Fibre metal laminates, hybrid composite materials built up from interlaced layers of thin metals and fibre reinforced adhesives, are future-proof materials used in the production of passenger aircraft, yachts, sailplanes, racing cars, and sports equipment. The most commercially available fibre–metal laminates are carbon reinforced aluminium laminates, aramid reinforced aluminium laminates, and glass reinforced aluminium laminates. This review emphasises the developing technologies for forming hybrid metal–polymer composites (HMPC). New advances and future possibilities in the forming technology for this group of materials is discussed. A brief classification of the currently available types of FMLs and details of their methods of fabrication are also presented. Particular emphasis was placed on the methods of shaping FMLs using plastic working techniques, i.e., incremental sheet forming, shot peening forming, press brake bending, electro-magnetic forming, hydroforming, and stamping. Current progress and the future directions of research on HMPCs are summarised and presented.

“…A hybrid composite laminate which consists of metal layers and fibre reinforced composite layers is called as Fibre Metal Laminate (FML). In 1978 Delft University of Technology has introduced first configuration of this group known as ARALL [1,2]. In these thin high strength Aluminium alloy sheets and uni/bi-directional Aramid fibre laminas are alternately bonded together.…”

Fibre Metal Laminates (FMLs) are laminates consisting of metal layers and fibre reinforced composite layers. These laminates are designed to improve some specific properties of constituent metals and composites layers. Estimation of First Ply Failure (FPF) Loads of these FMLs is a part in the broad characterization of these materials. A numerical method is developed for the estimation of FPF when these laminates are used as simply supported plates subjected to uniformly distributed load. Various failure criterions are used to identify these loads. The proposed method has been validated with the results of exact (Navier) solution available in the literature. FPFs are estimated for different groups of FMLs based on Aluminum, Titanium and Magnesium layers. The results are presented in the form of non-dimensional FPF and deformation values for various aspect ratios.

“…This inconvenience has been addressed by using thermoplastic composites, which can be adhered to the metal layers in a simple manufacturing step [ 4 , 5 ]. Additional advantages related to the use of thermoplastic based FMLs include the possibility of post-forming and repairing damaged parts in a short period of time [ 6 , 7 ]. In a study conducted by Reyes and Kang, it was shown that the self reinforced polypropylene based FMLs exhibited a tensile strength of 265 MPa, while the glass fiber reinforced polypropylene based FMLs exhibited a tensile strength of 254 MPa [ 8 ].…”

The production and mechanical properties of fiber metal laminates (FMLs) based on 3D printed composites have been investigated in this study. FMLs are structures constituting an alternating arrangement of metal and composite materials that are used in the aerospace sector due to their unique mechanical performance. 3D printing technology in FMLs could allow the production of structures with customized configuration and performance. A series of continuous carbon fiber reinforced composites were printed on a Markforged system and placed between layers of aluminum alloy to manufacture a novel breed of FMLs in this study. These laminates were subjected to tensile, low velocity and high velocity impact tests. The results show that the tensile strength of the FMLs falls between the strength of their constituent materials, while the low and high velocity impact performance of the FMLs is superior to those observed for the plain aluminum and the composite material. This mechanism is related to the energy absorption process displayed by the plastic deformation, and interfacial delamination within the laminates. The present work expects to provide an initial research platform for considering 3D printing in the manufacturing process of hybrid laminates.
