Abstract This paper will demonstrate on two advanced materials — a fibre-reinforced composite laminate (FRC) and a transformation toughened ceramic (TTC) — the importance of multicriterion optimization in the production of useful advanced materials with enhanced mechanical properties. In a previous paper (Thomsen et al., 1994a), the authors have demonstrated the application of single-criterion optimization to these materials which are based on a brittle matrix and thus prone to cracking at very low applied stresses. The optimization process aims at altering their microstructure so that all their desirable mechanical properties are enhanced. Currently, the advanced materials technologists must take a heuristic approach to meeting the often competing requirements. The present paper will show how multicriterion optimization can come to the aid of the technologists and reduce their reliance on empirical approaches.

AbstractThe paper discusses the problem of possibility of the detecting surface defects in carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP) materials on the basis of the milling time series. First, the special defects in the hole-shaped with various depth were made. Next, the cutting forces are measured during the milling machining. Finally, the recurrence plot and quantification analysis was applied. The obtained results show that the depth defect influences the selected recurrence quantifications, which can be used as the simple defect indicators. The conducted research allow to determine the percentage share of the detectable defects. The novelty of the work and an unresolved problem is the selection of recurrence quantifications with the simultaneous use of them to detect the size of defects in carbon fibre reinforced plastics.

For the last three decades, composites have become very preferable materials to be used in the automotive industry, structural parts of aircraft and military systems and spacecraft, due to their high strength and modulus. Composite materials are sometimes exposed to invisible or visible damage due to impact loading during their service life. In this study, the effect of impactor geometry with four different contact surfaces on woven carbon fibre-reinforced composite plates having three different thicknesses are investigated. In the first stage, composite plates were manufactured with the ply orientations of [45/-45/0/90/45/-45]2s, [45/-45/0/90/45/-45]3s, [45/-45/0/90/45/-45]4s based on conventional usage. In the second stage, carbon fibre-reinforced composite test panels were exposed to low velocity impact tests to obtain force-time, energy-time and force-displacement curves. Finally, semi and full penetration of composite panels and damage magnitude were determined. It was found that the impactor geometries with lower contact surfaces such as conical and ogive types were much more penetrative on composite plates than the other geometries, but they caused larger damage area in the vicinity of the impact point.
