8、d distortional work criterion. For unidirectional composites, the strength is governed by the axial, transverse, and shear strengths, and the angle of fiber orientation. The strength of a laminated composite consisting of layers of uni- directional composites depends on the strength, thickness, and

9、orientation of each constituent layer and the temperature at which the laminate is cured. In the process of lamination, thermal and mechanical interactions are induced which affect the residual stress and the subsequent stress distribution under external load. A method of strength analysis of lamina

10、ted composites is delineated using glass-epoxy composites as examples. The validity of the method is demonstrated by appropriate experiments. Commonly encountered material constants and coefficients for stress and strength analyses for glass-epoxy composites are listed in the Appendix. iv Provided b

23、eNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION Structural Behavior of Composite Materials The purpose of the present investigation is to establish a rational basis of the designs of composite materials for structural applications. Ultimately, materials d

24、esign can be integrated into structural design as an added dimension. Higher performance and lower cost in materials and structures applications can therefore be expected. Following the research method outlined previously, 1* the present program combines two traditional areas of research - materials

25、 and structures. These two areas are linked by a mechanical constitutive equa- tion, the simplest form of which is the generalized Hookes law. The mate- rials research is concerned with the influences of the constituent materials on the coefficients of the constitutive equation, which in this case,

26、are the elastic moduli. The structures research, on the other hand, is concerned with the gross behavior of an anisotropic medium. An integrated structural design takes into account, in addition to the traditional variations in thick- nesses and shapes, the controllable magnitude and direction of ma

27、terial properties through the selection of proper constituent materials and their geometric arrangement. “References are listed at the end of this report. 1 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-Following the framework just described, the e

28、lastic moduli of aniso- tropic laminated composites were reported previously. 2, 3 The appropriate constitutive equation was: This equation, of course, included the quasi-homogeneous orthotropic com- posite, which represented a unidirectional composite, as a special case. The material coefficients A

29、, B, and D were expressed in terms of material and geometric parameters associated with the constituent materials and the method of lamination. This information provided a rational basis for the design of elastic stiffnesses of an anisotropic laminated composite. Thus, the investigation reported in

30、References 2 and 3 involved both structures research, in the establishment of Equation (1) as an appropriate constitutive equation, and materials research, in the establishment of the parameters that govern the material coefficients of Equation (1). The present report covers the strength characteris

31、tic of anisotropic laminated composites, which again includes the quasi-homogeneous com- posite, as a special case. Unlike the case of the elastic moduli, the present report covers only the structures aspect of strengths; the materials aspect is to be investigated in the future. The appropriate cons

32、titutive equation for the strength characteristics is established in this report. Only when this information is available, can the area of research from the materials stand- point be delineated. Guidelines for the design of composites from the strength consideration can be derived. Scope of Present

33、Investigation The present investigation is concerned with the structures aspect of the strength characteristics of composite materials. The strength of a quasi-homogeneous anisotropic composite is first established. Then the strength of a laminated composite consisting of layers of quasi-homogeneous

34、 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-composites bonded together is investigated. The validity of the theoretical predictions is demonstrated by using glass-epoxy resin composites as test specimens. The main result of this investigation is

35、 that a more realistic method of strength analysis than the prevailing netting analysis is obtained. The structural behavior of composite materials is now better understood, and one can use these materials with higher precision and greater confidence. A stride is made toward the rational design of c

36、omposite materials. Although much more analyses and data generation still remain to be done, the present knowledge of stiffnesses and strengths of composite materials, as reported in References 2 and 3, and in this report, respectively, is approaching the level of knowledge presently available in th

37、e use of isotropic homogeneous materials.

38、y Several strength theories of anisotropic materials are frequently encountered in the study of composite materials. Hill postulated a theory in 1q484 and later repeated it in his plasticity book. 5 Using his notation, it is assumed that the yield condition is a quadratic function of the stress comp

This yield condition is a generaliz

Beyond this necessary condition, there seems to be no further rationale. Nevertheless, this yield condition has the advantages of bei

41、ng reasonable and readily usable in a mathematical theory of strength because it is a con- tinuous function in the stress space. For identification purposes, this con- dition will be called the distortional energy condition. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted withou

42、t license from IHS-,-,-Marin proposed a strength theory equivalent to Equation (2), except the principal stress components were used instead of the general stress components. The use of principal stresses is, in fact, more difficult to apply to anisotropic materials, since the axes of material symme

43、try, the principal stress, and the principal strain are, in general, not coincident. Thus, principal stresses per se do not have much physical significance. Another strength theory of anisotropic material is called the “inter- action formula, ” as described by a series of reports by the Forest Produ

Then Equations (2) and (3) can be reduced, respectively: z i. e., the strength characteristics as a function of the orientation of the symmetry axes, 8.

What is equally important is that the strength characteristics of a quasi-homogeneous aniso- tropic material under combined stresses are simultaneously verified. By a simple substitution of Equation (6) into (q), while maintaining p =

48、 q = 0, one recovers, as expected, the original yield condition shown in Equation (4). Equation (8) can be reduced to other simple cases in a straight- forward manner. For example, the case of hydrostatic pressure requires p = 1, q = 0, from which one can show that the maximum pressure is equal to the transverse strength, Y, and is independent of the orientation, 8.
