Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of composite additive manufacturing technology, the design optimization of variable stiffness of fiber-reinforced composite laminates has attracted widespread attention from scholars and industry. In these aerospace composite structures, numerous cutout panels and shells serve as access points for maintaining electrical, fuel, and hydraulic systems. The traditional fiber-reinforced composite laminate subtractive drilling manufacturing inevitably faces the problems of interlayer delamination, fiber fracture, and burr of the laminate. Continuous fiber additive manufacturing technology offers the potential for integrated design optimization and manufacturing with high structural performance. Considering the integration of design and manufacturability in continuous fiber additive manufacturing, the paper proposes linear and nonlinear filtering strategies based on the Normal Distribution Fiber Optimization (NDFO) material interpolation scheme to overcome the challenge of discrete fiber optimization results, which are difficult to apply directly to continuous fiber additive manufacturing. With minimizing structural compliance as the objective function, the proposed approach provides a strategy to achieve continuity of discrete fiber paths in the variable stiffness design optimization of composite laminates with regular and irregular holes. In the variable stiffness design optimization model, the number of candidate fiber laying angles in the NDFO material interpolation scheme is considered as design variable. The sensitivity information of structural compliance with respect to the number of candidate fiber laying angles is obtained using the analytical sensitivity analysis method. Based on the proposed variable stiffness design optimization method for complex perforated composite laminates, the numerical examples consider the variable stiffness design optimization of typical non-perforated and perforated composite laminates with circular, square, and irregular holes, and systematically discuss the number of candidate discrete fiber laying angles, discrete fiber continuous filtering strategies, and filter radius on structural compliance, continuity, and manufacturability. The optimized discrete fiber angles of variable stiffness laminates are converted into continuous fiber laying paths using a streamlined process for continuous fiber additive manufacturing. Meanwhile, the optimized non-perforated and perforated MBB beams after discrete fiber continuous treatment, are manufactured using continuous fiber co-extrusion additive manufacturing technology to verify the effectiveness of the variable stiffness fiber optimization framework proposed in this paper.展开更多

The development of geological lamination in shale reservoirs influences fracture propagation during hydraulic stimulation,and the fracture generation mechanism as it propagates through the laminated interface is close...The development of geological lamination in shale reservoirs influences fracture propagation during hydraulic stimulation,and the fracture generation mechanism as it propagates through the laminated interface is closely related to fracturing effects.In this paper,the laminated shale was selected to conduct three-point bending experiments using digital image correlation(DIC)and acoustic emission(AE)techniques,which revealed that the propagation path of cross-layer fractures exhibits dislocation features.The cohesive fracture mechanism of cross-layer fractures is investigated from the viewpoint of the fracture process zone(FPZ),which displays the characteristics of intermittence and dislocation during fracture development.A computational criterion for predicting the dislocation of cross-layer fracture at the interface is proposed,which shows that the maximum dislocation range does not exceed 72%of the FPZ length.Considering the mechanical differences between adjacent layers of laminated shale,the cohesive zone model of cross-layer fracture is discussed,from which the constitutive relationship and fracture energy during FPZ development are characterized,and the discontinuous nature of the constitutive relationship is found.This study improves the understanding of the geometry and cohesive fracture mechanism of the cross-layer fracture and provides valuable insights for field fracturing in shale reservoirs.展开更多

The results show that metallurgical bonding is achieved at the interface after composite rolling. The TEM analysis and tensile tests indicate that the 7B52 ALC plate combines high strength of the hard individual layer and good toughness of the soft individual layer. However, UFD technology and SEM analysis prove that the defects （thick oxide films, acid washed residues, air, oil and coarse particles） existing in the bonding interface are harmful to the bonding strength. To sum up, the composite roiling process is suitable for 7B52 ALC plate, and the content and size of the defects should be controlled strictly. Advanced surface treatment of each individual layer would be beneficial to further improve the bonding quality.展开更多

The composite characterizations were conducted by transmission electron microscope（TEM）, scanning electron microscope（SEM）, peeling tests and tensile tests. It is found that the ultra-fine grained laminated composites with tight bonding interface are prepared by the roll bonding technique. The annealing prompts the atomic diffusion in the interface between dissimilar matrixes, and even causes the formation of intermetallic compounds. The interfacial bonding strength increases to the maximum value owing to the interfacial solution strengthening at 300 °C annealing, but sharply decreases by the damage effect of intermetallic compounds at elevated temperatures. The composites obtain high tensile strength due to the Al crystallization grains and Cu twins at 300 °C. At 350 °C annealing, however, the composites get high elongation by the interfacial interlayer with submicron thickness.展开更多

