This paper proposes a material model of AS4/PEEK, a typical thermoplastic composite material, for the general purpose finite element code—ANSYS, which can be used to predict the mechanical behavior of AS4/PEEK composite structures. The computational result using this model has a good agreement with the test result. This investigation can lay the foundation for the numerical simulation of thermoplastic composite structures.

Abstract In this work, a macroscopic material model for simulation two distinct dissipative phenomena taking place in FCC metals and alloys at low temperatures: plasticity and phase transformation, is presented. Plastic yielding is the main phenomenon occurring when the yield stress is reached, resulting in nonlinear response of the material during loading. The phase transformation process leads to creation of two-phase continuum, where the parent phase coexists with the inclusions of secondary phase. An identification of the model parameters, based on uniaxial tension test at very low temperature, is also proposed.

Solder alloys are commonly tested with shear tests to study their mechanical properties or low-cycle fatigue performance. In this work, the suitability of various shear tests for quantitative solder-joint testing is investigated by means of the finite element method. The stress state and stress distribution in the following well known geometries are studied: the double-lap test, the ring and plug test, the losipescu test, and two single-lap tests. A new test geometry, the grooved-lap test, is introduced and compared to the conventional tests. The results of simulations with an elastic material model in plane-strain indicate that considerable differences in the purity of the state of shear (rε = −ε1/ε3) as well as in the stress distribution in the joint exist among the shear tests. However, simulations with a nonlinear material model show that stress inhomogenities are smoothed by the plastic and creep deformation occurring in the joint. Optical measurements of the deformation of real single-lap and grooved-lap joints show that the single-lap joint rotates slightly during creep, whereas in the grooved-lap joint no rotation can be detected. This confirms the simulation results that in the single-lap test the initially nonuniform stress distribution changes during creep, and in the grooved-lap test the uniform stress distribution remains constant through the test.

This paper presents a comprehensive mechanical study of UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) composite material under dynamic loadings. The aim of the study is to provide reliable experimental data for building and validate the composite material model under impact. Four types of characterization tests have been conducted: dynamic in-plane tension, out-of-plane compression, shear tests and plate impact tests. Then, several impacts of spherical projectiles have been performed. Regarding the numerical simulation, an intermediate scale multi-layered model (between meso and macro scale levels) is proposed. The material response is modelled with a 3d elastic orthotropic law coupled with fibre damage model. The modelling choice is governed by a balance between reliability and computing cost. Material dynamic response is unconventional [1, 2]: it shows large deformation before failure, very low shear modulus and peeling strength. Numerical simulation has been used both in the design and the analysis of tests. Many mechanical properties have been measured: elastic moduli, failure strength and EOS of the material. The numerical model is able to reproduce the main behaviours observed in the experiment. The study has highlighted the influence of temperature and fibre slipping in the impact response of the material.

Two-phase flow fields inside feeder pipes of a CANDU reactor have been simulated numerically using a CFD (computational fluid dynamics) code to calculate the shear stress distribution which is the most important factor to be considered in predicting the local areas of feeder pipes highly susceptible to FAC (flow-accelerated corrosion)-induced wall thinning. The CFD approach with schemes used in this study to simulate the turbulent flow situations inside the CANDU feeder pipes had been verified by showing a good agreement between the investigation results for the failed feedwater pipe at Surry Unit 2 plant in U.S. and the CFD calculation. Sensitivity studies of the three geometrical parameters such as angle of the 1st and 2nd bends, length of the 1st span between the grayloc hub and the 1st bend, and length of the 2nd span between the 1st and the 2nd bends had already been performed. In this study, the effects of void fraction of the primary coolant coming out from the exit of pressure tubes containing nuclear fuels on the fluid shear stress distribution at the inner surface of feeder pipe wall have been investigated to find out the local areas of feeder pipes conveying two-phase coolant, where are highly susceptible to FAC (flow-accelerated corrosion)-induced wall thinning. As the results of CFD analysis, it is seen that the local regions of feeder pipes of the operating CANDU reactors in Korea, on which the wall thickness measurements have been performed so far, are not coincided with the worst regions predicted by the present CFD analysis where is the connection region of straight & bend pipe near the inlet part of the bend intrados. Finally, based on the results of the present CFD analysis a guide to the selection of the weakest local positions where the measurement of wall thickness should be performed with higher priority has been provided.

The defect detection in composite material is important for its quality control where the hidden defect such as crack, corrosion, notch, holes, void and porosity can develop. In this paper, the ultrasonic bulk wave measurements of longitudinal and shear waves are used to identify defect in the multilayered composite material. This study employs pulse echo technique and utilized angle beam transducer. The composite material model investigated in this contribution are made of 24 mm and 12 mm thick Aluminium plates with a width of 100 mm and a length of 203 mm which are separated with an approximately 1 mm thick oil layer. A simulated defect is created in the composite test material by drilling a hole with 2.5 mm diameter and 3 mm depth on the bottom surface of the third layer material. Finding indicates that the defect is located at 53.39 mm from transducer and the percentage difference of the defect location compared to the calculation method is 7%. It indicates that the proposed method can be use to detect defect in multilayered composite material within 10% accuracy compared to the calculation method.
