Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of composite sandwich structure detection, in particular to a testing device for composite sandwich structures and a method for testing mode I fracture toughness. Background Art

[0002] Mode I fracture toughness G of composite sandwich structures IC It is one of the indicators used to characterize the interlaminar interface bonding ability of composite sandwich structures and is an important parameter for delamination and propagation analysis of composite sandwich structures. The currently popular method for testing the Mode I fracture toughness of polymer-based composite sandwich structures is the double cantilever beam test (DCB method). However, when using the traditional DCB test method to test polymer-based composite sandwich structures, due to asymmetric loading and the different material properties of the facesheet and core materials, the normal and shear deformations couple during loading, resulting in a bending moment in the core region. The load direction gradually deviates from the normal direction of the face-core structure, generating shear stress in the core material. The resulting Mode II shear fracture energy component is too high. Furthermore, the shear stress at the crack tip is likely to cause the crack to propagate from the face-core interface to the core material, resulting in inaccurate Mode I fracture toughness values ​​for sandwich composite core structures. Therefore, the DCB test is not suitable for testing the Mode I fracture toughness of the face-core interface of composite sandwich structures.

[0003] In summary, there is currently a lack of effective equipment and methods for testing the mode I fracture toughness of composite sandwich structures. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a testing device for composite sandwich structures and a method for testing mode I fracture toughness, so as to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.

[0005] The solution of the present invention to solve its technical problems is:

[0006] A guide rail, wherein the guide rail is provided with a test connection structure;

[0007] A guide slider, wherein the guide slider is slidably connected to the guide rail;

[0008] A sample connection structure, the sample connection structure is used to fix the composite sandwich structure sample, and the sample connection structure and the guide slider are detachably fixed;

[0009] A loading connection structure, the loading connection structure is used to connect a composite sandwich structure specimen and a universal testing machine;

[0010] A crack detection device is used to detect cracks and record the effective length of the cracks.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, during testing, the prefabricated crack end of the composite sandwich structure specimen is adhered to the loading connection structure, and the non-cracked end is fixed to the specimen connection structure. Since the composite sandwich structure specimen is completely fixed to the specimen connection structure, during the process of applying load to the crack end of the composite sandwich structure specimen, the guide slider will move relative to the guide rail, thereby offsetting part of the shear force, ensuring that the relative position of the crack tip and the loading axis of the universal testing machine always remains constant, greatly reducing the shear stress concentration inside the core material, and reducing the tendency of the crack to expand into the core material, so that the proportion of mode I fracture toughness in the obtained results increases, thereby improving the accuracy of the value of mode I fracture toughness of the composite sandwich structure.

[0012] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the loading connection structure is a hinge structure.

[0013] Through the above technical solution, the hinge structure can keep the loading direction perpendicular to the face plate of the composite sandwich structure specimen.

[0014] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the sample connection structure and the guide slider are detachably fixed by screws.

[0015] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the crack detection device is an extensometer.

[0016] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the extensometer is a video extensometer.

[0017] Through the above technical solution, the crack detection device is set as a video extensometer, which can greatly improve the detection accuracy of cracks.

[0018] A method for testing the mode I fracture toughness of a composite sandwich structure is applicable to a composite sandwich structure testing device as described above, comprising the following steps:

[0019] A composite sandwich structure specimen is prepared, and a crack is prefabricated at the interface between the core material and the face sheet at one end of the composite sandwich structure specimen;

[0020] Installing the composite sandwich structure specimen on a testing device, and installing the composite sandwich structure testing device on a universal testing machine;

[0021] Adjust the crack detection device to ensure that the detection range of the crack detection device is within the effective range of the composite sandwich structure specimen;

[0022] Initial loading: the chuck of the universal testing machine loads the sample at a first loading rate. When the initial cracking layer grows to a first set value, the universal testing machine is unloaded until the displacement reading is zero;

[0023] Secondary loading: The chuck of the universal testing machine loads the sample at a second loading rate. When the effective crack length expands to a second set value, the universal testing machine is unloaded until the displacement reading is zero. The universal testing machine automatically records the load value P, the displacement value δ, and the extension value a of each effective crack on the composite sandwich structure specimen.

[0024] After the test is completed, the chuck of the universal testing machine is loosened, and the sample is removed or replaced to continue the test. The computer calculates the G of the composite sandwich structure sample. IC value, export the test results, and make load-displacement curve and R curve.

