Hochbeanspruchte Bauteile wie Druckbehälter bergen im Falle eines Versagens ein erhebliches Gefährdungspotential für Mensch und Umgebung. Trotz der Auslegung mit hohen Sicherheitsfaktoren kommt es durch die hauptsächlich bei mobilen Anwendungen eingesetzten Leichtbauwerkstoffe und Materialkombinationen zu komplexen Degradations- und Schädigungsvorgängen, welche unter ungünstigen Umständen zu einem frühzeitigen Versagen führen können. Die hier vorgestellten Untersuchungen beziehen sich auf Typ IV-Gasspeicher, die als Wasserstofftanks in KFZ zur Anwendung kommen. Durch den Einsatz eines Messverfahrens auf Basis einer experimentellen Modalanalyse (EMA) sollen Schädigungs- und Degradationsgrad künftig zerstörungsfrei erfasst und auch einsatzbegleitend überwacht werden können.
The objective of this work is to find a method that describes the degree of damage from an impact experiment. This experiment was performed on Composite Pressure Vessels (CPV) in order to find the correlation of impact damage to the residual burst pressure. Computed Tomography (CT) approach was used to capture the before and after impact condition of the CPVs. The Wasserstein function was used to calculate how much the after impact image has differed from the original one. In the end, a good correlation was obtained to the residual burst pressure.
Degradation and damage analysis of composite pressure vessels via experimental modal analysis
(2023)
For mobile gas storage systems, the application of type IV pressure vessels is state of the art. Type IV tanks consist of an inner polymer liner fully wrapped with fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP). Because of the complex fabric of the FRP as well as a difficulty estimable interaction behaviour between the single components under load, there are still no satisfying non-destructive testing methods to assess the current state of failure nor to estimate the level of degradation accurately and economically. At BAM division 3.5, analysing the ageing process of mobile composite pressure vessels is a major task to ensure safe usage over the whole lifetime. In this context, key aspects of our ongoing research activities are the invention of new test procedures and the development of accurate lifetime prediction models. In order to determine the level of degradation or damage, one meaningful non-destructive approach is to analyse the structural dynamic behaviour via an experimental modal analysis (EMA). Over the last few years, different types and sizes of composite pressure vessels have been tested in several research projects. The presented paper gives an insight into how to extract and interpret modal parameters and how to fit them to the results of residual strength tests.
Due to high specific stiffness, fibre reinforced plastics are the dominant material group for the design of mobile pressure vessels. At the Federal Institute of Materials Research and Testing (BAM) aging process of composite pressure vessels is studied to be able to give more accurate lifetime predictions in future. Investigations are based on type III breathing air cylinders consisting of an aluminium tank which is fully wrapped with carbon fibre reinforced plastics. Goal is to detect changes of residual stresses over life time which directly affect fatigue strength. Within this paper an approach is presented to monitor residual stresses via an experimental modal analysis (EMA). First, the influence of changed stress conditions on modal parameters is analysed via a numerical study. Secondly, a test bench for an EMA is set up. To be able to analyse cylinders of different prestress condition, several specimens are prestress modified via high-temperature and high-pressure treatment. During modification processes, specimens are monitored via optical fibres to control prestress modifications. Through experimental measurements of the modified specimens via EMA changes in prestressing can be detected. Finally, validity and accuracy of the EMA is evaluated critically by comparing all numerically and experimentally obtained data.
Hydrogen is an attractive energy carrier that requires high effort for safe storage. For ensuring safety they have to undergo a challenging approval process. Relevant standards and regulations for composite cylinders used for the transport of for on-board storage of hydrogen are currently based on deterministic (e.g. ISO 11119-3) or semi-probabilistic (UN GTR No. 13) criteria. This paper analysis the properties of such methods in regards to the evaluation of load cycle strength. Their characteristics are compared with the probabilistic approach of the BAM. Based on Monte-Carlo simulations, the available design range (mean value and scatter of strength criteria) of current concepts were exemplarily estimated. The aspect of small sample sizes is analysed and discussed with respect to the evaluation procedures.
Fibre-reinforced plastics (FRP) especially carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) and glass-fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) are commonly used materials in high pressure vessels and storage units for automotive and aerospace purposes. Optical fibres are suitable to be integrated or directly applied to the surface of FRP components. Using optical fibres it is possible to monitor the distributed strain profiles and changes within the fatigue life of a pressure vessel to ensure the operational safety. Within artificial ageing experiments we used swept wavelength interferometry (SWI) based distributed strain sensing for the monitoring of commercial high-pressure composite cylinder. This artificial ageing was performed using test conditions of 503bar pressure load (service pressure 300 bar) and 89 °C for 100 h. The polyimide coated optical fibres were glued to the surface externally in circumferential and axial direction. Using distributed strain sensing (DSS) material expansion of over 0.5% were monitored with sub-centimetre spatial resolution. Within the circumferential direction we observed up to 10 % local fluctuation compared to the median strain caused by inhomogeneous material expansion, which could cause local material fatigue. In addition, we determined material degradation manifested itself as localized remaining material expansion and/or contraction. Results have been validated by other non-destructive methods like digital strip projection.