文摘The remarkable mechanical properties exhibited by laminated structures have generated significant in-terest in the realm of additively manufactured laminated high-entropy alloys(HEAs).Despite this bur-geoning interest,the nexus between process,structure,and properties within laminated HEAs remains largely uncharted.There is a vast space for investigating the effect of the typical heterogeneous interface on the macroscopic mechanical properties.This study focuses on the influence of the characteristic het-erogeneous interface on macroscopic mechanical properties of laminated HEAs,particularly anisotropy.Using the 3D-printed Fe_(50)Mn_(30)Co_(10)Cr_(10)-CoCrNi HEA as a model,we investigate the impact of interface geometry on mechanical characteristics.Tensile tests show that the reduced interface spacing increases yield strength.This laminated HEA displays significant anisotropy in strength and ductility,depending on the loading direction relative to the interface.Electron microscopic observations suggest that finer layer spacing enhances interface and dislocation strengthening,increasing yield strength.Anisotropic behaviors are confirmed to be mediated by interface orientation,explained in terms of deformation compatibility and crack development at the interface.This research offers fundamental insights into the relationship between heterogeneous interfaces and the mechanical properties in laminated HEAs.The knowledge is vital for designing,fabricating,and optimizing laminated HEAs through additive manufacturing,advancing their engineering applications.

文摘This study developed a five-layer Mg alloy laminate(pure Mg/AZ31/AZ91/AZ31/pure Mg)through an innovative synergistic strategy involving Al-element gradient design,extrusion,and short-term annealing.Microstructural characterization revealed hierarchical heterogeneities in grain size,texture intensity,dislocation density,and precipitated phases,accompanied by the formation of annealing twinning in pure Mg layer—a phenomenon rarely documented in Mg alloys.Mechanical tests demonstrated significant strengthening effects in all annealed samples,particularly in the 300℃/30 min annealed sample,which achieved the optimal comprehensive mechanical properties.The enhanced strength originated from the synergistic interaction among element-diffusion-induced solid solution strengthening,nanoscale β-Mg_(17)Al_(12) precipitation,and hetero-deformation-induced(HDI)strengthening.This approach breaks the strength-ductility trade-off induced by traditional annealing processes,offering a new paradigm for designing high-performance Mg alloy laminates.

文摘In Ti-Al laminated composites,cracks nucleate preferentially at the Al_(3)Ti layer,but the inhibitory effect of Al_(3)Ti on crack extension is ignored.Interestingly,by combining experiment and phase-field crystal simulation,we found that the micrometer Al_(3)Ti particles in the diffusion layer play the role of crack deflection and passivation,which is attributed to the lattice distortion induced by Al_(3)Ti consumes the energy of the crack in extension.In addition,it is found that the growth process of Al_(3)Ti is divided into two stages:nucleation stage and growth stage.Compared with the growth stage,the Al_(3)Ti grains in the nucleation stage are finer in the growth layer.Finer grains show better crack deflection and avoid stress concentration.

文摘Al/Cu laminate composite was fabricated based on hot press sintering using Cu sheet and Al powders as raw materials.The effects of sintering parameters on interfacial structure and mechanical properties were investigated.The results revealed that a uniform Al/Cu interface with excellent bonding quality was achieved.The thickness of intermetallic compounds(IMCs)reached 33.88μm after sintering at 620℃for 2 h,whereas it was only 14.88μm when sintered at 600℃for 1 h.AlCu phase was developed through the reaction between Al4Cu9 and Al2Cu with prolonging sintering time,and an amorphous oxide strip formed at AlCu/Al4Cu9 interface.Both the grain morphology and interfacial structure affected the tensile strength of Al/Cu laminate,whereas the mode of tensile fracture strongly relied on the interfacial bonding strength.The highest tensile strength of 151.1 MPa and bonding strength of 93.7 MPa were achieved after sintering at 600℃for 1 h.

文摘Fiber Metal Laminates(FMLs),as high-performance composite materials,demonstrate exceptional potential in a wide range of applications,such as aeronautical and astronautical industries.However,the traditional cured FMLs possess complex interlayer stresses and low forming limits,restricting further promotion and application of FMLs.Low-constraint FMLs exhibit a lower forming resistance and better formability due to no curing during the forming process;however,the formation mechanism and response are not clear.This paper presents the Forming Limit Diagram(FLD)of low-constraint GLARE(glass fiber reinforced aluminum laminates)based on the forming limit test,and compares it with the conventionally cured laminates to evaluate the differences in the forming limit.In addition,combined with the analysis of failure mechanism and micro-deformation mechanism of specimens,the influence of different temperatures(20–80℃)and forming states(width)on the deformation performance of laminates is further explored.The results reveal that the forming limit curve of low-constraint laminates shifts up with the increase of temperature,the forming limit initially increases with the increase of width,then followed by a gradual decrease,and the maximum principal strain of low-constraint laminates is increased by 29% at 80℃ compared to 20℃.The cured laminate has a principal strain range of 0–0.02,while the low-constraint laminates have a principal strain range of 0.03–0.14.Compared with cured laminates,low-constraint laminates possess a higher forming limit due to the improvement in deformable degree between layers by resin flow and fiber slippage,which enhances their formability.This study is expected to serve as a reference for establishing forming limit criteria and optimizing forming schemes for low-constraint laminates.

