多元组合三维机织复合材料的弯曲力学行为

Flexural behavior of multi-structure three-dimensional woven composites

  • 摘要: 传统三维机织复合材料通常采用单一周期结构,难以兼顾构件不同区域对承载能力与损伤容限的差异化需求。为实现构件内力学性能的区域化调控,本文提出一种多元组合三维机织复合材料结构(简称组合结构)。选取浅交弯联型层-层角联锁结构(结构A)、类斜纹型层-层角联锁结构(结构B)和类缎纹型层-层角联锁结构(结构C)作为基本单元,开展不同组合方案的经向三点弯曲试验,并建立参数化建模方法和亚单胞多尺度仿真模型,研究结构排布、结构占比及过渡方式对弯曲响应和损伤行为的影响。结果表明,跨中区域的结构类型主导了组合结构的初始弯曲刚度和整体响应特征,结构空间排布的影响较结构占比更为突出。对于A/B组合,高刚度结构B布置于跨中可提高整体承载水平,但同时增大A/B过渡区的曲率突变,并诱发纬纱束提前发生横向损伤。对于B/C组合,当结构B占比由51.0%提高至80.4%时,峰值弯曲强度提高约8.2%,但过渡区曲率差由0.0007 mm−1增至0.0021 mm−1,损伤进一步向局部集中。在A/B之间引入结构C后,原A/B直接过渡处约0.0024 mm−1的曲率差被分解为A/C和C/B过渡区两侧约0.0009 mm−1和0.0014 mm−1的两个较小曲率差,表明结构C具有改善不同结构间变形协调的潜力。分段梁理论能够用于多数对称组合结构表观弯曲模量的快速预测。研究揭示了结构空间排布、刚度梯度与过渡位置对组合三维机织复合材料弯曲变形及失效行为的协同影响,可为三维机织复合材料的区域化结构设计提供依据。

     

    Abstract: Conventional three-dimensional woven composites (3DWCs) usually employ a single periodic architecture, which makes it difficult to meet different requirements for load-carrying capacity and damage tolerance within one component. To enable region-specific mechanical design, this study proposes a multi-structure 3D woven composite in which different woven architectures are continuously arranged along the warp direction. A shallow-crossing layer-to-layer angle-interlock architecture (structure A), a twill-like layer-to-layer angle-interlock architecture (structure B), and a satin-like layer-to-layer angle-interlock architecture (structure C) were selected as the basic structural units. Warp-direction three-point bending tests were conducted on different structural configurations. A parametric modeling method and a subcell-based multiscale finite element model were also developed to investigate their flexural response and damage behavior. The results show that the architecture at the midspan mainly controls the initial flexural stiffness and overall response, while the spatial arrangement of different architectures has a stronger effect than their relative proportions. For the A/B combinations, placing the stiffer structure B at the midspan increases the overall load-carrying capacity, but also increases the curvature discontinuity near the A/B transition and promotes premature transverse damage in the weft yarns. For the B/C combinations, increasing the proportion of structure B from 51.0% to 80.4% increases the peak flexural strength by about 8.2%, while the curvature difference across the transition increases from 0.0007 mm−1 to 0.0021 mm−1 and the damage becomes more localized. When structure C is introduced between structures A and B, the curvature difference of approximately 0.0024 mm−1 at the direct A/B transition is redistributed into two smaller differences of approximately 0.0009 mm−1 and 0.0014 mm−1 at the A/C and C/B interfaces, respectively. This indicates that structure C has the potential to improve deformation compatibility between structures A and B. A segmented-beam model can also provide a rapid estimate of the apparent flexural modulus for most symmetric multi-structure configurations. These results clarify the coupled effects of structural arrangement, stiffness gradient, and transition location on the flexural deformation and failure of multi-structure 3DWCs, and provide a basis for region-specific structural design.
