“…In addition to the above two forms of failure defects, debonding is one of the most typical failure mechanisms for layered composites. Debonding occurs mostly between the metal and fiber layers [116]. As the damage degree intensifies and the fiber deforms along its length, the fiber will gradually be pulled out [117].…”

Fiber metal laminate (FML) is a kind of lightweight material with excellent mechanical properties combining advantages of metal laminates and fiber reinforced composites. It has been widely used in the aerospace and transportation fields and is especially used as structural material such as aircraft skins, wings, and tails. However, under complex service conditions, interlaminar failure in FMLs greatly reduced mechanical properties of the material, even leading to serious economic and safety disasters. The failure and destruction of important structural parts of aircraft and other manned transportation vehicles are extremely unsafe for people. Therefore, it is of great significance to summarize the interlaminar failure behavior of FMLs and find ways to avoid these defects. This review paper is a collection of various researches done by many groups, which systematically discuss the interlaminar failure behaviors and their control methods of FMLs. The application status of several common FMLs in aircraft structures was given. The common interlaminar failure modes of FMLs and the testing and evaluation methods of interlaminar properties were stated. The failure mechanisms and the corresponding control methods were analyzed. Finally, the future developments of FMLs were also discussed by the authors. Through this review article, readers can obtain new research progress about the control method, the mechanism and future development on the failure behavior of FMLs in a more efficient way.

“…This allows the fiber bridging mechanism and mechanical properties of GLAREs to be improved, and moreover, the crack propagation rate at the aluminum-composite interface can be effectively reduced [48,49]. Previous research works reported that the surface treatment should be carefully taken into consideration when improving interlaminar shear strength at the aluminum-composite interface [6,50], environmental durability and low-velocity impact resistance of GLARE. Therefore, the proper production steps should be clearly defined before any production process is implemented.…”

Fiber metal laminate (FML) is a hybrid material system that consists of thin metal sheets bonded into a laminate with intermediate thin fiber reinforced composite layers. The aerospace industry has recently increased their use of FMLs due to the considerable weight reduction and consequent benefits for critical load-carrying locations in commercial aircraft, such as upper fuselage skin panels. All FML materials and their processes should be qualified through enough tests and fabrication trials to demonstrate reproducible and reliable design criteria. In particular, proper surface treatment technologies are prerequisite for achieving long-term service capability through the adhesive bonding process. This chapter introduces a brief overview of design concept, material properties and process control methodologies to provide detailed background information with engineering practices and to help ensure stringent quality controls and substantiation of structure integrity. The guidelines and information found in this chapter are meant to be a documentation of current knowledge and an application of sound engineering principles to the FML part development for aerospace usage.

“…Gonzalez studied tensile behavior of low ductile aluminium reinforced FML's and reported that an increase in the metal composition may results in higher strain to failure [10]. Aghamohammad et al, studied surface morphologies of various fractured fiber metal laminates by using profilometry, SEM and optical microscopy, they reported that FPL-Etching and anodizing treatments remarkably improves the flexural properties of FML's [11].…”

Composites with different configuration of fiber (E-Glass) and metal (Aluminium) laminates were fabricated and tested for grasping optimum hybrid structure. GLARE (Glass laminate aluminium reinforced epoxy) is a unique composite recently being used by wide engineering domains like defense body and vehicle armors, aerospace, marine and structural applications. The GLARE hybrid composites are manufactured by adding very thin layer of aluminium sheets (surface treated) on the surface of unidirectional E-Glass fiber fabrics in presence of epoxy polymer. Firstly three hybrid GLARE laminates were fabricated with different volume fractions. Consequently, impact and flexural behaviors are measured by izod, charpy impact and flexural tests for all volume configurations. Impact resistance of such hybrid laminate is intensively great. The results depicts that the linear metal volume fraction (MVF) increment on fiber metal laminates greatly increases impact energy absorption capacity of composites and little difference in flexural modulus. Finally the fractured surfaces were analyzed by optical microscope.