[0025] Through the above technical solution, the composite sandwich structure specimen is fixed to the specimen connection structure. When a load is applied to one side of the crack of the composite sandwich structure specimen, the guide slider will move relative to the guide rail, thereby offsetting part of the shear force, ensuring that the relative position of the crack tip and the loading axis of the testing machine always remains constant, reducing the tendency of the crack to expand into the core material.

[0026] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the step of installing the composite sandwich structure specimen on the testing device includes the following steps:

[0027] Fixing the composite sandwich structure specimen to the specimen connection structure;

[0028] The specimen connection structure is fixedly mounted on the guide slider;

[0029] The loading connection structure is arranged between the prefabricated crack end of the composite sandwich structure specimen and the chuck of the universal testing machine, so that the chuck of the universal testing machine drives the prefabricated crack end of the composite sandwich structure specimen to move through the loading connection structure, so that the loading direction of the prefabricated crack end of the composite sandwich structure specimen is always perpendicular to the panel;

[0030] Fix the guide rail to the universal testing machine.

[0031] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the step of preparing the composite sandwich structure specimen further includes the following steps: spraying white paint evenly on the side surface of the composite sandwich structure specimen along the crack propagation surface.

[0032] The above technical solution can facilitate the projection of the electronic probe of the CCD video extensometer.

[0033] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, in the step of preparing the composite sandwich structure specimen, the dimensions of the prepared composite sandwich structure specimen are as follows: 260 mm in length, 30.67 mm in width, and 13.22 mm in thickness; the length a0 of the prefabricated crack at the interface between the core material and the panel at one end of the composite sandwich structure specimen is 60 mm, and only one prefabricated crack is made on each composite sandwich structure specimen.

[0034] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the first loading rate and the second loading rate are both 1-5 mm / min, the first set value is 3-5 mm, and the second set value is not less than 30 mm.

[0035] The beneficial effect of the present invention is to improve the accuracy of the value of the mode I fracture toughness of the composite sandwich structure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0045] The following will clearly and completely describe the concept, specific structure and technical effects of the present invention in combination with the embodiments and drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, characteristics and effects of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, all the connection / connection relationships mentioned in the text do not refer to the direct connection of components, but refer to the fact that a better connection structure can be formed by adding or reducing connection accessories according to the specific implementation situation. The various technical features in the invention can be combined interactively without conflicting with each other.

[0046] Conventional polymer composite sandwich structures can obtain accurate mode I fracture toughness G according to the double cantilever beam test in ASTM D5528 standard. IC . However, when using the traditional DCB method to test the polymer-based composite sandwich structure of the sandwich structure, due to the asymmetric loading load and the different material properties of the face plate 802 and the core material 801, the normal deformation and shear deformation are coupled during the loading process, resulting in a bending moment in the core area. The load direction will gradually deviate from the normal direction of the face-core structure, and shear stress will be generated in the core material 801. As a result, the component of the type II shear fracture energy accounts for too high a proportion. At the same time, the shear stress at the crack tip is likely to cause the crack to extend from the face-core to the inside of the core material 801. In addition, the traditional DCB method uses a manual visual point-taking method to read the crack length, which is inefficient and produces large errors in readings. The above problems result in the final obtained type I fracture toughness G of the sandwich structure composite material sandwich structure. IC The value is inaccurate.

[0047] In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a set of testing equipment and method for mode I fracture toughness of the face-core interface of composite sandwich structures.

[0048] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The composite sandwich structure testing device includes: a loading connection structure 100, a composite sandwich structure specimen 800 connection structure 200, a slide rail assembly 900 (the slide rail assembly 900 includes a guide slider 300 and a guide rail 400), a test connection structure, a crack detection device 700 and other components.

[0049] Specifically, the test connection structure is fixedly mounted at the lower end of the guide rail 400 and includes a fixture base 500 and a locking ring 600. The fixture base 500 is used to connect to the sleeve base of the universal testing machine. The fixture base 500 and the sleeve base of the universal testing machine are locked together using a latch and a locking ring 600 to prevent the guide rail 400 and other components of the testing device from shaking. Specifically, in this embodiment, the guide rail 400 and fixture base 500 are connected using screws.

[0050] The guide slider 300 is installed on the guide rail 400 , and the guide slider 300 can slide relative to the guide rail 400 along the extension direction of the guide rail 400 .

