Matrix cracking of fiber-reinforced ceramic composites in shear
The mechanics of cracking in fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) under general loadings remains incomplete. The present paper addresses one outstanding aspect of this problem: the development of matrix cracks in unidirectional plies under shear loading. To this end, we develop a model based on potential energy differences upstream and downstream of a fully bridged steady-state mat...
متن کاملCracking in brittle laminates from concentrated loads
A study is made of the crack resistance of multilaminates consisting of brittle layers interleaved with compliant interlayers and bonded to compliant substrates. Specific attention is paid to flexure-generated radial cracks in the undersurfaces of individual glass layers from concentrated loads applied at the top surfaces. A proposed condition for acceptance of such multilayer systems is that r...
متن کاملFinite element modelling of inter-ply delamination and intra-yarn cracking in textile laminates
The aim of the current study is to demonstrate the effect of inter-ply delamination on stiffness degradation of multi-ply woven composites. Such a demonstration becomes possible due to new technique of modelling textile laminates. It is based on set of boundary value problems for unit cell of a single ply, where boundary conditions imitate interaction with the other plies. Once these problems a...
متن کاملStiffness Changes in Fiber-reinforced Polymeric Matrix Laminates Caused by Intralaminar Damage
In the present paper the damage of fiber-reinforced polymeric matrix laminates is considered with the aim to examine their mechanical properties. The damage mode in the form of intralaminar cracks (“primary matrix cracking”) is described in terms of second order, symmetrical damage tensor by Vakulenko and Kachanov. It allows for considering the orientation of the defects, which is determined by...
متن کاملModeling damage in polymeric composites
We postulate that dominant damage modes in a fiber-reinforced laminated composite are fiber breakage, matrix cracking, fiber/ matrix debonding, and delamination/sliding. The first three damage modes are represented by internal variables with their development governed by constitutive relations. The delamination/sliding failure mode is presumed to initiate at a point on an interface between two ...
