Abstract
The advancement of next-generation aerospace vehicles has presented new requirements and challenges for ensuring the structural integrity of aircraft components in extreme environments. Consequently, the utilization of high temperature resistant polyamide composite materials has become pivotal in the manufacturing of aerospace vehicle parts that operate under high temperatures (250 °C). As a critical connection technology for these materials, the mechanical behavior of bolted connection structures under high temperatures requires further investigation. In this paper, a combination of experimental and numerical simulation is used to investigate the load carrying capacity and failure mechanism of T700/BMP316 composite bolted joints at room temperature and 250 °C. The experimental results show that the ultimate load carrying capacity of the structure at 250 °C is only 13.1 % lower than that of the room temperature environment, indicating that the temperature softening effect of such composites is not significant. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and computed tomography (CT) results indicate that the structural damage modes were the crushing of the hole edge fibers and matrix due to the extrusion by the bolts, as well as the interlaminar delamination damage. Temperature effects were taken into account for the composite principal structure and finite element modeling was performed using a combination of Pinho criterion and Cohesive model. Numerical simulations allow accurate prediction of the load-displacement response and damage pattern throughout the damage evolution phase. The high temperature test results and the developed finite element model involved in this study can support the design of new-generation aerospace vehicles.
期刊介绍:
Thin-walled structures comprises an important and growing proportion of engineering construction with areas of application becoming increasingly diverse, ranging from aircraft, bridges, ships and oil rigs to storage vessels, industrial buildings and warehouses.
Many factors, including cost and weight economy, new materials and processes and the growth of powerful methods of analysis have contributed to this growth, and led to the need for a journal which concentrates specifically on structures in which problems arise due to the thinness of the walls. This field includes cold– formed sections, plate and shell structures, reinforced plastics structures and aluminium structures, and is of importance in many branches of engineering.
The primary criterion for consideration of papers in Thin–Walled Structures is that they must be concerned with thin–walled structures or the basic problems inherent in thin–walled structures. Provided this criterion is satisfied no restriction is placed on the type of construction, material or field of application. Papers on theory, experiment, design, etc., are published and it is expected that many papers will contain aspects of all three.
