An effective method for evaluating the fatigue strength of thick unidirectional composite laminates of wing spar caps has been presented here. A typical width-tapered bending specimen has been developed for a four-point loading set up. Static and fatigue loading was performed at a load ratio R = -1. The complex stress state has been investigated numerically by finite element analysis. Finally, the concept is proven experimentally on specimens made of pultruded fibre rods.
The fatigue behavior of the continuously tapered width by water Jet cutting has been compared to discrete tapering via rod-drop. The new method enables a screening of material fatigue behavior caused by normal and shear loading.
Diese DIN SPEC legt ein Verfahren für die Prüfung von unverstärkten und partikel- und kurzfaserverstärkten Kunststoffen mittels Zug-Druck-Schubprüfung fest. Dieses Verfahren findet Anwendung zur Bestimmung der Schwingfestigkeit im Bereich von 103 bis 107 Schwingspielen und der Nachgiebigkeiten unter statischer Belastung sowie der Zugfestigkeit. Alle Beanspruchungen und berechneten Größen sind nennspannungs-basiert.
Grundsätzlich besteht bei Rohrprobekörpern auch die Möglichkeit eine Beanspruchung in Längs- und in Umfangsrichtung durch Innendruck zu erzeugen. Dies wird in dieser Spezifikation nicht berücksichtigt, um die Anwendung überschaubar zu halten. Bei Rohrproben mit ausgeprägter Querschnittsverkleinerung (z. B. der Prüfkörper Typ B), entsteht eine Umfangsspannung auch aufgrund einer Zugkraft (siehe Anhang C). Die Umfangsspannung muss dann mittels FEA lokal berechnet werden.
Das Verfahren gilt für rohrförmige Prüfkörper deren spezifische Form den Anforderungen der Werkstoff-prüfung und bei Kurzfaserverstärkung einer hohen Vorzugsausrichtung in Probenlängsrichtung genügen.
Diese DIN SPEC gilt nicht für endlosfaserverstärkte Kunststoffe. Wegen der vollkommen unterschiedlichen Fertigungstechnologien und der zu erwartenden hohen Prüflasten, sind hier die Anforderungen an die Prüfkörpergeometrie gesondert zu betrachten. Es wird nicht zielführend sein, beide Werkstoffklassen in einer Norm zu behandeln.
The common fatigue life certification of aircrafts according to the certification Standards 23 and 25 follows a building block approach. Static tests at room temperature as well in humid and high temperature conditions are done on the coupon level. Additionally, a full-scale static and fatigue test must be performed on the complete airframe (minimum on the fuselage together with the wing). For each type-certificate the complete building block approach test program must be performed.
Traditionally in Germany, the certification of sailplanes (Certification Standard 22) follows rather a family concept. A shared data base was created over the last 50 years based upon a large number of material testing. In addition to static tests at room temperature and hot-humid conditions, fatigue tests are also done on the coupon level. Additional static and fatigue tests were done on complex structures such as spar-beams, fuselages and full-scale wing structures. However, for each type-certificate, only static tests should be performed in full-scale. This concept is determined by the certification memorandum CM-S-006 “Composite Lightweight Aircraft” 2017.
The presentation was given as an introduction to the discussion about the future expectations and developments of the EASA concerning the type-certification of lightweight aircrafts according to CS22 at the OSTIVE Sailplane Development Panel Meeting at the EASA in Cologne on the 11th of October 2019.
Der Fachbereich Mechanik der Polymerwerkstoffe befasst sich mit der Charakterisierung der mechanischen Eigenschaften und der Degradation von Polymeren und Faserverbundwerkstoffen, die in hochbeanspruchten, sicherheitsrelevanten Konstruktionen wie jenen des Flugzeugbaus, des Automobilbaus und der Windenergie-Industrie eingesetzt werden. Auch die Analyse der chemischen und physikalischen Eigenschaften von Polymeren zählt zu unserem Aufgabenbereich.
Das Spektrum reicht von der statischen Festigkeit über die Betriebsfestigkeit, die Messung bruchmechanischer und viskoelastischer Parameter bis hin zur Formulierung molekularer Schädigungsmechanismen.
Even for the basic measurements of material data for design and engineering of composite structures there is a need to upgrade standards. With a new shear frame test rig more precise values can be obtained.
With advanced methods in the research on the fatigue behaviour of FRP it was found a load level of infinite life for GFRP and CFRP. This is in the range of typical strain values of airliners and rotor blades in normal operation.
Statistically the mean time between damage events on rotor blades is 6 years (Deutscher Windenergie Report 2006). Due to imperfection in the production the shell structures get cracks after a few years fare before the designed life time. A shell test rig was built at BAM for efficient research on the effects of defects in production.
Test blades of ~10m are an efficient way for SHM research and evaluation of NDT-methods and blade geometry.

