Summary: This study evaluates the deformation of plain woven composite structures induced by the curing process. The effective material property is calculated by considering fabric parameters closely related to the material properties. The theoretical models for predicting the cure behavior and effective material property are incorporated into finite element-based three-dimensional cure simulation. The results revealed the relationship between deformation and composite yarn thickness, as well as the gap between adjacent yarns. The process-induced deformation considering fabric parameters can contribute to improving the manufacturing quality of woven composite structures.

Summary: In the study of forming-induced wrinkling behavior in bi-axial fabrics, it was found that using a non-linear bending model produces more accurate wrinkle patterns compared to experimental data. This is because the bending stiffness parameter is varied as a function of the applied forming load to account for fiber buckling. Areas of high in-plane shear are more likely to induce out-of-plane wrinkles.

Summary: This study investigates the mechanical properties and ballistic performance of fabric pre-pregs after resin coating. Different resin ratios were used to coat aramid fabric and obtain various fabric pre-pregs. Experimental tests and Finite Element (FE) simulations were conducted to understand the role of resin coating. The results show that higher bonding force in the yarns led to global deformation under load, while local failure and limited Backface Signature (BFS) were observed during ballistic impact. An increase in resin ratio initially increased the tensile stress and energy absorption of the fabric pre-pregs, but later decreased. The panel AF/R14 showed the highest improvement in tensile stress (16.28%) and specific energy absorption (21.5%) compared to the neat fabric panel. FE simulation results revealed higher strain energy and frictional energy dissipation in the AF/R14 panel before failure. When the fabric pre-preg had appropriate bonding force, the secondary yarns contributed significantly to energy absorption during impact. Resin coating on fabric can enhance ballistic performance.

Summary: This study investigates the forming behavior of preforms made from Non-Crimp Fabric (NCF) for manufacturing complex double-curved geometries using Double Diaphragm Forming (DDF). Finite element (FE) simulations are used to study the effect of ply layup sequence on the formation of fabric wrinkles. The simulation results are in good agreement with experimental results, showing the location and number of fabric wrinkles for single or multi-ply layups. The simulations reveal that fabric over-shearing induced by convex double-curved features and dissimilar inter-ply shear deformations lead to fabric wrinkles.

Summary: In this study, the elastic properties of GNP-reinforced aluminium nanocomposite (AGNC) were analyzed using a 3D multiscale finite element method. The results showed that the addition of GNP significantly enhanced the Young's modulus and yield strength of AGNC, especially when the weight fraction of GNP was 1%. The size of GNP also influenced the mechanical properties, with 15nm and 30nm diameter GNP showing the best combination of strength and ductility. Additionally, the orientation of GNP had an impact on the enhancement, with a layered orientation showing better results compared to different angles of GNP.

Summary: PVC coated fabric, a lightweight and flexible structural material mainly used as a roof material, tends to suffer from mechanical failures such as tensile failure, peel, and tear under extreme conditions like heavy rain and wind. Despite several studies aiming to enhance its mechanical properties, there has been no significant improvement. In this study, the mechanical properties of PVC coated fabrics were improved by applying low viscosity PVC resin and using a 4 x 4 matt weave structure polyester fabric. The results showed that the tensile strength, tear load, and peel strength of the PVC coated fabric made with low viscosity PVC resin (D10) improved by approximately 3%, 11%, and 29% respectively compared to the one made with high viscosity PVC resin (D0). Additionally, the PVC coated fabric with a 4 x 4 matt weave structure demonstrated superior mechanical properties compared to those with a 1 x 1 plain weave structure or 2 x 2, 3 x 3 matt weave structure, attributable to its low crimp rate and low intersection point between the warp and weft yarns.

Summary: C-sandwich radome composites with double-layer woven lattice truss composites were designed and manufactured. Edgewise compressive testing revealed that the failure mechanism depends on the panel height, with global buckling, core piles fracture, and skin fracture being the typical failure modes. The global buckling is induced by the shear failure of the truss core, which is restricted with shorter columns. This study provides guidance for the design and preparation of radome sandwich composites.

The influence of a simplification in the phase-field evolution equation on heterogeneous materials is assessed and a complete formulation is proposed. The assessment shows that the simplified formulation leads to artificial diffusion of damage between different components, while the complete formulation suppresses this diffusion.

Summary: This paper focuses on the numerical implementation of phase-field models of fracture using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) based numerical method. The choice of regularization length in phase-field models is important for both macroscopic mechanical behavior and local crack propagation patterns. Wu's phase-field model has been successful in reducing length sensitivity for homogeneous materials, and it has also been found to be more suitable than Miehe's model for brittle failure with the introduction of an elastic stage. The sensitivity of Wu's model for heterogeneous materials has also been investigated in this study.

Summary: Tensile testing of unidirectional composites often results in premature failure in the end tab region. This study investigates different conventional and novel designs to find the method that minimizes geometric discontinuity and maximizes failure strain. Finite element models are used to predict stress concentrations and optimize the geometry of the end tabs. Experimental results show that specimens with novel arrow-shaped tabs and continuous tabs yield the highest failure strain, avoiding premature failure effectively.

A pull-through friction testing device was developed to characterize the tool-ply friction behavior of jute/PLA prepreg at elevated temperature. The effects of alkali treatment, fiber orientation, normal force, and slipping velocity were studied, and a quantitative definition of tool-ply friction behavior was achieved. The results indicate a strong relationship between tool-ply friction behavior and woven and fiber structures, indicating hydrodynamic lubrication.
