“…[4] As the fibers in the preform cross each other (as shown in Figure 1), the integrity of the composition is good and the drawbacks like low intensity and easy lamination between layers (as in case of laminated composites material) can be avoided. [5][6][7] The preform construction of 3-D braided composite is divided into many types [4] such as 3-D four directions, 3-D five directions, and 3-D full five directions as shown in Figure 2. In 3-D four-directional structures, there is no axial yarn to participate in the braiding process, and in 3-D five-directional structures, there is one axial yarn (in every alternating rows and columns) passing through the pitch to form the preform whereas in 3-D full five-directional structures, there are axial yarns (in all rows and columns) passing through all the pitches.…”

In the present work, a 3-D unit cell model is proposed to predict the elastic behavior of 3-D full five-directional braided composites. The model is analyzed by extended finite element method. An effective medium approximation scheme is used to evaluate the elastic properties of the composite. In the proposed unit cell model, the interface between the fiber and matrix is modeled by PU enrichment. The effects of fiber volume fraction and interior angle of braiding yarn on the elastic properties are analyzed in detail. To further enhance the elastic properties, the braided composite is enforced by randomly distributed carbon nanotubes (CNTs). A new method is proposed to evaluate the effect of CNTs on the effective properties of the composite. The present simulations show that the addition of 3% CNTs increases the effective elastic properties of 3-D braided composite nearly by 100%.

“…It is essentially developed and applied in high and new technology fields represented by the aerospace technology. As the fiber bundles extend along a plurality of spatial directions and cross with each other, the integrity of the composition is good and the drawbacks of low intensity and easy lamination between layers of the laminated composite material are overcame [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Meanwhile, the high specific strength, the high specific stiffness, and the very strong designability of the three-dimensional braided composite material plays an essential role in the weight reducing of aerospace structures.…”

Due to the problems of potential corrosion and thermal expansion differences between traditional metal connecting pieces and carbon fiber poles, it is difficult for them to meet the operating requirements of truss structures in the environment of stratosphere. Based on the large scale composite space truss structure of stratosphere aerostats, the carbon fiber flange connection joints were studied in the present paper. Adopting the three-dimensional full five-directional braiding technology, Toray T700S – 12K carbon fiber is used as the raw material to manufacture flange joint preform, and to manufacture flange forming by RTM(resin transfer molding) process. As demonstrated by tension tests, the composite flange joints have equivalent mechanical properties with flanges manufactured by common aviation aluminum alloy, and meet requirements of stratosphere truss structure connecting pieces.

Abstract:Due to the problems of potential corrosion and thermal expansion differences between traditional metal connecting pieces and carbon fiber poles, it is difficult for them to meet the operating requirements of truss structures in the environment of stratosphere. Based on the large scale composite space truss structure of stratosphere aerostats, the carbon fiber flange connection joints were studied in the present paper. Adopting the three-dimensional full fivedirectional braiding technology, Toray T700S -12K carbon fiber is used as the raw material to manufacture flange joint preform, and to manufacture flange forming by RTM(resin transfer molding) process. As demonstrated by tensile and bending tests, the composite flange joints have better mechanical properties than flanges manufactured by aviation aluminum alloy, and meet requirements of stratosphere truss structure connecting pieces. In conjunction with the results of finite element analysis, mechanical properties can be further enhanced by the improvements of the braiding process, the forming process and the physical dimension.