文摘The Cu/1010 steel bimetal laminated composites(BLCs)were rolled to different thicknesses to investigate the effect of rolling direction and reduction on the microstructure evolution and mechanical properties.The difference of mechanical properties between the Cu and 1010 steel causes different thickness reductions,percentage spread,and cladding ratios.The formation of strong texture induces larger strength of the rolled samples,and as the volume fraction of 1010 steel is larger in Route-A,its strength is consistently greater than that in Route-B.The obstruction of interface to crystal and dislocation slip results in the formation of interface distortion,inducing dislocation density gradient when the rolling reduction is low in Route-A.The slip planes of the Cu and 1010 steel are more prone to suffer the normal strain,while the shear strain of other crystal planes is obviously larger than the normal strain under rolling load near the interface.

文摘Copper matrix composites prepared via traditional methods face mechanical property and electrical conductivity trade-off problems.In this study,TiB_(2)/Cu−Cu heterogeneous laminated composites with submicron lamellar thicknesses were prepared via flake powder metallurgy(FPM)using gas-atomized in situ composite powders as raw material.By thermal mismatch strengthening,and the geometrically necessary dislocations(GNDs)generated by mechanically incompatible deformation between adjacent heterogeneous lamellae and their interaction with statistically stored dislocations(SSDs),the as-prepared TiB_(2)/Cu−Cu submicron laminated composites(SLCs)exhibit significantly enhanced mechanical properties.At the same time,the interaction and propagation of multimode cracks provide extrinsic toughening for SLCs.The pure Cu lamellae with low density grain boundaries and dislocations and no TiB_(2)particles provide a channel with little electron scattering for the rapid transport of carriers,thereby ensuring high electrical conductivity.

文摘The mechanical behaviour of Titanium-based Fiber Metal Laminates(FMLs)reinforced with Kevlar,Jute and the novel woven(Kevlar+Jute)fiber mat were evaluated through tensile,flexural,Charpy impact,and drop-weight tests.The FMLs were fabricated with various stacking configurations(2/1,3/2,4/3,and 5/4)to examine their influence on mechanical properties.Kevlar-reinforced laminates consistently demonstrated superior tensile and flexural strengths,with the highest tensile strength of 772 MPa observed in the 3/2 configuration,attributed to Kevlar's excellent load-bearing capacity.Jute-reinforced laminates exhibited lower performance due to poor bonding and early delamination,while the FMLs reinforced with woven(Kevlar+Jute)fiber mat achieved a balance between mechanical strength and cost-effectiveness by attaining a tensile strength of 718 MPa in the 3/2 configuration.Impact energy absorption results revealed that Kevlar-reinforced FMLs provided the highest energy absorption under Charpy tests,reaching 13.5 J in the 3/2 configuration.The 4/3 configu ration exhibited superior resistance under drop-weight impacts,absorbing 104.7 J of energy.Failure analysis using SEM revealed key mechanisms such as fiber debonding,delamination,and fiber pull-out,with increased severity observed in laminates with a higher number of fiber-epoxy layers,especially in the 5/4 configuration.This study highlights the potential of Kevlar-Jute hybrid fiber-reinforced FMLs for applications requiring high mechanical performance and impact resistance.Future research should explore advanced surface treatments and the environmental durability of these laminates for aerospace and automotive applications.

文摘Longitudinal seismic performance is a critical aspect to be considered during the tunnel design process,in addition to cross-sectional considerations.The present study proposed using a laminated shear energy dissipation(LSED)structure to achieve effective longitudinal seismic design.The proposed structure consists of thin steel plates and alternately bonded layers of rubber,which can be installed around the periphery of the secondary lining.This configuration guarantees that the tunnels will exhibit optimal axial deformation capacity and robust rigid resistance to circumferential compression from the surrounding rock.To evaluate the impact of the LSED structure on the longitudinal seismic performance of the tunnel,a fine numerical model of the LSED structureetunnel liningesurrounding rock system was developed using finite element simulation.The evaluation criteria include maximum principal stress and strain energy.The seismic response of the tunnel with the LSED structure exhibited a notable reduction of over 40%in terms of seismic attenuation rate when subjected to the Trinidad seismic wave compared to the tunnel without the LSED structure.Furthermore,the aseismic mechanism of the proposed LSED structure is discussed,considering both internal factors such as the rubber shear modulus,steel plate dimensions,and number and location of structures,and external influencing factors such as seismic wave parameters and surrounding rock quality.Meanwhile,the effectiveness of the tunnel with the LSED structure has been quantitatively demonstrated in terms of seismic fragility curves.