[0051] The basic dynamic rated load of the guide slider 300 and the guide rail 400 should be greater than the maximum breaking load of the test material itself.

[0052] The connecting structure 200 of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 is a sheet-like component that is detachably connected to the guide slider 300 via screws. By configuring the connecting structure 200 of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 as a detachable structure connected to the guide slider 300, the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 can be quickly installed on or removed from the guide slider 300, thereby enabling rapid installation and removal of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800, and further enabling rapid replacement of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800, thereby facilitating rapid testing.

[0053] Specifically, the loading connection structure 100 is configured as a hinge structure, which is a hinge-like structure. One end of the hinge structure is adhesively connected to the end face of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 to achieve fixation of the hinge structure and the end face of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800.

[0054] Specifically, crack detection device 700 is configured as a CCD video extensometer. It is mounted on a separate tripod next to the universal testing machine, with its detection end facing toward composite sandwich specimen 800. Software-based crack detection device 700 projects an electronic probe onto the side of composite sandwich specimen 800, automatically detecting the effective crack propagation length, improving testing efficiency and reducing errors.

[0055] During testing, the pre-cracked end of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 is attached to the loading connection structure 100, while the uncracked end is fixed to the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 connection structure 200. Since the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 is completely fixed to the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 connection structure 200, when the load is applied to the cracked end of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800, the guide slider 300 will move relative to the guide rail 400, thereby offsetting some of the shear force. This can ensure that the relative position of the crack tip and the loading axis of the universal testing machine remains constant, significantly reducing the shear stress concentration within the core material 801 and the tendency of the crack to extend into the core material 801. The obtained results show an increase in the proportion of Mode I fracture toughness, reaching as high as 95%. After the test, the Mode I fracture toughness of the composite sandwich structure face-core interface can be calculated using the calculation formula in the ASTM D5528 standard.

[0056] Reference Figure 3 The test method for mode I fracture toughness of composite sandwich structures includes the following steps:

[0057] S100: preparing a composite sandwich structure specimen 800, and prefabricating a crack 810 at an interface between a core material 801 and a face plate 802 at one end of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800;

[0058] S200: Installing the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 on a testing device, and installing the composite sandwich structure testing device on a universal testing machine;

[0059] S300: Adjusting the crack detection device 700 to ensure that the detection range of the crack detection device 700 is within the effective range of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800;

[0060] S400: Initial loading: The chuck of the universal testing machine loads the sample at a first loading rate. When the initial cracking layer grows to a first set value, the universal testing machine is unloaded until the displacement reading is zero;

[0061] S500: Secondary loading: The chuck of the universal testing machine loads the sample at a second loading rate. When the effective crack length expands to a second set value, the universal testing machine is unloaded until the displacement reading reaches zero. The universal testing machine automatically records the load value P and the displacement value δ. The crack detection device 700 automatically records the extension value a of each effective crack on the composite sandwich structure specimen 800.

[0062] S600: The test is finished, the chuck of the universal testing machine is loosened, and the sample is removed or replaced to continue the test. The computer calculates the G of the composite sandwich structure sample 800 IC value, export the test results, and make load-displacement curve and R curve.

[0063] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 In step S200, the following steps are included:

[0064] S210: fixing the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 to the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 connection structure 200;

[0065] S220: The composite sandwich structure sample 800 is fixedly mounted on the connecting structure 200 on the guide slider 300;

[0066] S230: Disposing the loading connection structure 100 between the pre-cracked end of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 and the chuck of the universal testing machine, so that the chuck of the universal testing machine drives the pre-cracked end of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 to move via the loading connection structure 100, so that the loading direction of the pre-cracked end of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 is always perpendicular to the panel 802;

[0067] S240: Fix the guide rail 400 to the universal testing machine.

[0068] Specifically, the detailed steps of the test method for mode I fracture toughness of composite sandwich structures are as follows:

[0069] A composite sandwich structure specimen 800 was prepared according to the dimensions recommended in the ASTM D5528 standard. A crack 810 was prefabricated at the interface between the core material 801 and the face sheet 802 at one end of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800. The length a0 of the prefabricated crack 810 was 60 mm. Only one prefabricated crack 810 was made on each composite sandwich structure specimen 800. The average width B of each composite sandwich structure specimen 800 was measured and recorded. White water-based paint was evenly sprayed on the side of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 along the crack propagation surface to facilitate projection of the electronic probe by the crack detection device 700.

