Based on, but not limited to, advanced materials and production technologies, the demand for natural resources and CO2 emmissions are reduced by lightweighting during production, as well as use phase. Therefore, lightweighting is a crucial transformation technology assisting in decoupling economic growth from resource consumption. In this manner, lightweighting contributes significantly as a key technology of relevance for many industrial sectors such as energy, mobility, and infrastructure, towards resource efficiency, climate action and economic strength, as well as a resilient Europe.

The reinforcing component was glass fibers and the matrix polymer was PA6.6 and PPA. It is demonstrated for the first time that the push-out technique ca be applied on injection molded short fiber PMC and is sensitive to the mechanical interface properties.

T1 - Influence of cooling rate on the properties of carbon fiber unidirectional composites with polypropylene, polyamide 6, and polyphenylene sulfide matrices N2 - The longitudinal and transverse strength of three unidirectional thermoplastic prepreg systems: carbon fiber/polypropylene (CF/PP), polyamide 6 (CF/PA6), and polyphenylene sulfide (CF/PPS) are studied and analytical formulas are proposed for the estimation of matrix and fiber/matrix interface properties from composites properties. Since the matrices are semi-crystalline thermoplastics, the influence of cooling rate on the strength is statistically evaluated. While the 0° tensile strength is found to be independent of the cooling rate, the 90° tensile strength is strongly influenced by the matrix type and cooling rate. The matrix modulus increases as the cooling rate is decreased; the degree of crystallinity also increases. The matrix residual stress, interfacial shear strength, and mode II interlaminar fracture toughness are also found to depend on the cooling rate, with the trends different for different matrices.

A recently proposed application involves ceramic springs with metallized surfaces as capacitive force sensor. A strictly linear stress-strain characteristic of the spring is a precondition for such a sensor. Helical ceramic springs with rectangular cross-section have been produced from sintered hollow cylinders. Alumina, ATZ, Y-TZP, and Ce-TZP springs with identical dimensions were characterized and compared regarding deformation behavior. Spring deformation was investigated under various load scenarios. Dynamic compression was performed with deformation speeds from 0.3 to 30 mm/min. Spring constants of alumina springs are strain rate independent. By contrast, Y-TZP spring constant increases by approximately 3 % within the experimental framework. A high-precision test facility was developed to characterize spring displacement in nm range under static tensile load over long periods of time. Spring elongation with asymptotic course was observed for zirconia containing materials at room temperature. This effect is particularly strong in the case of Y-TZP. Up to 0.3 % time-dependent elongation was measured after 24 h under constant load. Deformation is completely reversible after unloading. Alumina springs do not show any time-dependent deformation under identical test conditions. Contrary to alumina springs, a non-linear stress-strain behavior of TZP springs at room temperature was proved in both test series. It is supposed, that pseudo-elasticity caused by stress-induced phase transformation from tetragonal to monoclinic is responsible for this special behavior of TZP springs.

T1 - Experimental and numerical multiscale approach to thermally cycled FRP N2 - Due to the different thermal expansion of the constituent materials, cyclic thermal loading of FRP induces alternating stresses in the material at two scales: at the micro scale (level of fibre–matrix-interaction) and at the macro scale (level of the multidirectional laminate). Especially the micro scale effect is not comprehensively investigated yet. Additionally, computational investigations mostly neglect this effect due to the homogenous modelling of the composite material. As this effect is assumed to significantly contribute to the fatigue of FRP at thermal loads, the present paper suggests an experimental and numerical multiscale approach including Experiments at the different involved material scales to separately observe the effects acting at these scales. The approach also includes numerical modelling for each scale to complement the knowledge gained from the Experiments and to create a basis for the consideration of the micro effect even in macroscopic fatigue models treating homogeneous modelled composites. The main focus of the contribution is to bring the overall Approach up for discussion, rather than to present the multiscale modelling details.

