“…The results from the mechanical tests for the three properties (tensile, compression and flexural) showed an increase in extension as the load increases till a certain point where the composite failed. The characteristic of the curves for the tensile and flexural tests were also observed in Tamilarasan et al [20], in which the mechanical properties of FML composite of aluminium alloy 6061-T6 sandwiched with carbon reinforced fibre laminates were used, while the compressive curve characteristic was reported by Zikre and Bhatt [32] where glass fibre was used.…”

“…The CARALL has applications in aerospace industry due to its excellent properties including corrosion resistance, lightweight, and resistance to moisture absorption. These properties allow CAR-ALL to replace the metal used as a component in aircraft [19][20][21]. The FML composite has the dual benefit of carbon fibre reinforced as well as aluminium alloy; these benefits provided CAR-ALL with excellent damage tolerance to fatigue crack growth and impact damage to the component [22,23].…”

Two different properties of fibre-metal laminate composites (FML), including the fire behaviour and mechanical properties, were experimentally studied in this paper. The fibre-metal laminate composites studied were made of aluminium alloy 2024-T3, carbon fibre, flax, kenaf and epoxy resin/hardener arranged in different forms. The aims of the study are to assess the fire behaviour of the composites using ISO2685 standard and mechanical properties of the composite after withstanding the burn-through according to the standard. The fire test was carried out using ISO2685 standard using a propane-air burner, whereby the propane gas and air serves as the fluid to the system. The universal testing machine of the 100 kN load cell and gun tunnel were used for the mechanical properties test according to each test standard. The fire results showed that three of the FML composites considered in the study are fireproof composites while carbon fibre kenaf reinforced aluminium laminate (CARALL4) is a fire resistant composite. Carbon fibre reinforced aluminium laminate with aluminium alloy at the front and the rear face (CARALL2) withstood higher flame temperature than the other FML composites with 14.4%, 49.0% and 82.8% greater than CARALL1, CARALL3 and CARALL4 in terms of thermal conductivity. In terms of mechanical properties, it was also CARALL2 that has higher tensile, compressive, flexural and impact strength. Therefore, the study showed that carbon fibre flax reinforced aluminium laminate (CARALL3) which is the hybrid composite with green fibre can compete with fibre-metal laminate composites of pure synthetic fibre in terms of their properties.

“…The phenomenon of fiber pullout implies that the impact of jet and shock waves can cause the laminate materials at different ply angles to break under tensile loading, as shown in Figure 7(d). There are many pits formed when tensile load is applied as shown in Figure 7(e) [20].

Current pyrotechnic separation devices are mainly made of metal materials, limiting the capacity of lightweight design in advanced launching vehicles. With the outstanding mechanical properties, such as high mass-specific strength and modulus, carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRPs) have the potential to replace metal materials in pyrotechnic seperaton devices. However, to improve the seperation reliability of these pyrotechnic separation devices, there still needs further understanding on the the failure mode of CFRP composites under linear shaped charge (LSC). In this paper, cutting tests were carried out on CFRPs for the failure analysis of CFRPs under LSC, and nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA) was performed to characterize the evolution of LSC cutting in CFRPs. According to experimental simulation and numerical simulation, it can be found that the three main failure modes in CERPs while subjected to LSC jet are shear failure, delamination failure, and tensile failure. In the early cutting stage, the initial time of damage of the fiber and the matrix near the shaped charge shows less difference and the laminate is directly separated by the energy of high-speed jet. When the jet velocity decreases, the jet morphology collapses and matrix damages precede into the fiber, which would cause tensile failure mode of CFRPs. Meanwhile, the delamination in low jet speed stages is larger than that in the high jet speed stages. These studies on the failure modes of CFRPs under LSC provide important basis for the future design of CFRP-based pyrotechnic separation devices, which is important to the lightweight design of launching vehicles.

“…Consequently, carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) has emerged as one of the notable accepted retrofitting materials of the civil engineering community in recent years [1]. Several studies account the success of CFRP as reinforcement in a wide variety of applications for different materials such as aluminum [2,3], steel [4,5], and concrete [6][7][8]. The utilization of CFRP as retrofitting material provides technically sound and cost-efficient due to its lightweight, resistance to corrosion, and ease of handling and installation [9][10][11].…”

Abstract. Different retrofitting techniques are commonly used to sustain the design life of heavy damage and deteriorated concrete structures, whilst epoxy-bonded carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) has emerged as a widely known retrofitting method. Consequently, a sound understanding of the bond strength between structural lightweight concrete (LWC) and CFRP based on influential factors is essential in safety and economic requirements. In this study, a hybrid bond strength model using the artificial neural network (ANN) and genetic algorithm (GA) was developed to furtherly understand the bond of a CFRP strengthened LWC structure. ANN was able to establish under satisfactory performance the relationship between the maximum bond load and the following influential parameters: width of CFRP (b frp ), total CFRP bond length (L frp ), CFRP thickness (t frp ), and CFRP angle of orientation (q frp ). Furthermore, GA was able to derive the optimal configuration of the influential parameters resulted in high bond performance. Moreover, the optimization results also validated the sensitivity of each parameter on the interfacial bond behavior between LWC and CFRP.
