Composite architectures with carbon fiber（CF） designed in 2D layout in conventional composites can alleviate their properties in thickness direction, but all attempts so far developed have achieved restrained success. Here,we have exposed an approach to the high strength composite challenge, without altering the 2D stack design on the basis of concept of fiber reinforced laminated composites that would provide enhanced mechanical and thermal properties along transverse direction. CF sheets allowed the buckling of adjoining plies in 2D MLCP. We fabricated 2D MLCP by stacking the alternative CF and HDPE layers under different loading conditions, which resulted in high strength composites. These plies of CF and HDPE served as unit cells for MLCP, with CF offering much-needed fracture toughness and hardness to these materials.For 2D HDPE/CF MLCP, we demonstrated noteworthy improvement in physical and chemical interaction between CF and HDPE, in-plane fracture strain, flexural strength（30.684 MPa）, bending modulus（7436.254 MPa）, thermal stability（40.94%）, and surface morphology, upon increasing the CF layers up to twenty, enabling these composites truly for high temperature and high strength applications.展开更多

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

文摘Carbon fiber reinforced high density polyethylene multi-layered laminated composite panels（HDPE/CF MLCP） with excellent in-plane properties along transverse direction have been formulated. Composite architectures with carbon fiber（CF） designed in 2D layout in conventional composites can alleviate their properties in thickness direction, but all attempts so far developed have achieved restrained success. Here,we have exposed an approach to the high strength composite challenge, without altering the 2D stack design on the basis of concept of fiber reinforced laminated composites that would provide enhanced mechanical and thermal properties along transverse direction. CF sheets allowed the buckling of adjoining plies in 2D MLCP. We fabricated 2D MLCP by stacking the alternative CF and HDPE layers under different loading conditions, which resulted in high strength composites.

文摘At present,the emerging solid-phase friction-based additive manufacturing technology,including friction rolling additive man-ufacturing(FRAM),can only manufacture simple single-pass components.In this study,multi-layer multi-pass FRAM-deposited alumin-um alloy samples were successfully prepared using a non-shoulder tool head.The material flow behavior and microstructure of the over-lapped zone between adjacent layers and passes during multi-layer multi-pass FRAM deposition were studied using the hybrid 6061 and 5052 aluminum alloys.The results showed that a mechanical interlocking structure was formed between the adjacent layers and the adja-cent passes in the overlapped center area.Repeated friction and rolling of the tool head led to different degrees of lateral flow and plastic deformation of the materials in the overlapped zone,which made the recrystallization degree in the left and right edge zones of the over-lapped zone the highest,followed by the overlapped center zone and the non-overlapped zone.The tensile strength of the overlapped zone exceeded 90%of that of the single-pass deposition sample.It is proved that although there are uneven grooves on the surface of the over-lapping area during multi-layer and multi-pass deposition,they can be filled by the flow of materials during the deposition of the next lay-er,thus ensuring the dense microstructure and excellent mechanical properties of the overlapping area.The multi-layer multi-pass FRAM deposition overcomes the limitation of deposition width and lays the foundation for the future deposition of large-scale high-performance components.

文摘Fiber-reinforced composites are an ideal material for the lightweight design of aerospace structures. 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.

文摘Three types of Al/Al−27%Si laminated composites,each containing 22%Si,were fabricated via hot pressing and hot rolling.The microstructures,mechanical properties and thermo-physical properties of these composites were investigated.The results demonstrated that the three laminated composites exhibited similar microstructural features,characterized by well-bonded interfaces between the Al layer and the Al−27%Si alloy layer.The tensile and flexural strengths of the composites were significantly higher than those of both Al−22%Si and Al−27%Si alloys.These strengths increased gradually with decreasing the layer thickness,reaching peak values of 222.5 and 407.4 MPa,respectively.Crack deflection was observed in the cross-sections of the bending fracture surfaces,which contributed to the enhanced strength and toughness.In terms of thermo-physical properties,the thermal conductivity of the composites was lower than that of Al−22%Si and Al−27%Si alloys.The minimum reductions in thermal conductivity were 6.8%and 0.9%for the T3 laminated composite,respectively.Additionally,the coefficient of thermal expansion of the composites was improved,exhibiting varying temperature-dependent behaviors.

