Master Thesis Investigating the Filament Wound Hybrid Cylindrical Structures With Enhanced Thermal Properties by Numerical Analysis(01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2023) Özkan, Mert; Tanoğlu, MetinThe filament winding method is a composite production technique found at the beginning of the 20th century. The technique has been used in different fields since the day it was introduced in literature. Today, with the developments in the continuous fiber structure used in this technique and the development of carbon technology, filament-wound composites are widely used in the automotive, aerospace, and defense industries. In this study, the finite element method was used to model filament-wound composite cylinders. It was wanted to observe the matrix effect of the composite structure numerically and criticize experimentally produced composites. Even though the current studies work on a hybridized composite structure with respect to the fiber, this study tried to find the hybridized matrix effect by numerical analysis. For this purpose, in this study, the finite element program ANSYS was used. In order to make realistic calculations with ANSYS, material data were observed from composite plates. Finite element models created with the obtained data were compared with the experimental results. The analysis results were observed with the help of the first-ply failure theory. In addition, since the pattern representations from the winding poles cannot be displayed in ANSYS, the pattern effect was ignored, and comparison were made with the assumption of a full layer at given angles. As a result of all this study, although there were differences between experimental and finite element methods' models in homogeneity and pattern, methods' comparisons gave consistent and close results.Master Thesis Development and Experimental Characterization of Filament Wound Hybrid Cylindrical Structures With Enhanced Thermal Properties(01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2023) Özarslan, Dora; Tanoğlu, MetinComposite tube components have key roles in many industrial applications, such as pipelines, drive shafts, airplane fuselages, and offshore construction components. Filament winding technology has enabled precise tailoring and manufacturing processes, allowing for a variety of applications to be manufactured with advanced machinery. In this study, the aim was to enhance the thermal properties without any significant change in the mechanical properties. Therefore, the samples were manufactured as carbon fiber composite tubes with different resin layer configurations by utilizing filament winding technology. The fiber orientation was set to a 55° winding angle with a 5/3 pattern to wrap over a 58.8 mm diameter mandrel as a 5-layer stacking. Due to difficulties in manufacturing different stacked groups of phenolin resin layers, only two groups (one with a 5-layer carbon epoxy resin group and one with a 4-layer carbon epoxy resin with 1 outer layer of carbon phenolin resin group) were successfully manufactured and thus tested. For each group, with dimensions of ±62.7 mm outer diameter and ±1.95 mm thickness with an 800 mm length, two composite tubes were manufactured. Before the test procedures, the homogeneity and quality of the groups were analyzed. For the observation of properties, mechanical and thermal tests were conducted: Apparent hoop tensile, radial compression, 3-point bending, Flammability, Thermogravimetric analysis, Differential scanning calorimeter, Thermal conductivity. The tests were proceeded according to their standards. The results and failure behaviors demonstrate that, with the replacement of the outer layer with phenolin resin, no significant improvement or drawback was observed compared to its fully epoxy resin counterpart.