A1 - Kalinka, Gerhard T1 - Helical zirconia (TZP) springs manufacturing and testing under mechanical and thermal load N2 - Helical springs with a rectangular cross-section have been machined from sintered and grinded hollow cylinders with high geometrical precision and good reproducibility. Such springs made from tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (TZP) ceramic show excellent edge quality because of high fracture toughness and bending strength of the starting material. Hence, springs with desired geometric dimension and tailored spring constant can be manufactured for highly demanding applications at high temperatures and in harsh environments. Prior to any practical use, application limits of springs under mechanical and thermal load have to be analyzed. Therefore, different displacement experiments were carried out on the helical TZP springs. - Dynamic displacement tests at various temperatures from -15°C to +60°C using a piezo actor to load/unload springs with frequencies between 1 and 40 Hz: Springs remained undamaged and the spring constants were not altered, even after more than one million cycles of compression loading. - Long-time displacement measurements under static tensile loading at room temperature with a high-precision interferometer test facility: Significant spring elongation under constant strain was surprisingly proved over a period of many hours already at room temperature. - Creeping experiments for 48 h under static compression load at different temperatures up to 1000 °C: After cooling down and load removing no permanent length reduction of springs was observed for test temperatures up to 700 °C. However, reshaping of TZP springs by plastic deformation is possible at higher temperatures and opens up additional possibilities for spring design and manufacturing.

T1 - The Adhesion of Plasma Nanocoatings Controls the Shear Properties of GF/Polyester Composite N2 - High-performance fibre-reinforced polymer composites are important construction materials based not only on the specific properties of the reinforcing fibres and the flexible polymer Matrix but also on the compatible properties of the composite interphase. First, oxygen-free (a-CSi:H) and oxygen-binding (a-CSiO:H) plasma nanocoatings of different mechanical and tribological properties were deposited on planar silicon dioxide substrates that closely mimic E-glass. The nanoscratch test was used to characterize the nanocoating adhesion expressed in terms of critical normal load and work of adhesion. Next, the same nanocoatings were deposited on E-glass fibres, which were used as reinforcements in the polyester composite to affect its interphase properties. The shear properties of the polymer composite were characterized by macro- and micromechanical tests, namely a short beam shear test to determine the short-beam strength and a single fibre push-out test to determine the interfacial shear strength. The results of the polymer composites showed a strong correlation between the short-beam strength and the interfacial shear strength, proving that both tests are sensitive to changes in fibre-matrix adhesion due to different surface modifications of glass fibres (GF). Finally, a strong correlation between the shear properties of the GF/polyester composite and the adhesion of the plasma nanocoating expressed through the work of adhesion was demonstrated. Thus, increasing the work of adhesion of plasma nanocoatings from 0.8 to 1.5 mJ·m−2 increased the short-beam strength from 23.1 to 45.2 MPa. The results confirmed that the work of adhesion is a more suitable parameter in characterising the level of nanocoating adhesion in comparison with the critical normal load.

T1 - Reducing the raw material usage for room temperature infusible and polymerisable thermoplastic CFRPs through reuse of recycled waste matrix material N2 - In this work, a closed loop recycling process is investigated, which allows polymerised bulk thermoplastic matrix (Elium 150) from production waste (also referred to as recyclate) to be reused as additive in composite manufacturing by vacuum assisted resin infusion (VARI) of virgin Elium 150 monomer. It is shown that this process can save up to 7.5 wt% of virgin material usage in each processing cycle. At the same time, the thermal stability and stiffness of the composite increases with the proportion of recyclate introduced. Contemporarily, the shear and bending properties have also been observed to improve. Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) showed that the changes observed are due to an increase in molecular weight with the recyclate content. In particular, a correlation between the molecular weight and the shear properties of the composite was discovered using single fibre push-out tests.

