Abstract:

The appeal of hybrid composites is the ability to create materials with properties which normally do not coexist such as high specific strength, stiffness, and toughness. One possible application for hybrid composites is as backplate materials in layered armor. Fiber reinforced composites have been used as backplate materials due to their potential to absorb more energy than monolithic materials at similar to lower weights through microfragmentation of the fiber, matrix, and fiber-matrix interface. Composite backplates are traditionally constructed from graphite or glass fiber reinforced epoxy

Abstract:

I compositi a matrice metallica sono materiali aventi elevate potenzialità di applicazione, i cui punti critici riguardano soprattutto le tecnologie di produzione e le lavorazioni alle macchine utensili. Un composito a matrice di titanio rinforzato con lunghe fibre unidirezionali in SiC, il Ti6Al4V-SiCf, è candidato per componenti di turbine aeronautiche soggette a medie temperature (fino a 600°C) per lunghi tempi di esposizione. Per questo ne sono state esaminate sia le reazioni di tipo microchimico, le quali accadono soprattutto nell’interfaccia fibra/matrice, sia le proprietà meccaniche.

Abstract:

A laboratory scale drum winder has been designed and built for the production of pre-preg. Cross-ply hybrid matrix laminates were made from the pre-preg with glass fibres/epoxy resin in the longitudinal plies and glass fibres/epoxy resin-urethane elastomer in the transverse ply. The addition of urethane to the matrix in the transverse plies alone increased the applied strains necessary for the initiation and development of transverse cracking during the extension of cross-ply laminates. This resulted in a smaller reduction in laminate stiffness (due to damage) at a prescribed level of strain.

Hybrid systems with two or more fiber materials were used to combine the benefits of each fiber into a single composite product. Strength and toughness optimization of hybrid thin sheet composites has been studied extensively using combination of different fiber types with low and high modulus of elasticity. Hybrid reinforcement is more significant when the reinforcing structure is in fabric geometry. Fabric structure provides full control on the exact location of each yarn and its orientation in the composite during production, thus maximizes the reinforcing efficiency. A high-strength, high-

Abstract:

Titanium Metal Matrix Composites (TiMMC) have been gaining momentum in the aerospace applications in the past two decades. The advantages of TiMMC include superior stiffness-ta-weight and strength-ta-weight ratios, compared to conventional aerospace steels. The low pressure shaft in the aeroengine is one of the components that could benefit from the superior material properties of TiMMC. Potentially, the use of TiMMC could provide a combination of higher torque density (higher torque for a given diameter) and lower weight for these shafts. However, little has been done to investigate the torsi

Laser melting of aluminium alloy - AlSi10Mg has increasingly been used to create specialised products in aerospace and automotive applications. However, research on utilising laser melting of Aluminium matrix composites in replacing specialised parts have been slow on the uptake. This has been attributed to the complexity of the laser melting process, metal/ceramic feedstock for the process and the reaction of the feedstock material to the laser. Thus an understanding of the process, material microstructure and mechanical properties is important for its adoption as a manufacturing route of Alu
