Compression Failure of Carbon Fiber-Epoxy Laminates in Fire

Abstract: This paper investigates the compression failure of carbon fiber-epoxy laminates when exposed to fire. The investigation gives insights into the softening and failure of carbon-epoxy laminates supporting compression loads in the event of aircraft fire. A thermomechanical model is presented for calculating the compression properties and failure of polymer matrix laminates under combined loading and one-sided heating by fire. The accuracy of the model to predict the failure time of carbon-epoxy laminates at diffe… Show more

“…The temperature range for viscous softening of the epoxy matrix is 50–100°C. The decomposition temperature of epoxy is around 300–450°C and that of carbon fibers is above 500°C . The temperature produced by the electrical spark is in the range of 8,000–12,000°C.…”

“…A large body of research has been published on the fire structural resistance of E-glass reinforced composites under compressive and tensile loading [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. Similarly, the fire resistance of carbon fibre laminates have also been studied [20,21]. However, the structural response and failure of http basalt fibre composites under combined loading and one-sided heating by fire has not been investigated.…”

“…Furthermore, Henderson and Wiecek [9,10] improved the 1D thermal model to predict the thermal behavior of the composite material, taking into account the thermochemical expansion [11] in the depth orientation of the sample, as well as the flow and accumulation of decomposition gases. Gibson and Mouritz et al [12][13][14][15][16], Kandare [17], Desjardin [18], Summers et al [19], and Bhat et al [20,21] further improved the pyrolysis kinetic model for thermal analysis of composite laminates in a fire environment. Anjang et al [22] developed a thermal model for sandwich composites by improving the Henderson and Gibson models.…”
