Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 13Analysis of Adhesively Bonded Joints of Laser Surface Treated Composite Primary Components of Aircraft Structures(Elsevier, 2023) Martin, Seçkin; Nuhoğlu, Kaan; Aktaş, Engin; Tanoğlu, Metin; İplikçi, Hande; Barışık, Murat; Yeke, Melisa; Türkdoğan, Ceren; Esenoğlu, Gözde; Dehneliler, SerkanThe performance of the adhesively bonded aerospace structures highly depends on the adhesion strength between the adhesive and adherents, which is affected by, in particular, the condition of the bonding surface. Among the various surface treatment methods, as state of the art, laser surface treatment is a suitable option for the CFRP composite structures to enhance the adhesion performance, adjusting the roughness and surface free energy with relatively minimizing the damage to the fibers. The aim of this study is the validation and evaluation of the adhesive bonding behavior of the laser surface-treated CFRP composite structures, using the finite element technique to perform a conservative prediction of the failure load and damage growth. Such objectives were achieved by executing both experimental and numerical analyses of the secondary bonded CFRP parts using a structural adhesive. In this regard, to complement physical experiments by means of numerical simulation, macro-scale 3D FEA of adhesively bonded Single Lap Joint and Skin-Spar Joint specimens has been developed employing the Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) technique in order to simulate bonding behavior in composite structures especially skin-spar relation in the aircraft wing-box.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 17Effects of Nanosecond Laser Ablation Parameters on Surface Modification of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites(SAGE Publications, 2023) Martin, Seçkin; İplikçi, Hande; Barışık, Murat; Türkdoğan, Ceren; Yeke, Melisa; Nuhoğlu, Kaan; Esenoğlu, Gözde; Tanoğlu, Metin; Aktaş, Engin; Dehneliler, Serkan; İriş, Mehmet ErdemRemoval of contaminants and top polymer layer from the surface of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites is critical for high-quality adhesive-joining with direct bonding to the reinforcing fiber constituents. Surface treatment with a laser beam provides selective removal of the polymer matrix without damaging the fibers and increasing the wettability. However, inhomogeneous thermal properties of CFRP make control of laser ablation difficult as the laser energy absorbed by the carbon fibers is converted into heat and transmitted through the fiber structures during the laser operation. In this study, the effect of scanning speed and laser power on nanosecond laser surface treatment was characterized by scanning electron microscope images and wetting angle measurements. Low scanning speeds allowed laser energy to be conducted as thermal energy through the fibers, which resulted in less epoxy matrix removal and substantial thermal damage. Low laser power partially degraded the epoxy the surface while the high power damaged the carbon fibers. For the studied CFRP specimens consisting of unidirectional [45/0/?45/90]2s stacking of carbon/epoxy prepregs (HexPly®-M91), 100 mJ/mm2 generated by 10 m/s scanning speed and 30 W power appeared as optimum processing parameters for the complete removal of epoxy matrix from the top surface with mostly undamaged carbon fibers and super hydrophilic surface condition. © The Author(s) 2023.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 8Improving Adhesive Behavior of Fiber Reinforced Composites by Incorporating Electrospun Polyamide-6,6 Nanofibers in Joining Region(SAGE Publications, 2022) Esenoğlu, Gözde; Barışık, Murat; Tanoğlu, Metin; Yeke, Melisa; Türkdoğan, Ceren; İplikçi, Hande; Martin, Seçkin; Nuhoğlu, Kaan; Aktaş, Engin; Dehneliler, Serkan; İriş, Mehmet ErdemAdhesive joining of fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite components is demanded in various industrial applications. However, the joining locations frequently suffer from adhesive bond failure between adhesive and adherent. The aim of the present study is improving bonding behavior of adhesive joints by electrospun nanofiber coatings on the prepreg surfaces that have been used for composite manufacturing. Secondary bonding of woven and unidirectional CFRP parts was selected since this configuration is preferred commonly in aerospace practices. The optimum nanofiber coating with a low average fiber diameter and areal weight density is succeed by studying various solution concentrations and spinning durations of the polyamide-6.6 (PA 66) electrospinning. We obtained homogeneous and beadles nanofiber productions. As a result, an average diameter of 36.50 +/- 12 nm electrospun nanofibers were obtained and coated onto the prepreg surfaces. Prepreg systems with/without PA 66 nanofibers were hot pressed to fabricate the CFRP composite laminates. The single-lap shear test coupons were prepared from the fabricated laminates to examine the effects of PA 66 nanofibers on the mechanical properties of the joint region of the composites. The single-lap shear test results showed that the bonding strength is improved by about 40% with minimal adhesive use due to the presence of the electrospun nanofibers within the joint region. The optical and SEM images of fractured surfaces showed that nanofiber-coated joints exhibited a coherent failure while the bare surfaces underwent adhesive failure. The PA66 nanofibers created better coupling between the adhesive and the composite surface by increasing the surface area and roughness. As a result, electrospun nanofibers turned adhesive failure into cohesive and enhanced the adhesion performance composite joints substantially.