[0070] A loading connection structure 100 is pasted on the upper end of the prefabricated crack end of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800, and the entire lower end is pasted on the connection structure 200 of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800. The connection structure 200 of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 is fixed to the guide slider 300 by a cross screw. The guide slider 300 is moved so that the chuck of the universal testing machine clamps the loading connection structure 100, and the loading direction is perpendicular to the panel 802 of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800.

[0071] Install the fixture base 500 to the sleeve base of the universal testing machine, insert the latch, and tighten the locking ring 600 to fix the fixture base 500 and the sleeve base of the universal testing machine relative to each other to ensure that the entire fixture does not shake;

[0072] Adjust the position of the crack detection device 700 to ensure that the projected electronic probe is on the crack propagation path and that the electronic probe is within the effective range of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800, and set the probe sensitivity;

[0073] Initial loading: Set the universal testing machine in displacement control mode, with the chuck loading the sample at a constant rate of 1-5 mm / min. When the initial delamination crack grows to between 3 and 5 mm, the universal testing machine stops loading and unloads at a rate greater than 25 mm / min until the displacement reading reaches zero. The purpose of this step is to eliminate the resin-rich area at the tip of the prefabricated crack 810.

[0074] Secondary loading: Set the universal testing machine to displacement control mode, with the chuck loading the sample at a constant rate of 1-5 mm / min. When the effective crack length extends to at least 30 mm, the universal testing machine stops loading and unloads at a rate greater than 25 mm / min until the displacement reading reaches zero. The universal testing machine's computer automatically records the chuck load value P, the displacement value δ, and the extension value a of each effective crack on the composite sandwich structure specimen 800.

[0075] After the test is finished, release the chuck of the universal testing machine, remove or replace the sample and continue the test. IC The calculation formula for calculating the G of composite sandwich structure specimen 800 is IC value, export the test results, and make load-displacement curve and R curve.

[0076] The present invention has the following advantages:

[0077] The traditional DCB method uses manual visual point selection, which is inefficient and produces large errors in readings. The present invention fixes the CCD video extensometer on a tripod and projects an electronic probe onto the side of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 through software, which can automatically read the effective crack extension length and automatically calculate G IC , reducing human errors.

[0078] At the same time, the connecting structure 200 of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 and the guide slider 300, the guide rail 400 and the fixture base 500 are all connected by screws. The guide slider 300, the guide rail 400 and the connecting structure 200 of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 can be quickly replaced according to actual conditions to adapt to composite sandwich structure specimens 800 of various sizes, thereby improving test efficiency.

[0079] The device and method of the present invention can effectively prevent the test angle of the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 from changing during the test process.

[0080] Due to the asymmetric loading and the different material properties of face sheet 802 and core material 801, the conventional DCB method couples normal and shear deformations during loading, causing the test angle of composite sandwich structure specimen 800 to change and the load direction to gradually deviate from the normal direction of the face-to-core structure, causing the crack to extend into the interior of core material 801 and resulting in inaccurate results. In the present invention, because composite sandwich structure specimen 800 is fixed to the composite sandwich structure specimen 800 connection structure, when a load is applied to one side of the crack in composite sandwich structure specimen 800, guide slider 300 moves relative to guide rail 400, thereby offsetting some of the shear force. This ensures that the relative position of the crack tip and the loading axis of the testing machine remains constant, reducing the tendency of the crack to extend into the interior of core material 801.

[0081] The device and method of the present invention can significantly increase the proportion of mode I fracture toughness in the results.

[0082] In the traditional DCB method, the bi-material interface of the face-core contact will lead to the coupling of normal deformation and shear deformation, and shear stress will be generated in the core material 801. As a result, the component of the mode II shear fracture energy is too high. At the same time, the shear stress at the crack tip is likely to cause the crack to extend from the face-core to the inside of the core material 801. The mode I fracture toughness G of the sandwich structure composite material sandwich structure is obtained. IC The slide rail assembly in the present invention moves, offsetting some of the shear force, significantly reducing the shear stress concentration within the core material 801 and the tendency of cracks to propagate into the core material 801. The obtained results show an increase in the proportion of mode I fracture toughness, reaching as high as 95%.

[0083] The above specifically describes the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the invention is not limited to the embodiments.

These equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
