DETERMINATION OF THE TECHNICAL CONSTANTS OF LAMINATES IN OBLIQUE DIRECTIONS P. Vidouse Metallic Manufacturing Industry Scientific and Technical Research Center Summary An off-axis tensile test theory is explained and coefficients are given to correct experimental results obtained working on usual testing machines. Theoretical results are compared with those obtained by R.X', Courtade with a finite element method and with experimental results obtained on laminates reinforced with glass in various ways. Introduction /1* This work constitutes the fourth part of the research undertaken by the Centre de Recherches Scientifiques et Techniques de 11Industrie des Fabrications Metalliques [Metallic Manufacturing Industry Scientific and Technical Research Center] (CRIF) on dimensioning of reinforced plastics, at the request of the industrial members of the Fabriplast Group of Fabrimetal. Previously published papers concerning this research are the following: -- "Relation entre 1'etat de polymerisation, la fatigue et le fluage dune resine epoxy renforcee au verre textile" [Relation between the State of Polymerization, Fatigue and Flow of a Fiberglass-Reinforced Epoxy Resin](CRIF Publication PL 1) — "Study for polymerization and curing of polyester and epoxy resins by the dilatometric and resistivimetric methods" (CRIF Publication PL 2) -- "Theoretical and experimental study of the technical constants of laminates" (CRIF Publication PL 3) *Numbers in the margin indicate pagination in the foreign text. 1 1I

I This study, like the preceding ones, is the result of collaboration between various research organizations; -- the Centre Europeen de Recherches et Essais [European Research and Testing Center] (CERE) of the Fiberglass Division of Saint- Gobain Industries at Chambery manufactured the rest materials and participated in interpretation of the results; -- the Institut National des Sciences Appliquees [National Applied Sciences Institute] (INSA) of Lyon performed the calculations according to the finite element theory; -- the Laboratoire de Resistance des Materiaux [Materials Resistance Laboratory] of the University of Liege performed the tests and contributed to analysis of the results; and lastly, -- the CRIF, acting as scientific coordinator, exploited the results and assumed scientific and technical resplosibility for the work. The CRIF is very grateful to these various organizations, without whose assistance the research could not have been successfully concluded. 1. Pur2ose of `rests 12 At the time when work was being done as reported in the paper entitled "Theoretical and experimental study of the technical constants of laminates" [1), traction tests in directions other than principal directions were carried out on the same laminates. Since these tests were carried out in a conventional manner, the results cannot be directly exploited but must be corrected in order to take into account the coupling phenomenon between traction and shear. The purpose of this work is to analyze technical constants in oblique directions and Co demonstrate that it is possible to predetermine them theoretically with adequate precision. Correction coefficients have been determined, based on an approximate elastic theory, and verified for one type of laminate with an ex- 2

I act theory utilizing finite elements. (It will be recalled that this method consists of cutting the structure under study into a finite number of areas with simple geometric shapes termed "finite elements" (in this case, rectangles) and subsequently rejoining these areas with the aid of a computer.) These coefficients take into account particularly the type of extensometer utilized and the geometric parameters of the test. 2. approximate Theory of Traction Tests in Oblique Directions /3 2.1 General As demonstrated by the generalization of Hooke's Law [11, a simple traction test on an anisotropic material induces not only normal deformation e, but also tangential deformations y. Reportedly there is coupling of traction and shear effects. e x S 1 S 12 Cy Sly S22 lrxy Sae Sze S1 6 vX S te 0 (^) See 0 This equation demonstrates that e and y xy are not non-existent when S 16 and S 26 are not zero. Experience also demonstrates clearly that warping occurs during a traction test to the extent allowed by the anchorage of the ends of the test piece (Figure 1) . Figure 1 illustrates the deformation of a test piece made of a material which is not symmetric with respect to thickness. If the material is symmetric, warping occurs only on the plane surface of the test piece (Figure 4) . ^f 3

