Micro-Computed Tomography Analysis of Damage in Notched Composite Laminates Under Multi-Axial Fatigue
Yao Qiao, Marco Salviato
The broad application of polymer composites in engineering demands the deep understanding of the main damage mechanisms under realistic loading conditions and the development of pr…
Aerogami: Composite Origami Structures as Active Aerodynamic Control
Mircea Cozmei, Tristan Hasseler, Everett Kinyon +3
This study explores the use of origami composite structures as active aerodynamic control surfaces. Towards this goal, two origami concepts were designed leveraging a combination o…
A Study on the Multi-axial Fatigue Failure Behavior of Notched Composite Laminates
Yao Qiao, Antonio Alessandro Deleo, Marco Salviato
Composite structures must endure a great variety of multi-axial stress states during their lifespan while guaranteeing their structural integrity and functional performance. Unders…
Molecular dynamics simulation for cross-linking processes and material properties of epoxy resins with the first principle calculation combined with global reaction route mapping algorithms
Yutaka Oya, Masahiro Nakazawa, Keiichi Shirasu +13
Herein, epoxy resin is cured by coupling quantum chemical (QC) calculations with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations that enable parameter-free prediction of material characteristi…
Mode I and II Interlaminar Fracture in Laminated Composites: A Size Effect Study
Marco Salviato, Kedar Kirane, Zdeněk P. Bažant +1
This work investigates the mode I and II interlaminar fracturing behavior of laminated composites and the related size effects. Fracture tests on geometrically scaled Double Cantil…
Effect of the Thickness on the Fracturing Behavior of Discontinuous Fiber Composite Structures
Seunghyun Ko, James Davey, Sam Douglass +3
In this study, we investigate experimentally and numerically the mode I intra-laminar fracture and size effect of Discontinuous Fiber Composites (DFCs) as a function of the structu…
Enhancing the Electrical and Thermal Conductivities of Polymer Composites via Curvilinear Fibers: An Analytical Study
Marco Salviato, Sean E. Phenisee
The new generation of manufacturing technologies such as e.g. additive manufacturing and automated fiber placement has enabled the development of material systems with desired func…