文摘Lightweight,high-strength,and heat-resistant protective structures have consistently been crucial for applications in extreme environments,such as aerospace,semiconductors,and nuclear power industries.Multilayered TC4/TB8 titanium(Ti)laminates,inspired by theheterostructures of natural biological shells,were fabricated using a hybrid diffusion bonding-hot rolling process followed by an aging treatment,resulting in an architected micro structure.The laminate achieves an ultra-high yield stress of 1020 MPa and proper uniform elongation of 4.2%at 500℃.The TB8 layers with high-density nano-precipitates and dislocations act as hard zone,contributing to high strength.The TC4 layers,with their bimodal structure consisting of coarse and fine grains characterized by equiaxed and lamellar structures,experience more plastic strain than the TB8 layers.The hetero deformation associated with the detwinning ofαgrains in the TC4 layer induces toughening at high temperatures.
文摘Plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO)coatings were prepared on Al−Mg laminated macro composites(LMCs)using both unipolar and bipolar waveforms in an appropriate electrolyte for both aluminum and magnesium alloys.The techniques of FESEM/EDS,grazing incident beam X-ray diffraction(GIXRD),and electrochemical methods of potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)were used to characterize the coatings.The results revealed that the coatings produced using the bipolar waveform exhibited lower porosity and higher thickness than those produced using the unipolar one.The corrosion performance of the specimens’cut edge was investigated using EIS after 1,8,and 12 h of immersion in a 3.5 wt.%NaCl solution.It was observed that the coating produced using the bipolar waveform demonstrated the highest corrosion resistance after 12 h of immersion,with an estimated corrosion resistance of 5.64 kΩ·cm^(2),which was approximately 3 times higher than that of the unipolar coating.Notably,no signs of galvanic corrosion were observed in the LMCs,and only minor corrosion attacks were observed on the magnesium layer in some areas.

文摘This study aims to investigate the propagation of harmonic waves in nonlocal magneto-electro-elastic(MEE)laminated composites with interface stress imperfections using an analytical approach.The pseudo-Stroh formulation and nonlocal theory proposed by Eringen were adopted to derive the propagator matrix for each layer.Both the propagator and interface matrices were formulated to determine the recursive fields.Subsequently,the dispersion equation was obtained by imposing traction-free and magneto-electric circuit open boundary conditions on the top and bottom surfaces of the plate.Dispersion curves,mode shapes,and natural frequencies were calculated for sandwich plates composed of BaTiO3 and CoFe2O4.Numerical simulations revealed that both interface stress and the nonlocal effect influenced the tuning of the dispersion curve and mode shape for the given layup.The nonlocal effect caused a significant decrease in the dispersion curves,particularly in the high-frequency regions.Additionally,compared to the nonlocal effect,the interface stress exerted a greater influence on the mode shapes.The generalized analytical framework developed in this study provides an effective tool for both the theoretical analysis and practical design of MEE composite laminates.

文摘A partial-periodic model is proposed for predicting structural properties of composite laminate structures.The partial-periodic model contains periodic boundary conditions in one direction or two directions,and free boundary condition in other directions.In the present study,partial-periodic model for composite laminate beam structures is particularly studied.Three-point bending experiments for laminate beam specimens with different laying parameters are firstly used to verify the present partial-periodic model.In addition,a detailed finite element method(FEM)model is also used to further quantitatively compare with the present partial-periodic model for composite laminate beams with different laying parameters.The results indicate that the proposed partial-periodic model is capable of providing accurate predictions in most cases.The computational time cost of the proposed partial-periodic model is much lower than that of the detailed FEM model as well.Convergence studies are also conducted for the present partial-periodic model with different model sizes and element sizes.It is suggested that the proposed partial-periodic model has the potential to be used as an accurate and time-saving tool for predicting the structural properties of composite laminate beam structures.

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Mg/Al laminate with ZK60Mg and TiB2/6061Al as constitute layers was fabricated through the porthole die co-extrusion and hot rolling.The effects of rolling and roll temperatures on the microstructure,interfacial structure,mechanical properties,and crack propagation paths were studied.The results show that the intermetallic compounds layer shows an intermittent form.The strong strain/dislocation hardening ability of Mg/Al laminate is attributed to the coupled effects of interlocking Al/βinterface,strain gradient,andβlayer with nanotwins and stacking faults.The complex dislocation structures such as network,loop,and array are found in the Al layer.Dislocation slip is the main deformation mode of the Al layer,while dislocation slip and dynamic recrystallization are the main deformation modes of the Mg layer.As roll temperature increases,prismatic〈a〉slip replaces the basal〈a〉slip as the most important slip mode.At a rolling temperature of 400℃ and a roll temperature of 150℃,an optimal synergy of mechanical properties is achieved,with ultimate tensile strength,shear strength,and elongation of 262.1 MPa,36.4 MPa,and 18.1%,respectively.As the rolling temperature increases,the fracture mode of Mg/Al laminate changes from discontinuous plastic shrinkage to transverse and longitudinal cracks.With increasing the roll temperature,the through cracks tend to form,indicating the plasticity and bonding quality of Mg/Al laminate are effectively enhanced.