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Fatigue Life Prediction and Optimization of Gfrp Composites Based on Failure Tensor Polynomial in Fatigue Model With Exponential Fitting Approach(SAGE Publications, 2022) Güneş, Mehmet Deniz; İmamoğlu Karabaş, Neslişah; Deveci, Hamza Arda; Tanoğlu, Gamze; Tanoğlu, MetinIn this study, a new fatigue life prediction and optimization strategy utilizing the Failure Tensor Polynomial in Fatigue (FTPF) model with exponential fitting and numerical bisection method for fiber reinforced polymer composites has been proposed. Within the experimental stage, glass/epoxy composite laminates with (Formula presented.), (Formula presented.), and (Formula presented.) lay-up configurations were fabricated, quasi-static and fatigue mechanical behavior of GFRP composites was characterized to be used in the FTPF model. The prediction capability of the FTPF model was tested based on the experimental data obtained for multidirectional laminates of various composite materials. Fatigue life prediction results of the glass/epoxy laminates were found to be better as compared to those for the linear fitting predictions. The results also indicated that the approach with exponential fitting provides better fatigue life predictions as compared to those obtained by linear fitting, especially for glass/epoxy laminates. Moreover, an optimization study using the proposed methodology for fatigue life advancement of the glass/epoxy laminates was performed by a powerful hybrid algorithm, PSA/GPSA. So, two optimization scenarios including various loading configurations were considered. The optimization results exhibited that the optimized stacking sequences having maximized fatigue life can be obtained in various loading cases. It was also revealed that the tension-compression loading and the loadings involving shear loads are critical for fatigue, and further improvement in fatigue life may be achieved by designing only symmetric lay-ups instead of symmetric-balanced and diversification of fiber angles to be used in the optimization.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Enhancement of Filament Wound Glass Fiber/Epoxy-based Cylindrical Composites by Toughening With Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes(SAGE Publications, 2022) Ay Solak, Zeynep; Kartav, Osman; Tanoğlu, MetinIn this study, the effect of incorporating nano-sized fillers (noncovalently functionalized with ethoxylated alcohol chemical-vapor-deposition-grown SWCNTs) within an epoxy resin on the performance of filament wound glass fiber (GF)-based cylindrical composites (GFCCs) was investigated. For this purpose, SWCNTs were dispersed with the concentration of 0.05 and 0.1 weight percent (wt.%) within an epoxy resin using mechanical stirring and calendaring (3-roll-milling) techniques. The rheological behavior of the SWCNT incorporated epoxy mixture was characterized to determine the suitability of blends for the filament winding process. It was revealed that the viscosity value of the resin was not significantly affected by the addition of SWCNTs in given concentrations. Moreover, contact angle measurements were also performed on the SWCNT/epoxy blends dropped on the GF for the evaluation of the wettability behavior of the GF in the presence of the SWCNTs in relevant concentrations. Eventually, it was observed that the wettability behavior of GF was not reasonably affected by the presence of the SWCNTs. The double cantilever beam (DCB), flexural, and short beam shear (SBS) tests were performed on the reference and SWCNT-modified GFCC specimens to evaluate the effects of the SWCNT presence on the interlaminar fracture toughness and out-of-plane properties of GFCCs. The fractured surfaces after the DCB and SBS tests were analyzed under the scanning electron microscopy to reveal the toughening mechanisms and the filler morphologies. Consequently, although SWCNT incorporation was on the outermost layer of GFCCs, it was found that the interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) values and Mode I interlaminar fracture toughness values of the curved composite samples were improved up to 22 and 216%, respectively, due to the presence of the SWCNTs.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 10Investigation of Hybridization Effect on Ballistic Performance of Multi-Layered Fiber Reinforced Composite Structures(Sage Publications Ltd, 2022) Üstün, Hikmet Sinan; Toksoy, Ahmet Kaan; Tanoğlu, MetinThe aim of this study is enhancing the ballistic performance of multi-layered fiber reinforced composite structures by hybridization approach against fragment simulating projectile (FSP). For manufacturing of homogeneous and hybrid composite structures, 170 g/m2 twill weave aramid and 280 g/m2 plain weave E-Glass fibers were used with epoxy resin systems and two different thickness values for each composite panel were fabricated and tested to obtain a relationship between areal density and V50 parameters. Tensile, 3-point bending, and short beam strength tests of composite panels were performed, and ballistic performance of composite structures were measured by V50 test method with 1.1 g FSP threat. Ballistic performance of hybrid composite structures was compared with high-performance composite ballistic panel test results reported in literature. As a result, it was found that E-Glass fabric layers together with aramid fabrics increased the energy absorbing capability of hybrid composite panels and ballistic performance was enhanced to be similar or higher than ballistic fiber reinforced composites. Hence, hybridization was found to be an effective way to enhance ballistic performance of fiber reinforced composite structures.Article Citation - WoS: 31Citation - Scopus: 32Development and Analysis of Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessels for Hydrogen Storage(SAGE Publications, 2021) Kartav, Osman; Kangal, Serkan; Yücetürk, Kutay; Tanoğlu, Metin; Aktaş, Engin; Artem, Hatice SeçilIn this study, composite overwrapped pressure vessels (COPVs) for high-pressure hydrogen storage were designed, modeled by finite element (FE) method, manufactured by filament winding technique and tested for burst pressure. Aluminum 6061-T6 was selected as a metallic liner material. Epoxy impregnated carbon filaments were overwrapped over the liner with a winding angle of +/- 14 degrees to obtain fully overwrapped composite reinforced vessels with non-identical front and back dome layers. The COPVs were loaded with increasing internal pressure up to the burst pressure level. During loading, deformation of the vessels was measured locally with strain gauges. The mechanical performances of COPVs designed with various number of helical, hoop and doily layers were investigated by both experimental and numerical methods. In numerical method, FE analysis containing a simple progressive damage model available in ANSYS software package for the composite section was performed. The results revealed that the FE model provides a good correlation as compared to experimental strain results for the developed COPVs. The burst pressure test results showed that integration of doily layers to the filament winding process resulted with an improvement of the COPVs performance.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 24Development and Mechanical Behavior of Fml/Aluminium Foam Sandwiches(Springer Verlag, 2013) Baştürk, Suat Bahar; Tanoğlu, MetinIn this study, the Fiber-Metal Laminates (FMLs) containing glass fiber reinforced polypropylene (GFPP) and aluminum (Al) sheet were consolidated with Al foam cores for preparing the sandwich panels. The aim of this article is the comparison of the flexural properties of FML/Al foam sandwich panels bonded with various surface modification approaches (silane treatment and combination of silane treatment with polypropylene (PP) based film addition). The FML/foam sandwich systems were fabricated by laminating the components in a mould at 200 A degrees C under 1.5 MPa pressure. The energy absorbtion capacities and flexural mechanical properties of the prepared sandwich systems were evaluated by mechanical tests. Experiments were performed on samples of varying foam thicknesses (8, 20 and 30 mm). The bonding among the sandwich components were achieved by various surface modification techniques. The Al sheet/Al foam sandwiches were also consolidated by bonding the components with an epoxy adhesive to reveal the effect of GFPP on the flexural performance of the sandwich structures.Article Citation - WoS: 56Citation - Scopus: 63Processing, Characterization and Photocatalytic Properties of Cu Doped Tio2 Thin Films on Glass Substrate by Sol-Gel Technique(Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Çelik, Erdal; Gökçen, Z.; Azem, N. Funda Ak; Tanoğlu, Metin; Emrullahoğlu, O. F.The present paper describes processing, properties and photocatalytic application of Cu doped TiO2 thin films on glass substrate. Cu doped TiO2 coatings were successfully prepared on glass slide substrates using sol-gel method. The obtained solutions exhibit acidic characteristics. The phase structure, thermal, microstructure and surface properties of the coatings were characterized by using XRD, DTA/TG, SEM and AFM. Their adhesion properties and spectroscopic analysis were investigated by a scratch tester and UV-vis spectroscopy. Four different solutions were prepared by changing Cu/Ti ratios. Glass substrates were coated by solutions of Ti-alkoxide, Cu-chloride, glacial acetic acid and isopropanol. The obtained gel films were dried at 300 degrees C for 10 min and subsequently heat-treated at 500 degrees C for 5 min in air. The oxide thin films were annealed at 600 degrees C for 60min in air. TiO2, CuO, Cu4Ti, Ti3O5 and Cu3TiO4 phases were found in the coating. The organic matters were burned at temperatures between 200 and 350 degrees C and TiO2 crystallization was formed at 450 degrees C. The weight loss of the powder during process up to 600 degrees C is approximately 70%. The microstructural observations demonstrated that CuO content was led an improved surface morphology while thickness of the film and surface defects were increased in accordance with number of dipping. According to AFM results, it was found that as the Cu/Ti content increases the surface roughness of the films increases. In addition structural, thermal and microstructural results, it was found that the films of 0.73 ratio have better adhesion strength to the glass substrate among other coatings. The oxide films were found to be active for photocatalytic decomposition of metylene blue.

Glass and carbon filaments were overwrapped on the liner with a winding angle of [+/- 11 degrees/90 degrees(2)](3) to obtain fully overwrapped composite reinforced vessel with non-identical front and back dome endings. The vessels were loaded with increasing internal pressure up to the burst pressure level. The mechanical performances of pressure vessels, (i) fully overwrapped with glass fibers and (ii) with additional two carbon hoop layers on the cylindrical section, were investigated by both experimental and numerical approaches. In numerical approaches, finite element analysis was performed featuring a simple progressive damage model available in ANSYS software package for the composite section. The metal liner was modeled as elastic-plastic material. The results reveal that the finite element model provides a good correlation between experimental and numerical strain results for the vessels, together with the indication of the positive effect on radial deformation of the COPVs due to the composite interlayer hybridization. The constructed model was also able to predict experimental burst pressures within a range of 8%. However, the experimental and finite element analysis results showed that hybridization of hoop layers did not have any significant impact on the burst pressure performance of the vessels. This finding was attributed to the change of load-sharing capacity of composite layers due to the stiffness difference of carbon and glass fibers.