T1 - Microscale evaluation of epoxy matrix composites containing thermoplastic healing agent N2 - Among the strategies to produce healable thermosetting systems is their modification by the addition of thermoplastic particles. This work investigates the influence of poly(ethylene-co-methacrylic acid) (EMAA) on fibermatrix interfacial properties of a glass fiber reinforced epoxy matrix composite. Epoxy-EMAA interactions were evaluated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and infrared spectroscopy. The effects of EMAA on the epoxy network formation were evidenced by changes in glass transition temperature, cure kinetics and alteration of chemical groups during cure. Interfacial shear strength (IFSS) measurements obtained by single fiber pull-out tests indicate similar interfacial properties for pure and EMAA modified epoxy. Additionally, the potential for self-healing ability of an EMAA modified epoxy was demonstrated. However, IFSS after a healing cycle for the EMAA modified epoxy was lower as compared to the pure epoxy, because of the lower fiber-EMAA interfacial shear strength. So, thermoplastic healing agents has not only to fill cracks in the matrix material, but also have to be optimized regarding its interface properties to the reinforcing fibers.

The 2nd generation composites have been compared in terms of bulk and interfacial properties against counteparts processed with virgin carbon fibre fabric infused with the same matrices. Generally, an increase in damping (tanδ) was observed in all 2nd generation composites, which can be attributed to a residual thin thermoplastic layer present on the recovered fibres. The interfacial adhesion of the 2nd generation Composites was investigated by shear tests and scanning electron micsoscopy, and also appears to be less influenced by the type of matrix.

Experimental results of our pull-out tests on several fiberepolymer matrix systems showed that td and Gic weakly depended on geometrical factors. However, the pull-out test appeared to be sensitive to the conditions of specimen formation and testing, such as changing the nature of the contacting surfaces (fiber sizing) and the fiber pull-out rate. Of several methods of td and Gic Determination from a forceedisplacement curve, the most reliable and reproducible one is the approach based on the values of the maximum force recorded in a pull-out test and the interfacial frictional force immediately after fiber debonding.

There is a tremendous potential value of cellulose because of ist being the most abundant biopolymer on earth, swellability, and functional groups to be modified. A novel, highly efficient route for the fabrication of mechanically stable and natural hydrogels is described in which cellulose and glycine are dissolved in an alkaline solution of NaOH and neutralized in an acidic solution. The dissolving temperature and the glycine amount are essential parameters for the self-assembly of cellulose chains and for Tuning the morphology and the aggregate structures of the resulting hydrogels. Glycine plays the role of a physical crosslinker based on the Information obtained from FTIR and Raman spectra. Among the prepared set of hydrogels, CL5Gly30 hydrogels have the highest capacity to absorb water. The prepared CL5Gly30 gels can absorb up to seven times their dry weight due to its porous 3-D network structure. CL5Gly10 hydrogel exhibits 80% deformation under 21 N force executed. The method developed in this article can contribute to the application of heavy metal adsorption in aqueous solutions for water purification and waste management.

The water content reached 0.97 wt%, 1.45 wt% and 1.63 wt%, respectively. The studied GFRP matrix was inert to hydrolysis or chain scission, allowing for investigation of irreversible changes in the fiber-matrix interphase due to hydrothermal aging upon re-drying. During each period, a subset of the specimens was removed from the water bath and dried in a chamber. The weight loss upon drying was explained with epoxy leaching (impurities), sizing-rich interphase hydrolysis, glass fiber surface hydrolysis, accumulated degradation products escaping, and water changing state from bound to free. The influence of hydrothermal aging on the fiber-matrix interfacial properties was investigated. Lower interfacial strength of hydrothermally aged (wet) samples was attributed to plasticization of the epoxy, plasticization and degradation of the sizing-rich interphase (including formation of hydrolytic flaws), and hydrolytic degradation of the glass fiber surface. The kinetics of epoxy-compatible epoxysilane W2020 sizing-rich interphase hydrolysis provided an estimate of ca. 1.49%, 4.80%, and 8.49% of the total composite interphase degraded after 23, 75, and 133 days, respectively. At these conditions, the interface lost 39%, 48%, and 51% of its strength. Upon re-drying the specimens, a significant part of the interfacial strength was regained. Furthermore, an upward trend was observed, being 13%, 10% and 3% strength, respectively; thus, indicating a possibility of partial recovery of properties.

