Testing of Space Frames Made of Composite Materials

Abstract:

Innovative development and production trends particularly in automotive and aerospace industries significantly influence also design of opening panels assemblies (doors, windows, stiffened panels etc.). New trends show that metal constructions of these modules will be gradually replaced by new material conceptions leading to hybrid plastic material-composite-metal constructions. This fact is logically reflected by methods and methodologies in testing, used both in pre-development, prototype and finally even in batch phase of the development and production. The main topic of the paper deals with presentation of several testing devices and used measurement methods for testing of qualitative parameters of rigidity and strength of both the whole module groups and their fundamental reinforcing components made of composite materials.
