“…The single ply buckling was also observed in the advanced hybrid titanium composite laminates (HTCL) [14]. Fatigue behaviors have been investigated for ARALLs [5,11,16], GLAREs [7,17,18], CARALLs [6,19,20] and TiGrs [8,14]. Lin et al [19] also showed that reduction of fatigue crack growth increased with the thickness of the carbon fiber/epoxy layer when CARALL was under tension-tension cyclic loading.…”

“…In order to improve fatigue performance, carbon reinforced (CARALL) [6] and glass reinforced (GLARE) [7] aluminum laminates as well as titanium (TiGr) [8] and magnesium [9,10] hybrid laminates have been introduced one after the other. Fatigue properties, failure modes, crack path, fatigue mechanisms and the corresponding influential factors were studied experimentally and analytically in the previous research.…”

“…In addition, Rommel et al [9] investigated the mechanical properties of FMLs based on a high temperature composite material and showed that the behaviour of these hybrids is strongly related to the mechanical properties of the composite. Analytical studies performed by Miller et al [10] and Johnson et al [11] have shown that the tensile response of FMLs can be predicted from a knowledge of the mechanical properties of their constituent materials.…”

“…In addition, when the graphite fibers are imbedded in a polyimide matrix, TiGr laminates can be used for high-temperature structural applications, such as airframe materials for high-speed civil transport [3]. To use the unique advantages of TiGr materials, it is necessary to develop methodology to predict their deformation and failure in strength limiting applications, particularly for airframe joints in which bolts or rivets are used.…”

“…These materials combine the beneficial properties of fiber-reinforced polymers, such as fatigue and corrosion resistance, with the damage tolerance and conductivity of metal, while retaining the structural weight advantages of traditional composites. Because of their promising potential for airframe components, the mechanical properties of commercially available FMLs, such as aramid-reinforced aluminum (ARALL) and glass-reinforced aluminum (GLARE), have been extensively studied [1][2][3][4][5][6].…”

This paper presents a finite element model used to predict the bearing strength of hybrid titanium composite fibermetal laminates. The model is used to examine the effects of material parameters such as titanium content and edgedistance ratio on specific bearing strength. In addition, a three-dimensional progressive failure user material subroutine is implemented into the commercial finite element code ABAQUS to model stiffness degradation in the graphite-polyimide layers of the hybrid laminate. These results are used to optimize the fiber-metal laminate layup by determining to the ideal tradeoff between joint strength and structural weight.= characteristic element length E 11 = composite modulus along the fiber axis E 22 = composite modulus transverse to the fiber axis f fc = Hashin fiber compression failure initiation f ft = Hashin fiber tension failure initiation f mc = Hashin matrix compression failure initiation f mt = Hashin matrix tension failure initiation G f = fiber fracture energy G m = matrix fracture energy G 12 = shear modulus fiber-matrix direction G 23 = shear modulus for the matrix-matrix direction h = laminate thickness J = material Jacobian P b = bearing load S lt = shear strength for a unidirectional lamina S UD = undamaged material compliance matrix t = pseudotime value at the current finite element analysis increment u i = displacement measured at node (i) 12 = Poisson's ratio for the fiber-matrix direction 23 = Poisson's ratio for the matrix-matrix direction w fc = degradation variable for the fiber compression failure mode w ft = degradation variable for the fiber tension failure mode w mc = degradation variable for the matrix compression failure mode w mt = degradation variable for the matrix tension failure mode X c = compressive strength in the fiber direction for a unidirectional lamina X t = tensile strength in the fiber direction for a unidirectional lamina Y c = compressive strength transverse to the fiber direction for a unidirectional lamina Y t = tensile strength transverse to the fiber direction for a unidirectional lamina t = difference between successive pseudotime increments " = differential strain change between increments " ij = strain state " init ij = tensile strain component at failure " init ij = compressive strain component at failure b = bearing stress ij = stress state ys = yield strength