T1 - Tailoring the interfaces in glass fiber-reinforced photopolymer composites N2 - The present work provides a comparative study on the interface and adhesion properties of surface modified single glass fibers embedded in an acrylate matrix. To facilitate a covalent bonding at the fibermatrix interface, the fibers are functionalized with selected organosilanes that comprise either passive (unsaturated C¼C bonds of methacrylate moieties) or photoactive functionalities (photocleavable bis(acyl)phosphane oxide groups). Immobilization of the functional silanes is carried out by a classic silanization reaction involving a condensation reaction across the surface hydroxyl groups of the inorganic glass fibers. The change of the physico-chemical properties of the fibers due to desizing and subsequent surface modification is monitored by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and zeta potential measurements. In addition, scanning electron microscopy is used to follow the changes in surface morphology. After the modification step, the desized and modified single fibers are embedded in a photocurable acrylate resin formulation. By performing single fiber pull-out tests, maximum pull-out force, friction strength and apparent interfacial shear strength are determined as a function of the coupled silanes. The results reveal that the attached organosilanes lead to a significant increase in adhesion strength, whilst the performance of the photo-cleavable organosilane is superior to the passive methacryl-functional derivative.

T1 - Light-cured polymer electrodes for non-invasive EEG recordings N2 - We invented the first non-metallic, self-adhesive and dry biosignalling electrode. The PEDOT polymer electrode changes its aggregate state and conductivity by a light curing procedure. The electrode can be applied as a gel underneath hair without shaving. With the aid of blue light, the electrode can be hardened within a few seconds at the desired location on the scalp. The cured polymer electrode is highly conductive and can be applied on a very small location. Unlike other EEG electrodes, our electrode does not lose conductivity upon drying. Furthermore, our electrode strongly bonds to Skin and does not require any additional adhesive. Short circuits due to an outflow of gel are prevented with this technique. Therefore, the PEDOT polymer electrode is extremely well suited for applications that, up to now, have been challenging, such as non-invasive EEG recordings from awake and freely moving animals, EEG recordings from preterm babies in the neonatal intensive care unit or long-term recordings in the case of sleep monitoring or epilepsy diagnostics. We addressed two technical questions in this work. First, is the EEG recorded with polymer electrodes comparable to a standard EEG? Second, is it possible to record full-band EEGs with our electrodes?

According to the results of the spring constant determination under deformation rates of 3 mm/min, the deformation behavior of all ceramic springs obeys to Hook’s law. However, variation of the deformation rate, tests under constant load, and spring recovery behavior revealed differences in the deformation behavior of alumina, TZP, and ATZ springs. Alumina springs exhibited time-independent deformation in all tests. In contrast, anelastic deformation at room temperature was demonstrated in all springs containing TZP. This deformation is completely reversible over a period of several days. Anelastic behavior is particularly pronounced in Y-TZP springs, whereas Ce-TZP springs exhibit comparatively very low but still reliably detectable anelasticity. Oxygen vacancies in the TZP ceramic are considered the most likely explanation for the anelastic behavior of TZP springs at room temperature.

