Acoustic emission approach for identifying fracture mechanisms in composite bonded Joints
A study on varying Substrate's stacking sequence
This study uses the acoustic emission structural health monitoring method to identify fracture mechanisms in composite bonded joints when varying the substrate stacking sequence. Quasi-static mode I loading tests were performed on secondary adhesively bonded multidirectional c ...
Aiming to increase damage tolerance of adhesively bonded joints, this work explores the influence of CFRP layup of the adherends on the crack onset and crack propagation of composite bonded joints under mode I loading. Quasi-static Double Cantilever Beam tests were performed u ...
The feasibility of applying Optical Backscatter Reflectometry as a backface strain monitoring method for bonded joints subjected to mode I fatigue crack propagation was studied. Visual evaluation and Digital Image Correlation methods were applied to track the crack-tip positio ...
The feasibility of acoustic emission structural health monitoring to detect, localise and monitor crack propagation during quasi-static mode I loading of adhesively bonded joints was studied. Unsupervised artificial intelligence pattern recognition methods (Self-Organised maps ...
The relationship between the response of backface strain distributed sensing by Optical Backscatter Reflectometry and the damage in the adhesive was studied using double cantilever beam specimens. Digital Image Correlation and visual inspection provided information about the c ...
