Abstract The article discusses a promising conductive composite material such as carbon-plastic. This material has significant strength, not inferior to metal, has a low specific weight and has interesting electrophysical characteristics. For a wider use of the material in various structural products, it is necessary to consider its unique characteristics. The work is devoted to the study of the conductive properties of carbon fiber under the influence of lightning currents and the development of criteria for its destruction. Based on two models of destruction of CFRP by lightning currents, a theoretical analysis of its destruction has been carried out. The first model considered the composite material as a continuous medium with anisotropic-conducting properties. The solution of the Laplace equation with the Neumann boundary conditions made it possible to find the distribution of current densities over the material and theoretically determine the radius and depth of damage. The second model, the layered structure model, took into account the structure of real CFRP. The dynamics of layer-by-layer destruction is considered on the basis of the equivalent circuit of carbon fiber reinforced plastic, which takes into account the longitudinal and transverse resistivity of the composite. The distributions of the radial current density along the radius and depth of the material are constructed and the analysis of the spreading of currents at various degrees of material anisotropy is carried out. Strong anisotropy, leading to the release of total energy in the first layer. Destruction of the upper layer changes the distribution of currents in the rest of the layers. The results of numerical modeling of layer-by-layer destruction of CFRP for five layers are presented. The process of destruction under the action of large current pulses is considered. The fracture criteria for various degrees of material anisotropy are obtained and refined. The resulting formulas contain values that are reproduced in the experiment. The calculation results are in good agreement with experiment. In conclusion, it is concluded that the criteria are applied to predict the effects of lightning and optimize lightning protection at the design stage of an aircraft.

On the basis of two models of lightning currents spreading on carbon plastic, the criteria of material destruction are determined. One of the models – the anisotropic conductive medium model from the Laplace equation with specified Neumann boundary conditions – makes it possible to obtain an exact solution in the form of Bessel functions for longitudinal and transverse current densities and to consider the material destruction zones by the radius and the depth. The model adequately describes the experiment with different arrangement of electrodes simulating the passage of lightning currents on constructions made of conductive composite and metal. The second – the model of composite layered structure – is constructed using the diagram of carbon plastic substitution and makes it possible to find the distribution of currents by a numerical method. The results of the calculations for both models are well consistent. The dynamics analysis of carbon plastic destruction revealed the criteria of destruction with parameters of real carbon plastic and experiment data that do not contradict the parameters of carbon plastic destruction obtained in foreign experimental studies. These criteria allow to determine the dependence between the value of the current integral and the number of layers of the composite material. Options with a small number of layers and with a large one when the reach-through breakdown criterion is possible were taken into account. Comparison of calculated and experimental destruction data showed good curve matching. The obtained criteria make it possible to predict the effects of lightning exposure under different material parameters and to take measures to improve the lightning resistance of carbon plastic products at the stage of aircraft design.

The purpose of this research is the development of new design method for integrating the optimum strength evaluation and the product design which can make the best use of material's characteristics obtained by the experiment and the analysis. Further we do design using high-strength composite material with this developed concept which is different from conventional design. First, to establish this design method of high-strength materials, we examined these materials characteristics and manufacturing methods and the commercialized products. As this research target material, we focus the fiber reinforced materials such as composite with carbon fiber, glass fiber and aramid fiber. Above all, we marked the carbon fiber which has the high specific tensile strength, wear resistance, heat conductivity and conductance. Here, we introduce the fundamental design concept which makes the best use of the design with enough strength.

In this paper, low temperature oxygen plasma treatment method was adopted to process the carbon fiber surface. Flexural Strength test method was utilized to represent f composite material flexural strength. This paper observed flexural failure morphology of composite material by aid of SEM, then it compared the mechanical property, hygroscopicitiy and flexural strength retention rate of composite material before and after the plasma treatment. Results showed that the optimum treatment conditions of carbon fiber were 300W treatment power and 15-minute treatment time. Under the condition, the highest flexural strength value be increased by 19.55%.Saturated bibulous is low and bibulous rate is slow, flexural strength retention rate is 94.9%. And at the same time PES-C resin matrix can be strengthened, which will further improve the mechanical properties of composite materials.

Conductive Hydrogels

Conductive hydrogels have shown excellent application prospects in the fields of bioelectronics, tissue engineering, wearable devices, etc. However, its poor compatibility at the organic-inorganic interface affects its mechanical strength and limits its wide application. We prepared carbon fiber-polyacrylamide organic-inorganic composite material by electrochemical polymerization using N,N-methylenebisacrylamide as the crosslinking agent, acrylamide as the monomer, and carbon fiber as the conductive filler. It forms a conductive hydrogel after absorbing water. The effects of monomer concentration, reaction time, and current on the composite material were investigated in this article. The experimental results show that a large number of irregular bumps are produced on the surface of carbon fiber, and various characterization tests show that it is polyacrylamide (PAM) that successfully attached to carbon fiber. Under the same electrochemical polymerization time, the current density and monomer concentration have little effect on the molecular weight which mainly concentrated around 6.2 × 105. The graft modification of PAM reduces the defects on the surface of the carbon fiber, and the composite effect is good.

Reinforced Plastic

Carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) is a composite material in which carbon fibers are impregnated with resin to achieve both high strength and high rigidity. CFRP is an excellent material, but it is expensive in terms of materials, manufacturing costs, and capital investment, and it takes a lot of time to complete a product. In order to solve these problems, the demand for de-autoclaving has been increasing in recent years. If molding can be performed without autoclaving, it will be possible to reduce costs and improve productivity in terms of materials and capital investment costs.

Fiber Composite Material

This paper proposes a contactless method for the identification of the electrical conductivity tensor of a carbon fiber composite materials plate using a rotating magnetic field and multi-coil eddy current sensor. This sensor consists of identical rectangular multi-coil, excited by two-phase sinusoidal current source in order to generate a rotating magnetic field and to avoid the mechanical rotation of the sensor. The fibers orientations, the longitudinal and transverse conductivities in each ply of carbon fiber composite material plate were directly determined with analysis of the impedance variation of each coil as function of its angular position. The inversion process is based on the use of artificial neural networks. The direct calculation associated with artificial neural networks makes use of 3D time-harmonic finite element method based on the A, V–A formulation.
