Постановка задачи. Изучено изменение упруго-прочностных показателей и кинетики накопления повреждений в эпоксидных полимерах под действием растягивающих нагрузок в контрольном состоянии и после натурного климатического воздействия в течение одного календарного года. Расчет кинетики накопления повреждений осуществлялся на основе авторской методики, основанной на использовании методов фрактального анализа кривых деформирования образцов полимерных материалов при растяжении. Результаты. Предложен удельный показатель θ, позволяющий количественно оценивать суммарное число повреждений на единицу прочности, накопление которого приводит к разрушению полимеров. Получены аппроксимирующие зависимости, описывающие взаимосвязь между удельным показателем θ и пределом прочности эпоксидных полимеров при растяжении. Выводы. Установлено, что наибольшей стабильностью свойств под действием натурного климатического воздействия обладает полимер на основе эпоксидной смолы «Этал-247». Statement of the problem. In the current study we look at the change in the elastic-strength performance and kinetics of damage accumulation in epoxy polymers under tensile loads in the control state and after full-scale climatic exposure during one calendar year were studied. Damage accumulation kinetics was calculated based on the author's method using methods of fractal analysis of deformation curves for polymer materials samples under tension. Results. We proposed specific index θ to quantify the total number of damages per unit of strength where its accumulation leads to the destruction of polymers. The dependences have been obtained that describe the relationship between specific index θ and tensile strength of epoxy polymers. Consclusion. The study has shown that the Etal-247 epoxy resin-based polymer cured with Etal-1440 amine hardener has the most stable properties under the full-scale climatic exposure.

Abstract A fatigue testing system is established with which the real-time recording of stress, strain, temperature, and hysteresis loss of rubbers or cord-rubber composite specimens subjected to periodic loading or extension can be successfully carried out. Several problems are connected with the experimental study of the fatigue of rubber composites. In constant extension cycling, the specimen becomes relaxed because of the viscoelasticity of rubber composites, and the imposed tension-tension deformation becomes complex. In this method, the specimen is unlikely to fail unless the imposed extensions are very large. Constant load cycling can avoid the shortcomings of constant extension cycling. The specially designed clamps ensure that the specimen does not slip when the load retains a constant value. The Deformation and fatigue damage accumulation processes of rubber composites under periodic loading are also examined. Obviously, the effect of cycle frequency on the fatigue life of rubber composites can not be ignored because of the viscoelasticity of constituent materials. The increase of specimen surface temperature is relatively small in the case of 1 Hz, but the temperature can easily reach 100°C at the 8 Hz frequency. A method for evaluating the fatigue behavior of tires is proposed.

A new destructive method for quantitative determination of the damage accumulation in the vicinity of a stress concentrator has been proposed and verified. Increase of damage degree in local area with a high level of the strain gradient was achieved through preliminary low-cycle pull-push loading of plane specimens with central open holes. The above procedure is performed for three programs at the same stress range (333.3 MPa) and different stress ratio values 0.33, – 0.66 and – 1.0, and vice versa for two programs at the same stress ratio – 0.33 and different stress range 333.3 and 233.3 MPa. This process offers a set of the objects to be considered with different degree of accumulated fatigue damages. The key point of the developed approach consists in the fact that plane specimens with open holes are tested under real operation conditions without a preliminary notching of the specimen initiating the fatigue crack growth. The measured parameters necessary for a quantitative description of the damage accumulation process were obtained by removing the local volume of the material in the form of a sequence of narrow notches at a constant level of external tensile stress. External load can be considered an amplifier enhancing a useful signal responsible for revealing the material damage. The notch is intended for assessing the level of fatigue damage, just as probe holes are used to release residual stress energy in the hole drilling method. Measurements of the deformation response caused by local removing of the material are carried out by electronic speckle-pattern interferometry at different stages of low-cycle fatigue. The transition from measured in-plane displacements to the values of the stress intensity factor (SIF) and the T-stress was carried out on the basis of the relations of linear fracture mechanics. It was shown that the normalized dependences of the stress intensity factor on the durability percentage for the first notch (constructed for four programs of cyclic loading with different parameters), reflect the effect of the stress ratio and stress range of the loading cycle on the rate of damage accumulation. The data were used to obtain the explicit form of the damage accumulation function that quantitatively describes damage accumulation process. The functions were constructed for different stress ratios and stress ranges.
