Abstract
This study aims to predict the transverse crack accumulation behavior of CFRP cross-ply laminates for evaluation of their remaining life. The tension-tension fatigue tests of CFRP cross-ply laminates were used to investigate the relationship between transverse crack accumulation behavior and the number of cycles of the fatigue tests. We also studied the damage accumulation behavior, including delamination of cross-ply laminates under fatigue loading, and it was indicated that the damage accumulation behavior depends on the maximum load of the fatigue tests. We proposed a method that can predict transverse crack accumulation behavior using a power-law between transverse crack density growth rate and the energy release rate associated with single transverse crack formation. As a result, the proposed method can estimate the applied number of cycles on CFRP cross-ply laminates.
期刊介绍:
"Advanced Composite Materials (ACM), a bi-monthly publication of the Japan Society for Composite Materials and the Korean Society for Composite Materials, provides an international forum for researchers, manufacturers and designers who are working in the field of composite materials and their structures. Issues contain articles on all aspects of current scientific and technological progress in this interdisciplinary field. The topics of interest are physical, chemical, mechanical and other properties of advanced composites as well as their constituent materials; experimental and theoretical studies relating microscopic to macroscopic behavior; testing and evaluation with emphasis on environmental effects and reliability; novel techniques of fabricating various types of composites and of forming structural components utilizing these materials; design and analysis for specific applications.
Advanced Composite Materials publishes refereed original research papers, review papers, technical papers and short notes as well as some translated papers originally published in the Journal of the Japan Society for Composite Materials. Issues also contain news items such as information on new materials and their processing."
