Book Description
Advanced Composite Materials for Aerospace Engineering: Processing, Properties and Applications predominately focuses on the use of advanced composite materials in aerospace engineering. It discusses both the basic and advanced requirements of these materials for various applications in the aerospace sector, and includes discussions on all the main types of commercial composites that are reviewed and compared to those of metals. Various aspects, including the type of fibre, matrix, structure, properties, modeling, and testing are considered, as well as mechanical and structural behavior, along with recent developments. There are several new types of composite materials that have huge potential for various applications in the aerospace sector, including nanocomposites, multiscale and auxetic composites, and self-sensing and self-healing composites, each of which is discussed in detail. The book's main strength is its coverage of all aspects of the topics, including materials, design, processing, properties, modeling and applications for both existing commercial composites and those currently under research or development. Valuable case studies provide relevant examples of various product designs to enhance learning. - Contains contributions from leading experts in the field - Provides a comprehensive resource on the use of advanced composite materials in the aerospace industry - Discusses both existing commercial composite materials and those currently under research or development

Effects of fiber diameter and matrix alloys on impact-resistant boron/aluminum composites

ISBN:
Category : Aircraft gas-turbines
Languages : en
Pages : 44
Book Description
Efforts to improve the impact resistance of B/Al are reviewed and analyzed. Nonstandard thin-sheet Charpy and Izod impact tests and standard full-size Charpy impact tests were conducted on composites containing unidirectional 0.10-,0.14-, and 0.20-mm-(4-, 5.6-, and 8-mil- ) diameter boron fibers in 1100, 2024, 5052, and 6061 Al matrices. Impact failure modes of B/Al are proposed in an attempt to describe the mechanisms involved and to provide insight for maximizing impact resistance. The impact strength of B/Al was significantly increased by proper selection of materials and processing. The use of a ductile matrix (1100 Al) and large-diameter (8-mil) boron fibers gave the highest impact strengths. This combination resulted in improved energy absorption through matrix shear deformation and multiple fiber breakage.
