Evaluation of mixed mode-I/II criteria for fatigue crack propagation using experiments and modeling

In this study, in-plane mixed mode-I/II fatigue crack growth simulations and experiments are performed for the Al 7075-T651 aluminum alloy which is widely used in the aerospace industry. Tests are carried out under different mode mixity ratios to evaluate the applicability of a fracture criterion developed in a previous study to mixed mode-I/II fatigue crack growth tests. Results obtained from the analyses and experiments are compared with existing and developed criteria in terms of crack growth lives. Compact Tension Shear (CTS) specimens, which enable mixed mode loading with loading devices under different loading angles, are used in the simulations and experiments. In an effort to model and simulate the actual conditions in the experiments, crack surfaces of fractured specimens are scanned, crack paths are modeled exactly, and contacts are defined between the contact surfaces of a specimen and the loading device for each crack propagation step in the analyses. Having computed the mixed mode stress intensity factors from the numerical analyses, propagation life cycles are predicted by existing and the developed mixed mode-I/II criteria and then compared with experimental results.

Micro powder injection molding of boron carbide components with SiC-Al2O3-Y2O3 sintering additives

Sintering additives and micro-powder injection molding offer an effective method to densify boron carbide（B₄C） and make B₄C components with complex shapes. By adjusting the proportion of three kinds of powders（SiC, Al₂O₃ and Y₂O₃）, four kinds of sintering additives were prepared. The feedstock uniformity, debinding behavior, phase composition and microstructure of micro injection molded B₄C components with different sin...     

起圈织物泡沫夹芯复合材料Ⅰ/Ⅱ型断裂韧性研究

夹芯复合材料在受到弯曲、剪切和冲击等载荷作用下易发生脱层损伤。脱层损伤程度与Ⅰ、Ⅱ型断裂韧性密切相关。起圈织物由于在其厚度方向引入环状纤维束，增强了与芯层的结合能力，使其在抗分层方面性能优良。本文主要研究起圈织物泡沫夹芯复合材料的Ⅰ/Ⅱ型界面断裂韧性。根据试验标准分别制作了平纹织物泡沫夹芯复合材料和起圈织物泡沫夹芯复合材料。采用双悬臂梁试验（Double cantilever beam, DCB）和末端缺口挠曲试验（End notch flexure, ENF）对上述试验件的增韧机理进行了研究。研究表明，环状纤维束的引入大大提高了界面性能。起圈结构相较于平纹结构的Ⅰ型断裂韧性GⅠC提高了434%，Ⅱ型断裂韧性GⅡC提高了400%。通过建立有限元模型，采用内聚力模型来描述裂纹的扩展，数值结果与试验结果吻合较好。     

Effect of gap and overlap on mode Ⅱ interlaminar fracture toughness of automated fiber placement prepreg laminates

Automated Fiber Placement(AFP) technology facilitates the manufacturing process of composite structures with complex geometry owing to its high efficiency and accuracy.However,the unavoidable imperfections induced by the automated layup method bring challenges to the stability of the final mechanical properties of composites.The influence of AFP-induced gaps and overlaps on the mode Ⅱ interlaminar fracture process of oven-cured laminates is experimentally investigated and explicitly revealed.End...
