Damage Mechanisms

The basic fatigue damage mechanisms in composite laminates are reviewed. Based on these mechanisms a pattern in the fatigue-life diagrams is proposed. Several experimental data are shown to agree with this basic pattern. Fatigue ratio is defined in terms of strains, and fatigue limit is shown to exist for unidirectional, cross-plied and angle-plied laminates. The limitations to the fatigue performance of composite laminates are pointed out and suggestions for improving the fatigue resistance are made.

Abstract The results of comparative examinations of mechanical behaviour during fatigue loads and microstructure assessment before and after fatigue tests were presented. Composites of aluminium matrix and SiC reinforcement manufactured using the KoBo method were investigated. The combinations of two kinds of fatigue damage mechanisms were observed. The first one governed by cyclic plasticity and related to inelastic strain amplitude changes and the second one expressed in a form of ratcheting based on changes in mean inelastic strain. The higher SiC content the less influence of the fatigue damage mechanisms on material behaviour was observed. Attempts have been made to evaluate an appropriate fatigue damage parameter. However, it still needs further improvements.
