Prediction of Long-Term Compression Strength for Quasi-Isotropic CFRP Laminates

Article Preview

Abstract:

Long-term strength prediction method is developed based on three theories: accelerated testing methodology (ATM), strain invariant failure theory (SIFT) and progressive damage analysis (PDA). It can predict the strength and damage at a given failure time. Net resin 5228A was experimented by dynamic mechanical analysis and static tensile loading under various temperatures to determine the time-temperature shift factors and master curve of Young’s modulus. Unidirectional laminates of CCF300/5228A were tested under different temperatures to calculate the SIFT/ATM critical parameters. Long-term strength of quasi-isotropic composite laminates (QIL) was predicted. Good agreement between numerical results and experiments is observed, which demonstrates the applicability of this method.
