Due to high specific strength and modulus requirements, demand for the use of polymer-based composites in structural applications has been increasing more than ever. On the other hand, their interlaminar properties are known to be relatively weak. Such structures are prone to interlaminar failures including delaminations under static or impact loads. Interlaminar tensile strength (ILTS) is one of the interlaminar properties which gives an indication of delamination onset in through the thickness loading for composite structures, while fracture toughness is another property which gives information about the propagation of delamination. Conventionally ILTS value which is experimentally obtained specifically for 0 degrees//0 degrees interface according to ASTM International D 6415/D 6415 M (2013) is used in design and analysis even for interfaces with different ply orientation. In this paper, our objective is to investigate the effect of ply orientation on the ILTS for CFRP. For this purpose, curved beam strength (CBS) experiments are conducted on CFRP 0 degrees//0 degrees, and 45 degrees//-45 degrees interfaces. It is found that for CFRP laminates 0 degrees//0 degrees ILTS is significantly higher than the other orientation. (c) 2019 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.

Mechanical properties of epoxy matrix composite reinforced with multi-walled carbon nanotubes Yüceer, Kevser.; Çöker, Demirkan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2019) Improving usage preference of composite material in the aerospace industry brings the requirement of improving mechanical properties of the material. In this thesis, mechanical improvement of epoxy composite materials is analyzed with contribution of functionalized multi-walled CNT with carboxyl group (-COOH) and non-functionalized MWCNT with epoxy for CNT weight fractions of 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.5 and 2.0 wt%. The nanomaterial is dispersed in epoxy resin by calendering mixing method. Functionalization of CNT p...
Interfacial reaction kinetics and microstructural evolution of C/SiC composites to metal joints Saltık, Simge; Dericioğlu, Arcan Fehmi; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2021-9-09) In the present study, joining of two dissimilar materials namely C/SiC composites and Ti6Al4V alloys by brazing using Ag-Cu based brazing filler alloys have been investigated. The effect of active Ti element content, additive particle size/amount in the filler alloy together with the reinforcement structure, material properties of the C/SiC composite on the interface evolution mechanism and resulting mechanical performance of the brazed joints have been examined. Additionally, apart from the brazing studies...
MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF REPAIRED CARBON FIBER REINFORCED POLYMER COMPOSITES Sonat, Emine Evren; Özerinç, Sezer; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2021-12-10) Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites are increasingly used in the aerospace industry due to their high specific strength compared to conventional metallic materials. However, a significant shortcoming of these composites is their increased susceptibility to damage. Structural repair is a common method to restore the load-carrying capacity of a damaged part when the damage size exceeds the pre-defined tolerances. Scarf and stepped bonded repair methods are the primary choice for cases that requi...
Multilayer graphene growth on polar dielectric substrates using chemical vapour deposition KARAMAT, SHUMAİLA; Celik, K.; Zaman, S. Shah; Oral, Ahmet (Elsevier BV, 2018-06-01) High quality of graphene is necessary for its applications at industrial scale production. The most convenient way is its direct growth on dielectrics which avoid the transfer route of graphene from metal to dielectric substrate usually followed by graphene community. The choice of a suitable dielectric for the gate material which can replace silicon dioxide (SiO2) is in high demand. Various properties like permittivity, thermodynamic stability, film morphology, interface quality, bandgap and band alignment...
Experimental investigation of dynamic delamination in curved composite laminates Uyar, İmren; Çöker, Demirkan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2014) In the aerospace industry, high demand for lightweight structures is fostering the use of composite laminates in a wide variety of shapes, as primary load carrying elements. However, once a composite laminate takes a highly curved shape, such as an L-shape, high interlaminar stresses induced in the curved region causes dynamic delamination formation. This thesis discusses the experimental investigation of delamination in L-shaped CFRP composite laminates under quasi-static shear loading. An experimental set...