文摘To improve design accuracy and reliability of structures,this study solves the uncertain natural frequencies with consideration for geometric nonlinearity and structural uncertainty.Frequencies of the laminated plate with all four edges clamped(CCCC)are derived based on Navier's method and Galerkin's method.The novelty of the current work is that the number of unknowns in the displacement field model of a CCCC plate with free midsurface(CCCC-2 plate)is only three compared with four or five in cases of other exposed methods.The present analytical method is proved to be accurate and reliable by comparing linear natural frequencies and nonlinear natural frequencies with other models available in the open literature.Furthermore,a novel method for analyzing effects of mean values and tolerance zones of uncertain structural parameters on random frequencies is proposed based on a self-developed Multiscale Feature Extraction and Fusion Network(MFEFN)system.Compared with a direct Monte Carlo Simulation(MCS),the MFEFNbased procedure significantly reduces the calculation burden with a guarantee of accuracy.Our research provides a method to calculate nonlinear natural frequencies under two boundary conditions and presentes a surrogate model to predict frequencies for accuracy analysis and optimization design.

文摘The development of geological lamination in shale reservoirs influences fracture propagation during hydraulic stimulation,and the fracture generation mechanism as it propagates through the laminated interface is closely related to fracturing effects.In this paper,the laminated shale was selected to conduct three-point bending experiments using digital image correlation(DIC)and acoustic emission(AE)techniques,which revealed that the propagation path of cross-layer fractures exhibits dislocation features.The cohesive fracture mechanism of cross-layer fractures is investigated from the viewpoint of the fracture process zone(FPZ),which displays the characteristics of intermittence and dislocation during fracture development.A computational criterion for predicting the dislocation of cross-layer fracture at the interface is proposed,which shows that the maximum dislocation range does not exceed 72%of the FPZ length.Considering the mechanical differences between adjacent layers of laminated shale,the cohesive zone model of cross-layer fracture is discussed,from which the constitutive relationship and fracture energy during FPZ development are characterized,and the discontinuous nature of the constitutive relationship is found.This study improves the understanding of the geometry and cohesive fracture mechanism of the cross-layer fracture and provides valuable insights for field fracturing in shale reservoirs.

文摘1060/7050 Al/Al laminated metal composites(LMCs)with heterogeneous lamellar structures were prepared by accumulative roll bonding(ARB),cold rolling and subsequent annealing treatment.The strengthening mechanism was investigated by microstructural characterization,mechanical property tests and in-situ fracture morphology observations.The results show that microstructural differences between the constituent layers are present in the Al/Al LMCs after various numbers of ARB cycles.Compared with rolled 2560-layered Al/Al LMCs with 37.5%and 50.0%rolling reductions,those with 62.5%rolling reductions allow for more effective improvements in the mechanical properties after annealing treatment due to their relatively high mechanical incompatibility across the interface.During tensile deformation,with the increased magnitude of incompatibility in the 2560-layered Al/Al LMC with a heterogeneous lamellar structure,the densities of the geometrically necessary dislocations(GNDs)increase to accommodate the relatively large strain gradient,resulting in considerable back stress strengthening and improved mechanical properties.

文摘The bonding interface of 7B52 Al alloy laminated composite （ALC） fabricated by hot rolling was investigated using optical microscopy （OM）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, ultrasonic flaw detection （UFD）, and bonding strength tests. The results show that metallurgical bonding is achieved at the interface after composite rolling. The TEM analysis and tensile tests indicate that the 7B52 ALC plate combines high strength of the hard individual layer and good toughness of the soft individual layer. However, UFD technology and SEM analysis prove that the defects （thick oxide films, acid washed residues, air, oil and coarse particles） existing in the bonding interface are harmful to the bonding strength. To sum up, the composite roiling process is suitable for 7B52 ALC plate, and the content and size of the defects should be controlled strictly. Advanced surface treatment of each individual layer would be beneficial to further improve the bonding quality.

文摘The microstructural development and its effect on the mechanical properties of Al/Cu laminated composite produced by asymmetrical roll bonding and annealing were studied. The composite characterizations were conducted by transmission electron microscope（TEM）, scanning electron microscope（SEM）, peeling tests and tensile tests. It is found that the ultra-fine grained laminated composites with tight bonding interface are prepared by the roll bonding technique. The annealing prompts the atomic diffusion in the interface between dissimilar matrixes, and even causes the formation of intermetallic compounds. The interfacial bonding strength increases to the maximum value owing to the interfacial solution strengthening at 300 °C annealing, but sharply decreases by the damage effect of intermetallic compounds at elevated temperatures. The composites obtain high tensile strength due to the Al crystallization grains and Cu twins at 300 °C. At 350 °C annealing, however, the composites get high elongation by the interfacial interlayer with submicron thickness.
