an interfacial layer, while the tool is modeled as a rigid body. The cohesive zone modeling approach is used for the interfacial layer to simulate the extent of debonding below the work surface. Bulk deformation and shear failure are considered in the matrix for both the models and the glass fiber. A brittle failure criterion is used for the carbon fiber specimen and is coded in FORTRAN as a user defined material (VUMAT). The brittle failure of the carbon fibers is modeled using the Marigo model for brittle failure. For validation purposes, simulation results of the multiphase approach are compared with experimental measurements of the cutting force and damage. The model is successful in predicting cutting forces and damage at the front and rear faces with respect to the fiber orientation. A successful prediction of fiber pullout is also demonstrated in this paper.