T1 - Carbon nanotube enhanced carbon Fibre-Poly(ether ether ketone) interfaces in model hierarchical composites N2 - Poly (ether ether ketone) (PEEK) has a high continuous service temperature, excellent mechanical properties, and good solvent and abrasion resistance, which can be further improved through the addition of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). CNT-PEEK nanocomposites are promising matrices for continuous carbon fibre composites; powder processing can mitigate the high melt viscosities in these systems. In this study, model single fibre (hierarchical) composites were produced by embedding sized and desized carbon fibres in nanocomposite CNTPEEK powders followed by single fibre pull-out tests to assess interfacial characteristics. Carbon fibre-PEEK interfacial shear strength is typically 40–45 MPa. Increasing CNT loadings increased fibre-matrix interfacial shear strength linearly up to ~70 MPa at 5.0 wt%, which was attributed to the CNT-based mechanical modification of the PEEK matrix. Apparent interfacial shear strength was inversely correlated with the embedded fibre length irrespective of carbon fibre sizing or CNT loading, indicating brittle fracture of the fibre-matrix interface. Pulled out carbon fibres were still coated with the matrix, which indicated strong adhesion at the interface in all samples, likely related to a transcrystalline region. Adhesion was, however, negatively affected by the presence of epoxy sizings. Frictional shear strength was independent of embedded fibre length and CNT content for all samples.

T1 - Nano-indentation of native phytoliths and dental tissues: implications for herbivore-plant combat and dental wear proxies N2 - Tooth wear induced by abrasive particles is a key process affecting dental function and life expectancy in mammals. Abrasive particles may be plant endogenous opal phytoliths, exogene wind-blown quartz dust or rain borne mineral particles ingested by mammals. Nano-indentation hardness of abrasive particles and dental tissues is a significant yet not fully established parameter of this tribological system. We provide consistent nano-indentation hardness data for some of the major antagonists in the dental tribosystem (tooth enamel, tooth dentine and opaline phytoliths from silica controlled cultivation). All indentation data were gathered from native tissues under stable and controlled conditions and thus maximize comparability to natural systems. Here we show that native (hydrated) wild boar enamel exceeds any hardness measures known for dry herbivore tooth enamel by at least 3 GPa. The native tooth enamel is not necessarily softer then environmental quartz grit, although there is little overlap. The native hardness of the tooth enamel exceeds that of any silica phytolith hardness recently published. Further, we find that native reed phytoliths equal native suine dentine in hardness, but does not exceed native suine enamel. We also find that native suine enamel is significantly harder than dry enamel and dry phytoliths are harder than native phytoliths. Our data challenge the claim that the culprit of tooth wear may be the food we chew, but suggest instead that wear may relates more to exogenous than endogenous abrasives.

