A composite composed of graphite fibers in an epoxy matrix has a cross sectional area of 1.61 cm2, of which 63 percent is graphite fibers. The composite supports a total load of 15 402 kg in the direction of fiber alignment. Calculate the portion of the load in kg supported by the graphite fibers. For graphite fibers, E=400 GPa; For epoxy matrix, E=4.14 GPa.
Orthotropic Material 3. (20 pts) Suppose we have a thin composite material comprised of unidirectional graphite fibers in an epoxy matrix. The ply is loaded in uniaxial tension in the x direction. Plane stress conditions can be assumed. The ply is oriented at an angle 0 from the x axis as shown. Material properties for this material (which may be assumed to be orthotropic) are given in the following figure. T300/934 ET= 9.65 GPa a) (8 pts) Given θ-200, find...
3. A [0/90]s graphite/epoxy laminate is subjected to a tensile normal load of 1N/m in the x- direction (the direction parallel to the fibers in the 0° ply). Assume the thickness of each ply is 5 mm and use properties of unidirectional graphite/epoxy lamina from the table. a) Calculate the resultant strains of the laminate b) Calculate the global stresses in the laminate c) Calculate the principal stresses (stresses in material directions) of the top layer. Typical Mechanical Properties of...

The temperature rise at the tool-chip interface is, of course, also a fiu cocfficient of friction. Flank wear (see Section 8.3 and Fig. 8.20a) isction of source of heat, caused by rubbing of the tool on the machined surface. those of the workpiece. generated in the shear plane is a functioll UI material.
