Fracture Characteristics of Boron Fiber-Reinforced Aluminum 2024 as Detected by Acoustic Emission.
Abstract
F Boron Fiber-Reinforced Aluminum 2024 as Detected by Acoustic Emission.Final technical rept.,FGrenis,Albert F. ;Rudy,Francis J. ;AMMRC-TR-73-57DA-1-T-062105-A-349*Fiber reinforced composites, Boron, Aluminum alloys, Fibers, Composite materials, Fiber reinforcement, Matrix materials, Metals, Fracture(Mechanics), Acoustic emissions, Acoustic waves, Nondestructive testingAluminum alloy 2024, Boron reinforced composites, Aluminum matrix compositesResults of experimental studies using acoustic emission techniques with aluminum 2024 and with boron fiber-reinforced aluminum 2024 are discussed. Since the stress-strain relationship for the composite before fracture was also recorded, it was possible to detect that region (strain) where significant fiber fracture began for a particular composite specimen. Emphasis was on the study of the characteristics of fiber fracture rather than on determining the ultimate strength of the composite. (Author)
