Abstract
The joining of metals and carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastics composite (CFRTP) is recently considered to be an effective and promising way to meet the lightweight requirements of manufacturing in the aviation field. Herein, novel bionic textures (fishbone-like and nacre-like), constructed by laser pretreatment, are proposed to enhance the hybrid joints of 6061 Al alloy and CFRTP by the laser wobble joining method. The effects of the proposed bionic textures on the hybrid joints of 6061/CFRTP were uncovered through a systematic experimental method and finite element analysis (FEA). The results indicated that the strength and toughness of the hybrid joints with novel bionic textures were both distinctly improved compared with that of conventional textures (groove-like and circular-like). This strengthening effect can be essentially attributed to the buffering of interfacial stress concentration and the deflection behavior of cracks. The observed interfacial gaps and fractured resin appearance both distributed near the sides of the textures demonstrate that the cracks propagate inside the resin on one side of the texture and propagate along the interface on the other side. A new reinforcement strategy for hybrid metal/CFRTP joints has been proposed: regulating interfacial bionic textures to inhibit the initiation and propagation of interfacial cracks.
期刊介绍:
Composites Part B: Engineering is a journal that publishes impactful research of high quality on composite materials. This research is supported by fundamental mechanics and materials science and engineering approaches. The targeted research can cover a wide range of length scales, ranging from nano to micro and meso, and even to the full product and structure level. The journal specifically focuses on engineering applications that involve high performance composites. These applications can range from low volume and high cost to high volume and low cost composite development.
The main goal of the journal is to provide a platform for the prompt publication of original and high quality research. The emphasis is on design, development, modeling, validation, and manufacturing of engineering details and concepts. The journal welcomes both basic research papers and proposals for review articles. Authors are encouraged to address challenges across various application areas. These areas include, but are not limited to, aerospace, automotive, and other surface transportation. The journal also covers energy-related applications, with a focus on renewable energy. Other application areas include infrastructure, off-shore and maritime projects, health care technology, and recreational products.
