“…FMLs are known to have greater impact resistance than metal alloys and composite materials due to the bridging effect over a crack, which limits the crack propagation. 38 The impact mechanism of FMLs is more complicated than metal alloys and composite materials as their energy dissipation involves elastic–plastic deformation, delamination, fibre pull-out, and fibre breakage. The delamination of FMLs is particularly beneficial to the energy dissipation.…”

Fibre metal laminates are advanced sandwich materials that offer various outstanding properties over conventional metallic alloys and composites. This research study intends to investigate the effects of weaving architectures and stacking configurations on the mechanical properties of fibre metal laminates based on kenaf/pineapple leaf fibre. Fibre metal laminates were fabricated through the hot moulding compression technique. Mechanical tests were performed on the kenaf/pineapple leaf fibre-based fibre metal laminates. In accordance with the findings obtained, hybridisation had led to the improvement in the mechanical properties of fibre metal laminates in comparison with [K/K/K] fibre metal laminates. Overall, twill woven-ply [P/P/P] fibre metal laminates showed the highest tensile and flexural strength, which was 14.53% and 33.50% higher than twill woven-ply [K/K/K] fibre metal laminates, respectively. Besides, the twill woven-ply [P/P/P] fibre metal laminates also displayed the highest impact strength and indentation properties compared to other non-hybrid and hybrid fibre metal laminates. When comparing the fibre metal laminates with different weaving architectures, twill woven-ply fibre metal laminates were shown to have higher mechanical properties over those of plain woven-ply fibre metal laminates.

“…The dispersion of CNTs (0.15, 0.3, and 0.45 wt.%) into the epoxy resin was performed by using the sonication device and mechanical stirrer for 90 min, which was tuned according to the previous works. [24][25][26] The jute (J) and basalt (B) fibers were hybridized in four distinct forms and then sandwiched by aluminum (Al) sheets. These FMLs were fabricated by hand lay-up method and using the press device with the pressure of 5 MPa.…”

In this work, the simultaneous effect of different stacking sequences of basalt/jute fibers and adding the various weight fractions of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the mechanical features of fiber metal laminates (FMLs) under the tensile and impact conditions was assessed. According to the results, the FML had the highest performance under the mechanical tests, when the jute layers were sandwiched by the basalt fibers. In contrast, by sandwiching the basalt fibers with the jute fibers, the FML showed the weakest performance just under the tensile test. This configuration had the moderate performance under the impact test. Incorporating 0.3 wt.% CNTs in all configurations caused to reach the highest improvement in the tensile strength, elastic modulus and impact energy, which were 301 MPa, 50.9 GPa, and 12.3 J, respectively. Reinforcing an adhesion between skin/core and enhancing the mechanical properties of composite core were the effective factors for improving the tensile properties. The delamination of layers, fibrillation of jute fibers, creation of imprint phenomenon, and pull out the basalt fibers were the characterized wasting mechanisms under the impact conditions.

“…Rahamani et al. [94] studied the effect of silica and zirconia nanoparticles on the high velocity impact behavior of FPL treated aluminum/carbon fibers-epoxy laminate composites. The obtained results showed that by adding the 5 wt.% silica and 3 wt.% zirconia nanoparticles, the impact energy was increased about 18 and 12%, respectively.…”

Recently, fiber metal laminates (FMLs) have attracted considerable application in many industries due to their outstanding properties. FMLs are hybrid materials that are fabricated by adhesion of thin layers of metals and fiber-reinforced composites. It should be noted that the reinforcing mechanisms of nanoparticles on the polymeric composites have been well-established, but there is limited literature regarding the influence of nanoparticles on the mechanical behavior of FMLs and adhesively bonded joints (ABJs) between metal sheets and polymeric composites. To date, various nanofillers including carbon nanotubes, graphene nanoplatelets, clay nanoparticles and oxide nanoparticles have been used for improving the mechanical properties of FMLs, and ABJs. The performed studies revealed that the efficiency of nanoparticles in improving the properties of FMLs and ABJs mainly dependent on various factors such as surface treatment of metal sheets, type of nanoparticles, the morphology of nanoparticles, the size of samples, fabrication parameters, etc. However, the effects of parameters on the properties of FMLs and ABJs reinforced with nanoparticles have not considerably discussed in the literature. This review paper aims to review the existing related papers regarding the effects of nanoparticles on the mechanical properties of FMLs and ABJs in the term of adhesion between metal sheets and polymers.
