  • Evaluation of impact resistance of the CFRP material for aircraft

抄録

<p>To reduce fuel consumption on airplanes, we need nowadays lighter materials which absolutely need to withstand bird strikes. CFRP (Carbon fiber reinforced plastic) is one of the best materials for this, considering its high strength modulus and low density, but still lacks impact resistance. In this study, we simulated a fragment of aircraft impacting on a fan case in order to develop a CFRP with a better strength and impact resistance than conventional CFRP. For this experiment, we used the gas gun installed in our laboratory, and a rigid rectangle projectile as an impactor. Then, we compared our new lamination structure with conventional CFRP according to the amount of absorbed energy and to the delamination area (internal separation of layers). The amount of energy is obtained by the difference of energy before and after the impact, and the higher the energy absorbed, the more resistant the material is. In the case of the delaminationarea, the smaller it is, the lower the damages are. In new CFRP (called E2-E), the conventional [45, -45] degree layer is changed to a [30, -30] degree layer and a 0 degree layer is added between the 30 and -30 layers. The conventional lamination structure is [(0/45/-45/0)3(45/-45)(0/-45/45/0)3], and the E2-E’s lamination structure is [(0/30/0/-30/0)2(30/0/-30)2]s. As a result, for the same amount of energy the CFRP E2-E was not penetrated unlike conventional CFRP. Moreover, the absorbed enegy was higher and the delamination area was smaller, which means the E2-E materialshowed better performances than coventional CFRP.</p>
