| 摘要： | Dynamic crush tests were conducted on triaxially braided composite tubes and C- channel structural elements to measure their relative energy absorbing characteristics. The elements were manufactured from triaxially braided [0/+60/-60] T700 fiber preforms with two different resin systems, a PR520 thermoset resin and a LM-PAEK thermoplastic resin. T700S/PR520 composite tubes and C-channel elements were manufactured using a resin infusion process. T700GC/LMPAEK composite tubes were manufactured by braiding slit tape prepreg onto cylindrical mandrels. Consolidation pressure was applied through thermally activated shrink tape in an oven. The energy absorbing characteristics of the composite elements were measured using a pneumatically actuated sled with a flat-faced impacting mass, which provided several independent measurements of force, displacement, and energy absorption. The parameter primarily used for comparison between the systems was the specific energy absorption (SEA), a measure of energy absorbed per unit crushed mass. The T700GC/LMPAEK tubes performed slightly better than T700S/PR520 tubes, with an approximately 8% higher SEA. T700S/PR520 tubes had over 20% higher SEA than C- channels made from the same material. Additional tests were conducted on tubes using a tapered-conical impactor to force the tubes to fail in circumferential tension. This type of impact significantly reduced the energy absorption. |
