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.
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.
Auf Grund ihres Gewichtsvorteils sind Faserverbundwerkstoffe beim Bau von Hochdruckbehältern die dominierenden Werkstoffe. Mit dem zunehmenden Optimierungsdruck, Materialkosten und Gewicht einzusparen, nimmt das Lastniveau zu, weshalb auch die Bedeutung der Degradationsprozesse steigt. An der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) wird das Alterungsverhalten von Composite-Atemluftflaschen untersucht, um künftig genauere Aussagen zur Abschätzung der Lebensdauer und der damit einhergehenden Festlegung von Prüffristen geben zu können. Gegenstand der vorgestellten Untersuchungen sind Typ-III Druckbehälter, bestehend aus einem Aluminium-Liner und einer kohlefaserverstärkten Armierung. Dabei werden insbesondere Untersuchungen bezüglich der im Metall vorherrschenden Druckeigenspannungen betrachtet, welche zur Steigerung der Lastwechselfestigkeit fertigungsseitig induziert werden. Ziel ist es, mittels einer experimentellen Modalanalyse die inneren Spannungsverhältnisse zerstörungsfrei identifizieren und bewerten zu können. Auf Grund einer Vielzahl von Einflussfaktoren, wie beispielsweise alterungsbedingter Strukturveränderungen im Faserverbundmaterial oder Fertigungsabweichungen, ist jedoch die Einzelbewertung eines Prüfmusters sowie ein qualitativer Vergleich zwischen Behältern desselben Baumusters bisweilen nur schwer möglich. Durch die Vermessung einer Vielzahl von Testbehältern werden zunächst Maß und Umfang der auftretenden Abweichungen modaler Parameter erfasst. Mittels gezielter Modifikation einiger Messobjekte werden anschließend Abhängigkeiten identifiziert. Unterstützt werden die experimentellen Messungen durch die simultane Anwendung eines FE-Models, wobei simulative und experimentelle Ergebnisse verglichen sowie Einflüsse weiterer Parametervariationen numerisch erfasst und abgebildet werden können.
Hydrogen is an attractive energy carrier that requires high effort for safe storage. For ensuring safety, they must undergo a challenging approval process. Relevant standards and regulations for composite cylinders used for the transport of hydrogen and for its onboard storage 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 with respect 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 was exemplarily estimated. The aspect of small sample sizes is analysed and discussed with respect to the evaluation procedures.

Within a current research project at the Federal Institute for Materials Testing and Research (BAM), the degradation process of composite pressure vessels is studied to be able to give more accurate lifetime predictions in future. 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.
At the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und –prüfung (BAM), within a recent research project, the aging process of composite pressure vessels is investigated in order to be able to give more accurate lifetime predictions in future. All investigations are primarily based on type III pressure vessels consisting of an aluminium tank which is fully wrapped with carbon fibre reinforced plastics. Research is focused on 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 of type III pressure vessels change. For measuring and monitoring inner stress conditions, the application of a non-destructive measurement method is aspired.