Conventional test equipment, designed for isotropic materials, does not allow the ends of the test pieces to be rotated. When traction tests of anisotropic materials are carried out using this equipment, parasitic moments are introduced which could invalidate the results. The following theory is intended to calculate the error introduced by this procedure, and to correct the values obtained,by means of a coefficient which, as will be shown, depends particularly on the type of extensometer utilized. Various types of extensometers exist, differing particularly with respect to the test piece attachment means. As shown in Figure 2 1 the relative position of the feelers can vary; the Type I extensometer has feelers placed on both sides of the test piece while the Type II extensometer has feelers only on one side. The Type I and Type II extensometers are located at the edge of the test piece. The Type III extensometer is similar to the Type II extensometer, but its feelers rest on one of the surfaces of the test piece. Lastly, the Type IV extensometer is an axially oriented strain gauge. 2.2 Traction Test Theory 2.2.1 Compatibility Equation The analytic solution of the problem is obtained by applying the theory of elasticity [2]. The reference axis orientation is illustrated in Figure 3. The following relations must be satisfied [4]; -- equilibrium equations: aQa T aX + axy = 0 (2) Lx + aTxy = 0 ay ax 4 .. t M ^ a k

These measurements can be made without any particular difficulty for isotropic materials, regardless of the type of extensometer utilized. in the case of anisotropic materials, the field of deformation is not uniform, as shown in Figure 4, as charted for a flexible material utilizing equations (15) (E ll = 8 kg/mm 2 , E 22 = 0.5 kg/mm2 , v 12 = 0.5, V21 = 0.03125, G 12 = 0.2 kg/mm2 ) for elongation of co = 20 percent. 8

7 Therefore, for these materials, it is necessary to examine more closely the magnitudes actually yielded by tile, measurement equipment. In the case of Figure 5, the test piece is fitted with a Type z extensometer (see Figure 2a) whose feelers are located at points A and B and with a transverse strain gauge whose ends are located at points C and D.

2.2.5 Correction Coefficients for the Modulus of Elasticity Let us consider the Type Z extensometer as shown in Figure 5. When a x is replaced in equation (20) by its expression (131, and relations (16) are taken into account, the expression of a* is written: S1G 2 S11 * S 06 QX CO b 2( .-_.- _ 2 ` S16 "T S11 / + ^ S16 1 R (23) The .00rdinates of extensometer feeler application points A and a are, ;:•espectively : A ( - c ; b) et B ( + c - b) [23a) When uA and u B are calculated by means of relation (15) and are replaced in equation (18), we obtain: b3 S12 r I ^11 - Isc S11 S IG S 66 S 11 S16 yielding: I ^X * * - S 11 (1 - nI) E XX o X S 66 - 2S1 6 -b (^2 )C=Co C 2) c ^ S1 S i I 2 S16 R2 S 11 (24) S11 S16 /9 (25) with the subscript "z" referring to a Type Z extensometer.

For the strain gauge: 2 SIG n = 2 I S11(6S66 + S11) - 4 S16 ( 2 9) The Type TIT extensometer whose edges rest on the surface of the test piece should not be utilized for tests in oblique directions, since the edges thus rest along a line which will be warped, and the contact point of the feeler cannot be determined. Therefore, for this type of test, the extensometer should be located along the edge of the test piece. in summary, positing: a = 2 Si6 X2 /10 (30) Q = S IG (^ - (:2) S 11 1' j ( S 1?. + S66 = S 11 (6 S 66 +;- S 11) - 2 a 11 11

Comparison of the Approximate Theory and the Finite Element Theory /12 3.1 General In their publication "Deplacements, deformations et contraintes dans les materiaux elastiques anisotropes" [Displacements, Deforv-1tions and Strains in Anisotropic Elastic Materials] [3], R.M. Courtade et al. deal with the elaboration of the strain/deformation relation for an anisotropic elastic material, based on a procedure of calculations utilizing finite elements. As illustrated in Figure 6, this method allows limit conditions which are slightly different from those set forth in Section 2.2.2. Since this system is not symmetric with respect to the y-axis = 2, in the case of the Type II extensometer, the results differ depending on whether the extensometer is placed to the left (at AB) or to the right (at A'B') of the test piece (Figure 6). 13

