1. Introduction

Experiments reported in this document were performed in the frame of phase I of the main OPTIMAT BLADES testing program. All tests are accounted for WP6 (TG2). In total, 26 tensile static and 17 fatigue tests at R=0.1 were conducted. Tests were performed to determine the shear elastic properties and conclude the fatigue behaviour investigation of the OB UD material. ISO standard specimens, [+45/-45]S, were therefore used. According to the test plan, 25 static tensile coupons were scheduled to define elastic properties and static strength distribution characteristics. From the test results, shear modulus, G12, tensile Young modulus, E1T, major Poisson ratio, ν12, and shear strength, S, were extracted. Constant amplitude fatigue tests of 15 coupons at R=0.1 were also in the test schedule. From the 17 experiments performed, the S-N curve of the [+45/-45]S material was derived.

2. Test Specimens

Standard ISO [+45/-45]S coupons, plate GEV208, were used, see Fig. 1. Plate 208 was made of the Combi1250 material. Coupons were named ‘GEV208-I1000-xxxx’, with ‘GEV208’ denoting the stacking sequence, ‘I’ that it is a standard ISO specimen and ’xxxx’ the specimen number. ‘I10’ is an OPTIMAT BLADES definition of specimen geometry and the last ‘00’ is the cutting angle. All coupons were trimmed with sandpaper in the middle of their gauge length, to smoothen the surfaces for effective strain gauge bonding. LM manufactured all specimens.

Figure 1. The standard ISO [+45/-45]S test specimen (GEV208-I1000) Coupon dimensions, i.e. thickness and width, were measured using a digital caliper (0.01 mm precision), as received from LM and prior to all surface treatments for strain gauge bonding. Three measurements were performed: one in the middle of the specimen and one near each tab. Cross sectional areas were calculated using the average of these three measurements and are listed in Table 1.

3. Equipment and Test Procedure

3.1 Coupon Mounting and Alignment Coupons were aligned in the grips of the test rig using the special metal guides of the wedges. At first, coupon was mounted on the lower grips. Gripping pressure was 10 MPa. Strain gauge readings were then tared and the upper grips were closed. Loading caused due to gripping was minimized, in order to start the test from zero load.

3.2 Static Tensile Tests All static tests except GEV208-I1000-0027 were performed on an MTS 250 kN test rig, on a 25 kN setup. GEV208-I1000-0027 was performed on a 25 kN setup of MAYES DH 100S, 100 kN, equipped with a 407 MTS controller. Strains were measured using HBM 6/350XY11 rosettes (consisting of two perpendicular strain gauges) and HBM 6/350LY11 single gauges, all with a gauge length of 6 mm and a nominal electrical resistance of 350 Ohms. The rosette and the single strain gauge were placed on opposite sides of the specimen. Strain gauge measurements, load and displacement were recorded using an HBM Spider 8 data acquisition device. Tests were performed in displacement control mode, at a crosshead speed of 2 mm/min.

3.3 Fatigue Tests (R=0.1) Fatigue experiments were performed on an MTS 250 kN test rig, on a 25 kN setup. Strains were measured using HBM 6/350LY11 single strain gauges, placed on opposite sides of the specimen. On at least 2 coupons from each stress level, temperature on the coupon surface was monitored using a Pt100 thermo-resistance. Pt100 was attached on the coupon side surface, near the lower tab region, with thermal-conductor glue. During the tests, coupons were cooled using a fan. Ten slow segments were applied before each fatigue test, during which strain gauge measurements, load and displacement were recorded using an HBM Spider 8 data acquisition device. Periodical load and displacement recordings also took place, via the MTS control software.

4. Test Results

4.1 Static Tensile Tests Axial stress, σX, was calculated as the ratio of the applied force, over the measured average cross sectional area of the coupons. Strain was measured using strain gauges. Shear stress, τ12, was derived as σX/2 and shear strain, γ12, as (εX-εY)1. Young modulus EX was determined as the slope of the linear fit of the axial stress vs. axial strain curve, for strain between 500 and 2500 µε, according to EN ISO 527-5:1997 [1]. The same holds for major Poisson ratio, νXY, derived from the transverse strain vs. axial strain curve [1]. Shear modulus, G12, was determined from the slope of the linear fit of the shear stress vs. shear strain curve, for shear strain between 1000 and 5000 µε, in accordance with ISO 14129:1997(E) [2].

Axial strain shown in the figures is the average of the axial strain values measured with the two axial strain gauges mounted on each side of the coupon. EX values were calculated using this average strain. G12 and νXY values were calculated using solely the strain gauge rosette readings. Test results are presented in Table 2, where average values and coefficients of variation (COV) of the sample set are also shown. Photographs of the failed coupons are presented in the Appendix. It is obvious that the failure mode is tensile.

In most cases, the two axial strain gauges were in good agreement during the slow segments performed before each fatigue test. Representative strain vs. time curves, from the slow segments, are presented in Fig. 2. The blue lines are the two strain gauge readings from coupon GEV208-I1000-0043 and the red lines the corresponding measurements from coupon GEV208-I1000-0029. Case GEV208-I1000-0029 is similar to coupons 0031, 0034, 0038 and 0040 whereas GEV208-I1000-0043 is representative of all the others. The stress vs. strain curves from the slow segments of the coupons under consideration are illustrated in Fig. 3. Young modulus was extracted from the circled area, from 500 to 2500 µstrains. The average axial strain was used.

5. Conclusions

No problems were encountered during the characterization of the [+45/-45]S material. All measured mechanical properties were well distributed, with a quite small coefficient of variation. Minimum scatter was observed in the S-N curve. Temperature in fatigue tests was kept well below 35 0C.