T1 - Alterungsbeständige keramische Federsensoren durch nanostrukturierte Werkstoffe, Präzisionsbearbeitung und hochdielektrische Nanosuspensionen N2 - Das Ziel des Gesamtvorhabens bestand darin, einen neuartigen kapazitiven Sensortyp zur hochauflösenden Bestimmung von Masse- und Gravitationskraftänderungen zu entwickeln. Bisherige Technologien nutzten dafür Federn oder Biegebalken aus gehärteten metallischen Werkstoffen, deren Alterungsverhalten die Präzision der Kräftemessung begrenzen. Grundprinzip des neuen Sensortyps ist es, eine auf die keramische Feder einwirkenden Änderung der Gewichts- oder Gravitationskraft durch eine Erfassung der Kapazitätsänderung am Sensor zu bestimmen. Dazu muss die durch Stauchung oder Dehnung der Feder entstehende Kapazitätsänderung mit hoher Auflösung reproduzierbar gemessen werden. Neben einem geeigneten Sensordesign waren Lösungen für Messsignalerfassung und -auswertung (Elektronik/Software) und die Systemintegration zu entwickeln. Die wichtigsten im Rahmen des BAM-Teilvorhabens erzielten Ergebnisse sind: - Ausgehend von kommerziellen High-end Keramikpulvern wurden durch Optimierung der keramischen Technologie nahezu porenfreie Al2O3, ZrO2 und Si3N4-Werkstoffe hergestellt und bezüglich Gefüge und Phasenbestand sowie mechanischen, thermischen und elektrischen Eigenschaften bewertet. Insbesondere die defektfreie Herstellung von nanostrukturierten Werkstoffen erforderte umfangreiche Variationen der Prozessparameter. Geeignete Werkstoffvarianten wurden für die Federherstellung ausgewählt. - Gemeinsam mit den Projektpartnern wurden Layoutvarianten für Schraubendruckfedern mit rechteckigem Windungsquerschnitt und für die Federeinbindung in das Sensorsystem erarbeitet. - 4 Federvarianten wurden an der BAM durch Hartbearbeitung von gesinterten Hohlzylindern umgesetzt. Fertigungstoleranzen von < ±10 µm für Windungsbreite, Windungshöhe und Windungsabstand und dünnfilm-kompatible innere Windungsflächen (Ra < 0,2 µm) wurden erreicht. Al2O3- und ZrO2-Federn können rissfrei und mit sehr guter Kantenqualität gefertigt werden, bei Si3N4-Federn konnten Kantenschädigungen nicht vollständig verhindert werden. - Mit der entwickelten Herstellungstechnologie können sowohl „harte“ als auch sehr „weiche“ Federn produziert werden. Federkonstanten zwischen 0,02 N/mm und 10 N/mm wurden realisiert. Die Reproduzierbarkeit der Federfertigung ist gegeben, innerhalb einer Charge unterschieden sich die Federkonstanten der gefertigten Federn nur um etwa +/- 1%. - An einem speziell entwickelten Versuchsstand wurden die Federn unter zyklischer Druckbelastung im Temperaturbereich von -20 bis +80 °C untersucht. An den Al2O3- und ZrO2-Federn wurden keine Schädigungen beobachtet, die Federkonstante wird durch die zyklische Langzeitbelastung nicht verändert. - Die Eignung der keramischen Federn für den Applikationsfall wurde mit zahlreichen Spannungs-Dehnungs-Experimenten, teilweise an speziell aufgebauten Versuchsapparaturen, untersucht. An Al2O3- und Si3N4-Federn wurde – wie erwartet – gefunden, dass die Federkonstante unabhängig von der Belastungsgeschwindigkeit ist und unter konstanter Last auch über lange Zeiträume keine Verformung auftritt. Überraschenderweise zeigten ZrO2 (TZP)-Federn ein zeitabhängiges Verhalten unter Last. Dieses ist besonders stark bei Y-stabilisierten Werkstoffvarianten ausgebildet, wurde aber mit Hochpräzisionsmessungen auch bei Ce-stabilsierten Werkstoffen nachgewiesen. Die Deformation ist reversibel, eine vollständige Relaxation wird erst nach Tagen erreicht. Aufgrund der zeitabhängigen Verformung können ZrO2 (TZP)-Federn, trotz ihrer hervorragenden Festigkeit und Bruchzähigkeit, nicht für die konzipierten Sensorfedern eingesetzt werden. - Das durch die Fa. Siegert TFT entwickelte Metallisierungs-Schichtsystem, bestehend aus aufgesputterten Ti-, Pt- und Au-Schichten verstärkt durch eine galvanisch aufgebrachte Au-Schicht, wurde an der BAM umfassend bewertet. Die Schichten sind untereinander und mit der Keramik weitgehend defektfrei verbunden, die lokale Schichtdicke schwankt jedoch bedingt durch Abschattungseffekte während der Beschichtungsvorgang. Es wurden Schichtwiderstände zwischen 50 und 90 Ohm und damit die Zielvorgabe des Projektes (< 100 Ohm) erreicht. In statischen und dynamischen Belastungstests wurden keine Veränderungen der Leitungswiderstände festgestellt. - Zur Erhöhung der Kapazität des Kondensators kann der Raum zwischen den Federwindungen statt mit Luft mit einer Flüssigkeit mit hoher Dielektrizitätskonstante gefüllt werden. Als geeignete Flüssigkeit wurde Propylencarbonat mit einer Dielektrizitätskonstante von 65, einem hohen Siedepunkt und einer geringen Viskosität identifiziert. Um eine noch höhere Dielektrizitätskonstante zwischen den Federwindungen zu erreichen. wurden Suspensionen aus Silikonöl und nanokristallinem Bariumtitanat hergestellt und bezüglich ihrer Langzeitstabiltät charakterisiert. - Gemäß den Anforderungen des Projektpartners KOMPASS wurden maßgeschneiderte Al2O3-Federn mit einer Federkonstante < 0,1 N/mm hergestellt und für den Aufbau des finalen Demonstrator eingesetzt. Die prinzipielle Funktionsfähigkeit des neuen Sensorkonzeptes auf Basis keramischer Federn wurde mit dem im Projekt aufgebauten Demonstrator nachgewiesen. Die Umsetzung der F+E-ergebnisse in eine industrielle Nutzung zur Herstellung von Gravimetern wird vom Projektpartner KOMPASS angestrebt und ist bereits mit detaillierten Zeitplänen untersetzt.

