Novel crack stopper concepts for lightweight foam cored sandwich structures - Performance under static and fatigue loads, FE-modelling and potential for use in real structures
Abstract
Three novel crack stopper designs for foam cored composite sandwich structures have been investigated with respect to their ability to deflect and arrest propagating face debond cracks. One of the new crack stoppers was similar to a previously developed design, whereas the two others were modified with layers of glass fibre fabric extending from the peel stopper tip into the face sheet, or into the face sheet/core interface. The novel designs were investigated under mode I dominated crack propagation conditions. Both quasi-static and fatigue loading scenarios were investigated. The mechanisms controlling crack propagation were studied using Thermoelastic Stress analysis (TSA) and Finite Element (FE) analysis. The TSA revealed significant new information about the local stress fields in the vicinity of the crack stopper tip as well as the fracture process zone. The first configuration in most cases was able to deflect debond cracks, albeit not in all cases, whereas it was incapable of achieving crack arrest. The two other designs performed better in that they consistently demonstrated the ability to deflect propagating cracks. Only the second design could arrest the cracks consistently as well. Detailed numerical fracture mechanics analyses confirmed and explained the experimental observations.