Due to the fibre-composite nature NDT techniques have to be suitable to a wide length scale to image micro cracking as well as bigger defects. Therefore different techniques have to be applied and developed.
Modern wind turbine rotor blades consist of sandwich shell segments made from glass fiber reinforced polymers. During manufacturing, defects can arise which could lead to failure of the whole component under dynamic mechanical and thermal loads. Hence during operation defects can arise which, if detected, can be repaired locally and in-situ by applying repair patches instead of taking the whole rotor blade down and repair it remotely. This method is much more time and cost effective, since the shut-down time of the energy converter is limited to a minimum. These repair patches can, however, also lead to new defects if not applied optimally. Therefore, it is necessary to control the quality of the repair patches to ensure the best possible restoration of structural integrity of the component. As a rotor blade is an object with a large aspect ratio, X-ray laminography is predestined to provide 3D information of the objective volume. To enhance the amount of information gained from laminographic reconstruction, we use in this study a photon counting and energy discriminating X-ray detector and apply a material decomposition algorithm to the data. By inherently separating the incident spectra within the detection process into two distinct energy bins, the basis material decomposition can provide material resolved images. Choosing glass and epoxy resin as basis materials and numerically solving the inverse dual-energy equation system, the reconstructed laminographic datasets contain highly valuable information about the distribution of the basis materials within the structure. Furthermore, cross- artifacts arising from the limited angle of the projection data can be reduced by this method which allows to investigate structures that were hidden underneath the artefacts.
Localized patches are a cost- and time-effective method for repairing fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sandwich wind turbine rotor blade shells. To increase the understanding of their effect on the fatigue of the blades, this study examines the effect of various layup methods of localized repair patches on the structural integrity of composite sandwich structures. Manufactured with the vacuum-assisted resin infusion (VARI) process, the shell test specimens are produced as a curved structure with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) sandwiching a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) foam core. Patch repairs are then introduced with varying layup techniques, and material properties are examined with cyclic fatigue tests. The transition region between patch and parent material is studied in greater detail with finite element method (FEM) simulations, with a focus on the effect of fiber orientation mismatch. Damage onset, crack development, and eventual failure are monitored with in-situ non-destructive testing methods to develop a robust understanding of the effects of repair concepts on material stiffness and strength.
Due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and excellent fatigue resistance, glass fiber reinforced polymers (GFRP) are used as a construction material in a variety of applications including composite high-pressure gas storage vessels. Thus, an early damage detection of the composite material is of great importance. Material degradation can be determined via measuring the distributed strain profile of the GFRP structures. In this article, swept wavelength interferometry based distributed strain sensing (DSS) was applied for structural health monitoring of internal pressure loaded GFRP tube specimens. Measured strain profiles were compared to theoretical calculation considering Classical Lamination Theory. Reliable strain measurements with millimeter resolution were executed even at elongations of up to 3% in the radial direction caused by high internal pressure load. Material fatigue was localized by damaged-induced strain changes during operation, and detected already at 40% of burst pressure.
Fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) are a well established material in lightweight applications, e.g. in automotive, aerospace or wind energy. The FRP components are subjected to multiaxial mechanical as well as hygrothermal loads. Common operation temperatures are in the range of 213 K and 373 K (-60 °C and 100 °C) at a relative humidity of 10% to 90%. In spacecraft applications, the environmental conditions are even more extreme. However, the correlation between multiaxial mechanical loading and harsh environment conditions have to-date not been investigated in detail. The project aims to investigate the fatigue behavior of FRPs dependent on multiaxial mechanical loading, temperature, and humidity. Extensive experimental testing is performed on flat plate and cylindrical tube specimens, accompanied by numerical and analytical calculations.
Assessing the structural integrity of carbon-fibre sandwich panels in fire: Bench-scale approach
(2019)
The fire resistance of lightweight sandwich panels (SW) with carbon fibre/epoxy skins and a poly(methacryl imide) (PMI) foam core is investigated in compression under direct application of a severe flame (heat flux=200 kW m−2). A bench-scale test procedure was used, with the sample held vertically. The epoxy decomposition temperature was quickly exceeded, with rapid flash-over and progressive core softening and decomposition.
There is a change in failure mode depending on whether the load is greater or less than 50% of the unexposed failure load, or in other words if one or two skins carry the load. At high loads, failure involved both skins with a single clear linear separation across each face. There is an inflection in the failure time relationship in the ∼50% load region, corresponding to the time taken for heat to be transmitted to the rear face, along with a change in the rear skin failure mode from separation to the formation of a plastic hinge. The integrity of the carbon front face, even with the resin burnt out, and the low thermal diffusivity of the core, both play key roles in prolonging rear face integrity, something to be borne in mind for future panel design. Intumescent coatings prolong the period before failure occurs. The ratio of times to failure with and without protection is proposed as a measure of their effectiveness. Apart from insulation properties, their adhesion and stability under severe fire impact play a key role.