文摘The huge impact kinetic energy cannot be quickly dissipated by the energy-absorbing structure and transferred to the other vehicle through the car body structure,which will cause structural damage and threaten the lives of the occupants.Therefore,it is necessary to understand the laws of energy conversion,dissipation and transfer during train collisions.This study proposes a multi-layer progressive analysis method of energy flow during train collisions,considering the characteristics of the train.In this method,the train collision system is divided into conversion,dissipation,and transfer layers from the perspective of the train,collision interface,and car body structure to analyze the energy conversion,dissipation and transfer characteristics.Taking the collision process of a rail train as an example,a train collision energy transfer path analysis model was established based on power flow theory.The results show that when the maximum mean acceleration of the vehicle meets the standard requirements,the jerk may exceed the allowable limit of the human body,and there is a risk of injury to the occupants of a secondary collision.The decay rate of the collision energy along the direction of train operation reaches 79%.As the collision progresses,the collision energy gradually converges in the structure with holes,and the structure deforms when the gathered energy is greater than the maximum energy the structure can withstand.The proposed method helps to understand the train collision energy flow law and provides theoretical support for the train crashworthiness design in the future.

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The growing incidence of cyberattacks necessitates a robust and effective Intrusion Detection Systems(IDS)for enhanced network security.While conventional IDSs can be unsuitable for detecting different and emerging attacks,there is a demand for better techniques to improve detection reliability.This study introduces a new method,the Deep Adaptive Multi-Layer Attention Network(DAMLAN),to boost the result of intrusion detection on network data.Due to its multi-scale attention mechanisms and graph features,DAMLAN aims to address both known and unknown intrusions.The real-world NSL-KDD dataset,a popular choice among IDS researchers,is used to assess the proposed model.There are 67,343 normal samples and 58,630 intrusion attacks in the training set,12,833 normal samples,and 9711 intrusion attacks in the test set.Thus,the proposed DAMLAN method is more effective than the standard models due to the consideration of patterns by the attention layers.The experimental performance of the proposed model demonstrates that it achieves 99.26%training accuracy and 90.68%testing accuracy,with precision reaching 98.54%on the training set and 96.64%on the testing set.The recall and F1 scores again support the model with training set values of 99.90%and 99.21%and testing set values of 86.65%and 91.37%.These results provide a strong basis for the claims made regarding the model’s potential to identify intrusion attacks and affirm its relatively strong overall performance,irrespective of type.Future work would employ more attempts to extend the scalability and applicability of DAMLAN for real-time use in intrusion detection systems.

文摘Laminated metal composites(LMCs)have widespread application prospects and are set to become indispensable in addressing modern engineering challenges owing to their capability of leveraging the synergy between different metals and tailoring performance by flexibly regulating the layered configuration.The plastic forming process,as a promising advanced manufacturing technology,has been increasingly adopted for the fabrication of LMC components due to its advantages of high material utilization rate,high production efficiency,and excellent mechanical properties of the product.This review delved into the research progress on the plastic-forming process of LMCs,including rolling,extrusion,spinning,etc.It outlined the forming principles,unique characteristics,bonding mechanisms,and the influence of key process parameters on deformation,microstructure,and property.This review focused on the heterogeneous deformation and interfacial regulation of LMCs,providing insights into the mechanisms of heterogeneous deformation,damage and fracture,and formation mechanisms of intermetallic compounds.It also delineated the experimental characterization and numerical modeling methods to elucidate the heterogeneous deformation behavior,as well as the approaches to evaluating and enhancing the performance of LMCs.Finally,the challenges and prospects of manufacturing high-performance LMCs by plastic forming process are orchestrated.

