Study on fine blanking of glass carbon hybrid polymeric composites

Abstract

Fiber Reinforced Polymeric FRP composites find increasing application as structure materials in automobiles and air craft system owing to their light weight high specific strength better dynamic and damping quality besides easier maintenance For structure both tensile and flexure properties are important specification The presence study is concerned with tensile and flexure characteristic of GFRP CFRP and hybrid GCFRP composites The test specimens comprise plain and one with insertion of holes The insertion pertains to both conventional drilled holes and fine blanked holes The defect associated with insertion holes will influence the tensile load capacity and inherent damping energy dissipation influencing the flexure response Despite published literature on strength and flexure characteristic of polymeric composites only limited literature on the performance of composites with insertion is available In this context the presence study contributes to better understanding of the performance of FRP parts with insertion The research work is based on the detailed literature survey on the research output data on the strength properties and related performance of fiber reinforcement polymeric composites Accordingly the present investigation in concerned with the response of hybrid GCFRP composite to different load work environment The material understudy namely GFRP CFRP and GCFRP composites with by directional reinforced were subjected to axial loading in standard UTM for availing the tensile strength properties as influenced by composite specimen with insertion of drilled and fine blanked holes newline