Sensitivitätsanalyse des Eigenspannungszustandes in Composite-Druckgefäßen mittels Modalanalyse
(2017)
Auf Grund ihrer hohen spezifischen Festigkeit sowie des damit einhergehenden Gewichtsvorteils kommt es bei der Auslegung von Druckgefäßen vermehrt zum Einsatz von faserverstärkten Kunststoffverbunden. Im Rahmen eines Forschungsprojektes an der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und –prüfung (BAM) wird das Alterungsverhalten von Atemluftflaschen in Verbundbauweise untersucht, um künftig genauere Aussagen zur Abschätzung der Lebensdauer geben zu können. Gegenstand der hier aufgezeigten Untersuchungen bilden dabei Typ-III Druckgefäße mit metallischen Liner und einer kohlefaserverstärkten Armierung. Als wichtiger, der Betriebsfestigkeit zugrunde legender Parameter wurden Druckeigenspannungen im Aluminium-Liner ausgemacht, welche fertigungsseitig zur Steigerung der Lastwechselfestigkeit in die Druckgefäße induziert werden.
Ziel ist es, mit Hilfe einer Modalanalyse die aufgezeigten inneren Spannungsverhältnisse durch eine genaue Betrachtung der modalen Parameter zu identifizieren und zu bewerten. Durch den Aufbau eines Finite-Elemente Modells und einer anschließenden Sensitivitätsanalyse der Fertigungsparameter werden zunächst Potential und Aussagekraft des Analyseverfahrens geprüft und bewertet. Anschließend erfolgt eine Eingrenzung relevanter Schwingformen sowie eine Abschätzung zu erwartender spannungsabhängiger Änderungen entsprechender modaler Kennwerte. Durch die Entwicklung und den Aufbau eines geeigneten Prüfstandes werden, darauf aufbauend, im Rahmen einer Betriebsschwingungsanalyse erste Messungen an Atemluftflaschen unterschiedlicher Alterungs- und Schädigungsstufen durchgeführt. Durch einen Vergleich mit Simulationsergebnissen und Erkenntnissen aus alternativ durchgeführten Eigenspannungsmessungen erfolgt abschließend eine kritische Bewertung der experimentell gewonnenen Ergebnisse.
Due to high specific stiffness a nd strength properties, fibre reinforced plastics are used more and more often for the construction of pressure vessels. Within a recent research project run by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM), aging process of composite pressure vessels is investigated in order to be able to give more accurate lifetime predictions in the future. Focus is set on type III pressure vessels consisting of an aluminium tank which is fully wrapped with carbon fibre reinforced plastics. In order to increase high-cycle fatigue, residual stresses are induced into the pressure vessel during manufacturing process. In particular, residual compressive stresses within the inner aluminium layer have been defined as a main parameter affecting fatigue strength. The aim is to identify and evaluate residual stresses of the pressure vessel by analysing its modal parameters. Through the set-up of a finite-element model potential capability and validity for the use of modal analysis is proven and evaluated, considering influences resulting from manufacturing deviations, too. In the following, a number of stress sensitive modes are defined. Based on these preliminary numerical investigations, a test bench is set up in order to measure pressure vessels via an experimental modal analysis. A final critical evaluation regarding the accuracy of the modal analysis is made by comparing experimental results with data obtained through simulations.

The presented research is based on type III pressure vessels consisting of an aluminium tank which is fully wrapped with carbon fibre reinforced plastics. Focus is set on the analysis of residual stresses which are induced into the pressure vessel during manufacturing process in order to increase high cycle fatigue. However, with increasing lifetime residual stress conditions do change. To be able to measure and monitor stress conditions, the application of a non-destructive measurement method is aspired.
In this paper, potential of an experimental modal analysis is worked out to capture and monitor aging and degradation effects in pressure vessels. With the presented method, information about changes in residual stress can be obtained via an analysis of the modal parameters. To realize an application, first, a finite element simulation is used to prove and evaluate potential capability and validity. In the following, a test bench is set up and successively optimized in its accuracy and efficiency. Sensitivity of the applied measurement technique is experimentally ascertained trough the measurement of several prestress modified pressure vessels. Finally, experimental results are interpreted and evaluated with the help of numerically gained findings.
