Defects in composite laminates are difficult to detect because of the conductive and paramagnetic properties of composite materials. Timely detection of defects in composite laminates can improve reliability. This research illustrates the preliminary analysis and detection of delaminations in carbon fiber laminate beams using a single layer of magnetostrictive particles and noncontacting concentric magnetic excitation and sensing coils. The baseline analytical models also begin to address the intrusive nature of the magnetostrictive particles as well as relate the applied excitation field with the stress and magnetic flux densities induced in the magnetostrictive layer. Numerical methods are used to begin to characterize the presence of magnetostrictive particles in the laminate and the behavior of the magnetostrictive particles in relationship to the magnetic field used during sensing. Unidirectional laminates with embedded delaminations are used for simulations and experimentations. A novel, yet simplified fabrication method is discussed to ensure consistent scanning and sensing capabilities. The nondestructive evaluation scanning experiments were conducted with various shapes and sizes of damages introduced into carbon fiber–reinforced polymeric composite structures. The results demonstrate high potential for magnetostrictive particles as a low-cost, noncontacting, and reliable sensor for nondestructive evaluation of composite materials.

This study is to explore the changes in the performance of sports equipment under the action of carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites. This paper studies the effects of carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites in pole vault, bicycle, and tennis. The research results show that the performance of sports equipment based on carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composite materials has been greatly improved, with outstanding effects in terms of thermal properties, interface properties, mechanical properties, and fatigue resistance. Carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composite material damage expansion is divided into five stages: matrix cracking, interfacial degumming, delamination, fiber fracture, fracture. Therefore, carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composite materials are comprehensive for the improvement of sports equipment, which has greatly promoted the further development of sports. Carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composite materials can be promoted in other fields, thereby obtaining greater progress with help of high technology. The study of carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites in this paper has a positive effect on subsequent research.
