Full field methods and residual stress analysis in orthotropic material. I Linear approach

This work analyzes the problem of residual stress determination in an orthotropic material using the hole drilling technique combined with non-contact, full field optical methods. Due to the complex behavior of the material, first a solution algorithm for the isotropic case is analyzed, then the procedure is extended to solving the more complex problem. In the first part of the work, the simplified Smith–Schajer solution to the through-hole problem for an orthotropic material is analyzed, showing that the same linear least square approach used in the isotropic case applies to a large set of orthotropic materials; based on this analysis a simple residual stress measurement algorithm is developed using either analytical or numerically estimated calibration coefficients.In the second part of the work, the general solution is discussed: since in this case the simplified Smith–Schajer solution cannot be used, the Lekhnitskii’s analysis of the through-hole plate in tension is introduced and extended to handle residual stresses. On this basis a solution algorithm using the nonlinear fit of the theoretical displacement field capable of treating all the orthotropic materials at the cost of a more complex numerical procedure is proposed. The performances of both algorithms are tested against numerically generated noisy fields and experimental ones and show a good reliability and accuracy.     

Thermal bending analysis of laminated orthotropic plates by the generalized differential quadrature method

The interlaminar stresses in a thin laminated rectangular orthotropic plate with four sides simply supported edges under bending was determined by using the generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method involving the effects of thermal expansion strain and transverse load. The approximate stress and displacement solutions are obtained under the effects of thermal expansion force and uniform pressure load for eight-layer unidirectional laminates, symmetric cross-ply laminates. Numerical results on the dominant interlaminar stresses and displacement of bending analysis are compared to the Navier solution. The thermal induced forces have significant effect on the bending of plates.

Interface crack problems for mode Ⅱ of double dissimilar orthotropic composite materials

The fracture problems near the interface crack tip for mode Ⅱ of double dissimilar orthotropic composite materials are studied. The mechanical models of interface crack for mode Ⅱ are given. By translating the governing equations into the generalized bi-harmonic equations,the stress functions containing two stress singularity exponents are derived with the help of a complex function method. Based on the boundary conditions,a system of non-homogeneous linear equations is found. Two real stress singularity exponents are determined be solving this system under appropriate conditions about himaterial engineering parameters. According to the uniqueness theorem of limit,both the formulae of stress intensity factors and theoretical solutions of stress field near the interface crack tip are derived. When the two orthotropic materials are the same,the stress singularity exponents,stress intensity factors and stresses for mode Ⅱ crack of the orthotropic single material are obtained.     

Stress analysis of an orthotropic material under diametral compression

The diametral compression test is commonly used to determine the tensile strength of brittle materials. For isotropic materials a simple relation based on specimen geometry and the applied load at failure is used to calculate the tensile strength. Previous to this work the effect of material orthotropy and material orientation on the specimen stress state had not been completely determined. In this study, both isotropic and orthotropic specimens were analyzed using a finite element analysis and experimentally verified by strain gage and photoelastic measurements. Further, this work investigated the effect of the applied load area on the specimen stress state. Results of this work show that there is a significant difference between the theoretical calculations based on the assumption of material isotropy when compared to an orthotropic material. This difference can be as much as 45 percent depending on the degree of orthotropy and the orientation. It was also determined that the applied load area and material orientation significantly influence the specimen stress state. An applied load area of 8 percent of the circumference was found to reduce the stresses in the applied load region.     

Interface crack problems for mode II of double dissimilar orthotropic composite materials

The fracture problems near the similar orthotropic composite materials are interface crack tip for mode Ⅱ of double disstudied. The mechanical models of interface crack for mode Ⅱ are given. By translating the governing equations into the generalized hi-harmonic equations, the stress functions containing two stress singularity exponents are derived with the help of a complex function method. Based on the boundary conditions, a system of non-homogeneous linear equations is found. Two real stress singularity exponents are determined be solving this system under appropriate conditions about bimaterial engineering parameters. According to the uniqueness theorem of limit, both the formulae of stress intensity factors and theoretical solutions of stress field near the interface crack tip are derived. When the two orthotropic materials are the same, the stress singularity exponents, stress intensity factors and stresses for mode II crack of the orthotropic single material are obtained.     

Non-linear least-squares solution to the moiré hole method problem in orthotropic materials. Part 1: Residual stresses

The hole method problem relates to two inverse problems of interest: the first, most commonly addressed by practitioners, is to obtain residual stresses; the other, generally neglected, inverse problem can be posed as either a stress separation problem or a material elastic properties identification problem. In both this Paper I and Paper II, we pose and solve this dual hole method problem in an orthotropic plate, using computer generated moiré isothetics, by means of a non-linear least-squares approach. In Paper I we address the residual stress problem. In Paper II we pose the use of moiré isothetics as a means to achieve separation of stresses, but we deal with the determination of the five orthotropic elastic constants, four of which are independent.

推荐了一种应变损伤累积模型，能够考虑单向板面内多轴应力和平均应力的影响。只需要单向板在确定应力比下的若干典型疲劳试验结果，就可以预测相同材料体系多向层压结构在不同应力比的循环载荷下的疲劳寿命，有助于降低试验成本和工作量。研究了适用于多向层压结构剩余强度估算和疲劳寿命预测的步骤和程序。针对碳纤维／树脂基T300／QY8911复合材料，试验测定了三组典型单轴循环应力（[0]16拉－拉、[90]16拉－拉和[0/90]4S剪－剪）下的S－N曲线。以此为输入，预测四种多向铺层板在各种拉－拉循环应力下的疲劳寿命，寿命预测结果和相应的试验结果吻合良好。采用了保持计算和试验的载荷／强度比相对等值的方法来近似抵消层合效应对疲劳寿命的影响。强调了进一步发展能够定量估计层间应力影响与分层扩展过程的疲劳损伤模型的重要性。     

Residual strain measurement in composites using the cure-referencing method

This paper describes the details of a novel procedure called the cure-referencing method (CRM) to measure the strains associated with residual stresses on the surface of composite panels. The CRM involves the replication of diffraction gratings onto the surface of composite specimens during the autoclave during cycle. Residual strains associated with the curing process are measured using moiré interferometry at room temperature after the specimens have been taken out of the autoclave. The procedures for both the grating replication and the moiré interferometry experiment are described in detail. A method of high-temperature moiré interferometry was developed to resolve the residual strains due to thermal expansion from those due to chemical matrix shrinkage and stress relaxation. These procedures are demonstrated on unidirectional and multidirectional laminates and on woven textile composites.