文摘This research investigates the behavior of sandwich glued laminated bamboo(Glubam)structures with a core formed by biodegradable plastic fibers,specifically polylactic acid(PLA),fabricated using 3D printing technology.The influence of various fiber printing orientations(0°and 45/135°)on tensile and compressive properties was investigated.The experimental results indicated that polylactic acid with calcium carbonate(PLA+)printed unidirectionally and aligned with the loading direction(0°)exhibits superior tensile and compressive strengths compared to specimens printed bidirectionally at 45/135°.Furthermore,the effect of additives on bioplastics of carbon fiber(PLA-CF)and glass fiber(PLA-GF)additives in PLA-based composites was evaluated in comparison with PLA+specimens.The finding indicated that PLA+has a higher strength-to-cost ratio compared to PLA-CF and PLA-GF.Therefore,unidirectionally printed PLA+was selected as the core material in two geometries:honeycomb and honeycomb lattice.These cores were sandwiched between Glubam panels on the top and bottom surfaces of the structures.Flexural performance was evaluated through four-point bending tests,which revealed that sandwich structures with a honeycomb core achieved a flexural strength-to-weight ratio 56.51%higher than those with a honeycomb lattice core.A parametric study using the finite element model was conducted to evaluate the effect of core scale,cross-sectional depth,Glubamthickness,core depth,and the number of honeycomb elements.The results showed that reducing the Glubam thickness while increasing the 3D-printed core depth significantly improved the flexural performance of honeycomb sandwich structures.Notably,reduced Glubam panel thickness coupled with increased core depth enhanced their flexural performance.

文摘In practical engineering construction,multi-layered barriers containing geomembranes are extensively applied to retard the migration of pollutants.However,the associated analytical theory on pollutants diffusion still needs to be further improved.In this work,general analytical solutions are derived for one-dimensional diffusion of degradable organic contaminant(DOC)in the multi-layered media containing geomembranes under a time-varying concentration boundary condition,where the variable substitution and separated variable approaches are employed.These analytical solutions with clear expressions can be used not only to study the diffusion behaviors of DOC in bottom and vertical composite barrier systems,but also to verify other complex numerical models.The proposed general analytical solutions are then fully validated via three comparative analyses,including comparisons with the experimental measurements,an existing analytical solution,and a finite-difference solution.Ultimately,the influences of different factors on the composite cutoff wall’s(CCW,which consists of two soil-bentonite layers and a geomembrane)service performance are investigated through a composite vertical barrier system as the application example.The findings obtained from this investigation can provide scientific guidance for the barrier performance evaluation and the engineering design of CCWs.This application example also exhibits the necessity and effectiveness of the developed analytical solutions.

文摘Heterogeneous laminated structure(HLS)design offers new opportunities to enhance the mechanical performance of high-entropy alloys(HEAs)through synergistic effects from heterogeneity.However,it remains challenging to introduce the HLS into HEAs via severe plastic deformation due to their strong work-hardening capacity.In this study,a specially designed multi-level HLS,characterized by alterna-tively stacked micro-grained soft CoCrFeNi layers and nanostructured ultra-hard Al_(0.3)CoCrFeNi layers con-taining a three-phase microstructure(composed of nanograined face-centered cubic matrix,(Al,Ni)-rich B2 precipitates,and Cr-richσprecipitates),is controllably introduced into FCC HEAs via a conventional thermo-mechanical processing involving hot-pressing,cold-rolling,and annealing.Meanwhile,thermo-mechanical processing induces Al element diffusion across the layer interface,resulting in the formation of an interfacial transition layer and the establishment of a strong interface bonding between the neigh-boring CoCrFeNi and Al_(0.3)CoCrFeNi layers.As a result,the multi-level HLSed CoCrFeNi/Al_(0.3)CoCrFeNi com-posite exhibits a yield strength as high as 1127±25.4 MPa while maintaining a large fracture elongation(up to(26.3±2.4)%).Such an excellent strength-ductility synergy surpasses that of most previously reported high-performance monolithic bulk CoCrFeNi and Al_(0.3)CoCrFeNi HEAs prepared through care-ful chemical composition optimization and/or thermo-mechanical processing.Strong hetero-deformation induced strengthening benefited from the apparent microstructural/microhardness difference and the strong interface bonding between the neighbouring CoCrFeNi and Al03CoCrFeNi layers,together with si-multaneous activation of multiple strain hardening mechanisms containing mechanical twinning,stack-ing faults and precipitation strengthening,is responsible for the excellent strength-ductility combination.This multi-level HLS and its fabrication strategy provide an enlightening way to develop strong and duc-tile HEAs and can also be applied to high-performance designs of other metallic materials.
