Using backup plate is one of the most commonly used methods to decrease drilling-induced delamination of composite laminates. It has been shown that, the size of the delamination zone is related to the vertical element of cutting force named as thrust force. Also, direct control of thrust force is not a routine task, because, it depends on both drilling parameters and mechanical properties of the composite laminate. In this research, critical feed rate and thrust force are predicted analytically for delamination initiation in drilling of composite laminates with backup plate. Three common theories, linear elastic fracture mechanics, classical laminated plate and mechanics of oblique cutting, are used to model the problem. Based on the proposed analytical model, the effect of drill radius, chisel edge size, and backup plate size on the critical thrust force and feed rate are investigated. Experimental tests were carried out to prove analytical model.

During the curing process of thick glass/epoxy laminates, a substantial amount of temperature lag and overshoot at the center of the laminates is usually experienced due to the large thickness and low thermal conductivity of the glass/epoxy composites. Also, it requires a longer time for full and uniform consolidation. In this work, temperature, degree of cure and consolidation of a 20mm thick unidirectional glass/epoxy laminate were investigated using an experiment and a 3-dimentional numerical analysis considering the exothermic reaction. From the experimental and numerical results, it was found that the experimentally obtained temperature profile agreed well with the numerical one and the cure cycle recommended by the prepreg manufacturer should be modified to prevent a temperature overshoot and to obtain full consolidation.

The present study proposes a theoretical model for predicting the matrix crack density growth of each layer in composite laminates subjected to thermo-mechanical loads. Each layer with matrix cracks is treated as an equivalent continuum of degraded elastic stiffnesses which are functions of the matrix crack density in each slyer. The energy release rate as a function of the degraded elastic stiffnesses is then calculated for each layer as functions of thermo-mechanical loads externally applied to the laminate. The matrix crack densities of each layer in general laminates are predicted as functions of the thermo-mechanical loads applied to a number of laminates. Comparisons of the present study with experimental data in the open literatures are also provided.

The mechanical properties of composite materials may degrade severely in the presence of damage. Especially, the high-velocity impact such as bird strike, a hailstorm, and a small piece of tire or stone during high taxing, can cause sever damage to the structures and sub-system in spite of a very small mass. However, it is not easy to detect the damage in composite plates using a single technique or any conventional methods. In this paper, the PYDF(polyvinylidene fluoride) film sensors and strain gages were used for monitoring impact damage initiation and propagation in composite laminates. The WT(wavelet transform) and STFT(short time Fourier transform) are used to decompose the sensor signals. A ultrasonic C-scan and a digital microscope are also used to examine the extent of the damage in each case. This research demonstrate how various sensing techniques, PVDF sensor in particular, can be used to characterize high-velocity impact damage in advanced composites.

In order to evaluate impact characteristics for the laminates with or without delaminations, carbon fiber/epoxy laminated composite were fabricated. After trying several ways to develop delaminations within the laminates, an insertion of teflon-tape was found to be most effective. The locations for delamination was determined after several trial-and-error experiments. The low impact energy did not produce measurable difference for composites with or without delamination, which indicated the presence of impact energy threshold. The impact chacteristics for composites with the delamination were found to be different from those for composites with other type of defect including fiber failures.

In this paper, the effects of temperature change on the impact of CFRP laminates was experimentally studied. Composite laminates used for this experiment are CFRP orthotropic laminated plates, which have two-interfaces$[0_6^{\circ}/90_7^{\circ}]_s$ and four-interfaces$[0_3^{\circ}/90_6^{\circ}/0_3^{\circ}]_s$. The interrelations between the impact energy vs. delamination area, the impact energy vs. residual bending strength, and the interlayer delamination area vs. the decrease of the residual flexural strength of carbon fiber epoxy composite laminates subjected to FOD(Foreign Object Damage) under high temperatures were experimentally observed.

In order to determine what influences the interfacial charge in EPDM/XLPE laminates, We used PEA (pulsed electroacoustic) method. Interfacial properties such as space charge accumulation and breakdown strength in crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE)/ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) laminates were investigated. Interfacial charge develops when the EPDM is laminated with XLPE. It showed the positive polarity same as the simulation in case on intercase of EPDM/XLPE. In case of coupling agent added silicone oil, as increasing the content of coupling agent, the interfacial charge decreased. Details of the results are given and their origins discussed.

In drilling of composite laminates, it is important to minimize of reduce occurrences of delaminations. In particular, a peel -up delamination at entrance and push-up delamination at exit are common. Deleaminations may by avoided by regulating the drill thrust force can be controlled by adjusting the feedrate of the drill. Dynamics involved in drilling of composite laminates is time varying and nonlinear. In this paper, a fuzzy logic model and control strategy are proposed. Simulation results show that the fuzzy model can describe the nonlinear time-varying process well. The fuzzy controller realizes a fast rise time and a little overshoot of drilling force.

The goal is to assess the effect of fatigue loading on mechanical properties of Fiberite 934/T300 laminates of pressure vessel using the recent variational mechanics analysis. This analysis has been useful in providing fracture mechanics interpretation of matrix microcracking in cross-ply laminates. This paper describes using the new energy release rate analysis for a fracture mechanics based interpretation of microcrack formation during fatigue loading. The master plot by modified Paris-law gives a complete characterization of a material system's resistance to microcrack formation.
