Influences of in-plane and out-of-plane fiber waviness on mechanical properties of carbon fiber composite laminate

Abstract: Based on the curing process of carbon fiber/epoxy prepreg with autoclave, two kinds of unidirectional carbon fiber laminates with in-plane and out-of-plane waviness were fabricated by rolling prefabricated out-of-plane waviness and inserting prepreg strip, respectively. Fiber waviness defects in composites were characterized by waviness ratio. The specimens containing fiber waviness were successfully prepared with almost the same fiber content and low porosity. The influences of fiber waviness with different w… Show more

“…The fiber pull-up is similar to the wrinkling (buckling) and has important influence on composites mechanical performance. 2933 When the fiber is deposited on a curved path, it will result in compressive forces and tensile forces applied through the width of the fiber. If tensile forces are too high, fiber will be lifted beyond the mandrel surface on the outside the steered tow.…”

“…All these processes belong to autoclave manufacturing methods, and each of them produces different manufacturing fiber, waviness defects being one of the most relevant [ 4 , 5 , 6 ]. The waviness is produced due to the axial compression of the fibers by the non-uniform pressure distribution between films and has a predominant effect on mechanical properties such as tensile, compressive, flexural and fatigue strength, being one of the most studied defects in the literature [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ].…”

“…Wang et al [24] developed the transverse strip method and the ply-drop method for the outof-plane waviness. Placing a thin rod at the interface between plies was another frequently used method to generate in-plane and out-of-plane fiber waviness [17], [27]- [29]. In order to generate out-of-plane waviness, Hasiao and Daniel [22] and Allison et al [25] stacked plies that were pre-cured on curved mold between plies pre-cured on flat mold, thus, local out-ofplane fiber waviness were obtained between the flat plies.…”

“…Therefore, the influence of fiber waviness and wrinkling on the mechanical properties of the parts should be considered. Many studies were conducted to establish an appropriate manufacturing technique to generate artificial inplane fiber waviness [16]- [23], and out-of-plane fiber waviness [16], [17], [24]- [30] and to measure the degradation ratio of the mechanical properties. Wang et al [24] developed the transverse strip method and the ply-drop method for the outof-plane waviness.…”
