| 内容記述 | A review of results from on-going research to investigate the effects of low-velocity impact on the compressive strength of graphite-epoxy structures is presented. Extensive tests have been conducted on sandwich beams, laminated plates and stiffened panels. Conditions for failures were investigated by impact tests on statically loaded test specimens. The effects of compression load intensity were such that lightly loaded graphite structures (such as aircraft secondary structure) were insensitive to impact damage. In more heavily loaded structures, (such as wing panels), however, appreciable reductions in compressive strength occurred. The implications of the tests for structural design are discussed by comparing panel masses for designs where ultimate strains have been reduced due to impact considerations with the masses of designs with higher ultimate strains. Finally, preliminary test data is presented to show the possibility of improvements in damage tolerance achievable by using an alternate matrix material. |
