    Effects of Glass-Fiber Sizings on the Strength and Energy Absorption of the Fiber/Matrix Interphase Under High Loading Rates
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2001) Tanoğlu, Metin; McKnight, Steven H.; Palmese, Giuseppe R.; Gillespie, John W.
    The interphases of various sized E-glass-fiber/epoxy-amine systems were tested at displacement rates in the range 230-2450 μm/s by a new experimental technique (dynamic micro-debonding technique). By this method, the rate-dependent interphase properties, apparent shear strength and absorbed energies due to debonding and frictional sliding, were quantified. The systems include unsized, epoxy-amine compatible, and epoxy-amine incompatible glass fibers. The high displacement rates that induce high-strain-rate interphase loading were obtained by using the rapid expansion capability of piezoelectric actuators (PZT). The results of dynamic micro-debonding experiments showed that the values of interphase strength and specific absorbed energies varied in a manner that is dependent on the sizing and exhibited significant sensitivity to loading rates. The unsized fibers exhibit greater frictional sliding energies that could provide better ballistic resistance, while the compatible sized fibers show higher strength values that improve the structural integrity of the polymeric composites. In addition, significantly higher amounts of energy are absorbed within the frictional sliding regime compared to debonding. By using the experimental data obtained, a case study was performed to reveal the importance of the interphase related micro damage modes on energy absorption (and therefore ballistic performance) of glass/epoxy composite armor.

    Effect of Aluminum Closed-Cell Foam Filling on the Quasi-Static Axial Crush Performance of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyester Composite and Aluminum/Composite Hybrid Tubes
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Güden, Mustafa; Yüksel, Sinan; Taşdemirci, Alper; Tanoğlu, Metin
    The effect of Al closed-cell foam filling on the quasi-static crushing behavior of an E-glass woven fabric polyester composite tube and thin-walled Al/polyester composite hybrid tube was experimentally investigated. For comparison, empty Al, empty composite and empty hybrid tubes were also tested. Empty composite and empty hybrid tubes crushed predominantly in progressive crushing mode, without applying any triggering mechanism. Foam filling was found to be ineffective in increasing the crushing loads of the composite tubes over the sum of the crushing loads of empty composite tube and foam. However, foam filling stabilized the composite progressive crushing mode. In empty hybrid tubes, the deformation mode of the inner Al tube was found to be a more complex form of the diamond mode of deformation of empty Al tube, leading to higher crushing load values than the sum of the crushing load values of empty composite tube and empty metal tube. The foam filling of hybrid tubes however resulted in axial splitting of the outer composite tube due to the resistance imposed by the foam filler to Al tube inward folding and hence it was ineffective in increasing crushing load and SAE values over those of empty hybrid tubes.
