Composite drilling characterization and performance evaluation

Xiao, Jian; Pham, Dinh Chi; Lua, Jim Y.; Saathoff, Caleb; Seneviratne, Waruna P. (DEStech Publications, 2019-09)

Hole drilling is one of the most widely used operations in order to place bolts or rivets. Drilling holes in composites leads to drilling-induced defects and damages such as delamination, burr, microcracking, swelling, ...
Experimental and numerical failure analyses of composite cruciform under biaxial static and cyclic loading

Pham, Dinh Chi; Xiao, Jian; Lua, Jim Y.; Perera, Shenal; Saathoff, Caleb (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA, 2021-01)

The characterization and prediction of multiaxial fatigue of composite structures have become a very important topic since aircraft composite structures and their repaired bonded structures are unavoidably subjected to ...
High-fidelity response prediction and failure evaluation of tapered composite components under multiaxial loading

Xiao, Jian; Liu, Phillip; Pham, Dinh Chi; Cui, Xiaodong; Lua, Jim Y.; Perera, Shenal; Saathoff, Caleb (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA, 2021-01)

This paper presents an accurate and efficient modeling approach for high-fidelity 3D stress prediction and failure initiation and propagation modeling of tapered composite flexbeams with multiple ply drops subjected to ...