Die so hergestellten Strukturen sind in der Regel nicht nur mechanischen Belastungen, sondern auch thermischen Lasten in einem breiten Temperaturspektrum ausgesetzt. Dennoch ist die Auswirkung des Temperatureinflusses bei einer Kombination von thermischer und mechanischer Last auf die Lebensdauer von Strukturen aus FKV bisher nur wenig untersucht. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wird der Einfluss von Temperaturen zwischen 213 K und 343 K auf einen Glasfaser-Epoxidharz-Verbund experimentell untersucht. Das Material wird in diesem Temperaturbereich eingehend charakterisiert: Es werden sowohl die thermomechanischen Eigenschaften von Faser- und Matrixwerkstoff als auch die des Verbundes ermittelt. In einem weiteren Schritt wird dann der Einfluss der Temperatur auf die Schädigungsentwicklung im quasi-statischen Lastfall sowie unter schwingender Ermüdungsbeanspruchung bei verschiedenen FKV-Mehrschichtverbunden analysiert. Basierend auf den experimentellen Daten wird ein Zusammenhang zwischen der Schädigung und der Anstrengung der Matrix innerhalb der Einzelschicht demonstriert. Die Matrixanstrengung wird mithilfe eines mikromechanischen Modells unter Berücksichtigung der thermomechanischen Eigenspannungen analytisch berechnet. Bei Querzugbeanspruchung kann gezeigt werden, dass eine Vorhersage der Schädigung in Abhängigkeit der Volumenänderungsenergie innerhalb der Matrix getroffen werden kann. Mithilfe des Konzepts der Matrixanstrengung ist eine Vorhersage der Lebensdauer des Werkstoffs unter schwingender Ermüdungsbeanspruchung in Abhängigkeit der Einsatztemperatur möglich. N2 - Due to their superior lightweight properties, fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) materials are well established in various fields, such as sports equipment, aerospace or wind energy structures. These structures are not only subjected to mechanical loads, but also to a broad spectrum of thermal environments. However, the impact of temperature on the fatigue life of thermomechanically loaded FRP structures is barely investigated to-date. In the scope of this work, the influence of temperatures in a range of 213 K to 343 K on a glass fiber reinforced epoxy polymer is experimentally examined. An extensive thermo-mechanical characterization of the static properties of the material is performed. The neat resin and Fiber material are investigated, as well as the composite. In addition, the impact of thermal loads on the damage evolution under quasi-static as well as cyclic fatigue loading is investigated for different multi-angle laminates. Based on the experimental data, a correlation is shown between damage and matrix effort of the unidirectional layer. The matrix effort is calculated according to a micromechanical model considering thermal residual stresses. Particularly under transverse loading, the damage Evolution can be predicted as a function of the dilatational strain energy of the matrix. Using the concept of the matrix effort presented in this work, a prediction of the fatigue life of the investigated material at different ambient temperature conditions can be performed.
