This paper presents an experimental damage analysis of a 5-harness satin weave carbon-PPS (polyphenylene sulphide) composite under uni-axial static tensile load In order to understand the local damage behaviour, tensile tests were performed and accompanied by acoustic emission (AE) and microscopic analysis of the composite specimen. These tests enable us to detect the damage initiation stress as well as the damage initiation location in the composite Microscopic observation of the tested composite laminates allowed the characterization of the sequence of intra-yarn transverse damage (perpendicular to the load direction) occurrence at different locations in the laminate, starting from crack initiation to the final failure of the composite The earliest crack events occurred inside the laminate middle layers, followed by the damage on the traction free surface It is observed that the initiation of the transverse crack, the location of the crack in the weft yarn cross-section (centre/near the edges) is affected by the relative position of the ply in the laminate (local nesting configuration) The first part of this paper deals with the experimental characterization of sequential damage in a 5-harness satin weave composite. Part II deals with the meso-FE modeling of damage using a satin weave unit cell, and the correlation between experimental and numerical results. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved

Surface quality of printed porous materials for permeability rig calibration

M. Bodaghi, M. Mobin, D. Ban, S. Lomov, M. Nikzad

Summary: This study evaluated the surface quality of textile-like porous media fabricated by different 3D printing techniques using a 3D optical profilometer, with SLA technique producing the smoothest surface. The surface parameters of MJF samples were found to be lower than those of FDM samples, indicating a smoother surface in MJF production compared to FDM due to the different filling patterns.

In-situ synchrotron computed tomography tensile testing observations of the hybrid effect: A comparison with theory

Francisco Mesquita, Yentl Swolfs, Stepan V. Lomov, Larissa Gorbatikh

Summary: This study conducted in-situ synchrotron computed tomography (CT) tensile tests and modeling to investigate the hybrid effect in carbon-glass hybrid composites. The results showed that hybrid composites have a higher fiber break density in their carbon plies compared to non-hybrid carbon fiber composites. Fibers near a ply interface were more likely to fail, augmenting the hybrid effect.

Xiao Ma, Yang Chen, Modesar Shakoor, Dmytro Vasiukov, Stepan V. Lomov, Chung Hae Park

Summary: This paper focuses on the numerical implementation of phase-field models of fracture using the Fast Fourier Transform based numerical method. 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.

Predictive abilities of pseudodiscretization and pseudograin discretization schemes of the Mori-Tanaka homogenization, benchmarked against real and virtual RVEs

Deepjyoti Dhar, Stepan V. V. Lomov, Atul Jain

Summary: In this article, the predictive abilities of two prevalent homogenization formulations, two-step Mori-Tanaka (MT-MT) and MT-Voigt, are benchmarked using virtual representative volume element (RVE) and real RVE. Both schemes have similar predictive capabilities for the effective modulus and phase average stress, but may not accurately predict the strain distribution for complex microstructures.

Implementation of a phase field damage model with a nonlinear evolution in an FFT-based solver

Xiao Ma, Dmytro Vasiukov, Modesar Shakoor, Stepan V. Lomov, Chung Hae Park

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.

Babak Fazlali, Shailee Upadhyay, Sagar Ashokbhai Ashodia, Francisco Mesquita, Stepan Lomov, Valter Carvelli, Yentl Swolfs

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.
