The following paper focuses on the evolution of micro damage in short fibre reinforced polyamide. Therefore, tube samples are subjected to uni- and biaxial fatigue loadings. The evolution of micro damage is analysed by the non-destructive method of X-ray refraction analysis with consideration of the fibre orientation distribution. For validation of the applied micro damage models, fractographic analyses are performed.
Concluding some general results, it has been observed that the load ratio influences the quantitative dominance of micro damage, whereas occuring damage phenomena depend on the type of loading (i.e. tension and torsion). Thus, zones in the Haigh-diagram are detected, where the occurence of damage mechanisms qualitatively and quantitatively changes. This is a basis for further research regarding anisotropic damage criteria.
Recently three of the authors of this paper presented analytical solutions for reference loads of plate geometries with semi-elliptical surface cracks subjected to tension, bending, combined tension-bending and biaxial tension. These solutions were shown to provide more accurate crack driving force estimates than the conventional limit load solutions available in the literature, and the method behind them allowed for a wider application range. Within the present paper a methodology for the fracture analysis of thick-wall pressurized pipes using the R6 assessment method and considering both, biaxial and combined tension-bending loading is developed and validated. The analyses are carried out analytically, and the comparison between the predicted critical loads and experimental burst test failure loads shows satisfying agreement, this way demonstrating the potential of the proposed method.