.--R--- 3.2 Compari^don of Correction Coefficients Found by the Two Theories These coefficients were calculated for a plate (1B in Table 11) with the following characteristics: Resin: rigid polyester Reinforcement: unidireotional (23% glass by volume) R = 100 mm Ell 1914 kg/mm2 b = 10 mm E 2 2 = 639 kg/mm2 C = 25 mm 0.327 v12 = d = 5 mm G12 = 257 kg/mm2 As shown in Table 1, the two theories yield correction coeffici- /13 ents which are relatively close, except in the case of the Type 11 extensometer. These deviations principally result from limit conditions which are not the same in the two cases. The deviations for the (1 coefficients are somewhat more significant. This comparison allows us to conclude that the approximate theory is sufficiently correct to be utilized in a study of the influence of geometric parameters on test conditions. 4. Influence of Geometric Test Parameters on the Correction Coeffi- 14 cients 4.1 General The influence of geometric parameters on the values of correction coefficients was studied for a material with the following characteristics: E f = 7000 kg/mm 2 ; v f = 0.25; Em = 395 kg/mm 2 ; v m = 0.35; p =0.23. These characteristics are those of Plate 1B in Table 11. r z 14 t r M ,

Moreover, the T 1 parameter will vary, being proportional to the quantity of fibers lying in direction 1. Thus, if T 1 = 1, the laminate is unidirectional; if T 1 = 0.5 1 the laminate is balanced and bidirectional.; and, if T = 0 1 the fibers all lie in direction 2. The i symbols utilized for dimensions are defined in Figure 4 and Figure S. 4.2 Influence of the Type of Extensometer and of Tj Figure 7 illustrates for different values of T 1 the variation of different correction coefficients as functions of the angle a formed by the principal direction 1 of the material with the x-axis of the test piece (Figure 3). The geometric parameters selected for these calculations are those utilized for the tests, i.e.: R = 100 mm; b = 10 mm, with c = 25 mm for the Type I and Type II extensometers and c = 5 mm for the axial strain gauge. It can be seen that the coefficients with respect to the Type I extensometer are the most significant. Then follow (1 - n II) and LL5 nIV). With respect to the strain gauge, the latter is relatively (1 - weak. The correction factor (1 - f) for the Poisson coefficient is also small. It can also be seen that when T 1 = 1, the greatest absolute value of these coefficients is obtained when angle 8 = 250. 4.3 Influence of the Length of the Test Piece The curves shown in Figure 8 were calculated for T 1 = Ire = 22.50 and b = 10 for different values of c, with k being variable. It should be noted that with respect to Type I extensometers, the (1- n I) coefficients do not converge towards 1, contrary to supposition. This indicates that even if the test piece is quite long, a correction factor should be utilized with this type of extensometer. The other factors converge rapidly towards 1. 15

F- 4 — 4.4 Influence of the Length of the Extensometer Measurement Base Figure 9 illustrates the influence of the relation cA on the value of the (1 - n i ) and (1 -- n i ) coefficients. The other coefficients are not affected. The curves shown in Figure 9 were obtained for Z = 100 mm, b = 10 mm, T = 1 and 0 = 22.5 0 . In addition, Figure 9 i shows the homologous curved obtained utilizing the finite element method. 4.5 Influence of the Lengthh of the Strain Gauge Measuring ey Figure 10 illustrates the influence of the relation d/b on the (1 - *) factor with respect to the Poisson coefficient. This curve was also obtained for T l = 1, 8 = 22.5°, b = 10 mm and R = 100 mm, with d being variable. 5. Choice of a Type of Extensometer 16 Study of the influence of geometric parameters allow p conclusions to be drawn concerning the type of extensometer and the dimensions of test pieces to be utilized in traction tests in oblique directions. Working conditions must be those under which the correction coefficients are the smallest. As noted above (Section 2.2.5), in order to measure e x , the Type II extensometer located on the surface of the test piece should not be utilized. The Type I extensometer utilized for tests should also be eschewed, since the corresponding correction coefficients do not converge towards 1 (see Figure 8). For measurement of e x , the two best types of extensometer are Type II and Type IV. Strain gauges are the most suitable to the extent that the operator is in complete control of their method of utilization on plastic materials. To measure e y , it is preferable to utilize a strain gauge whose length is as nearly as possible equal to the width of the test piece. In any case, the value of the (1 coefficient is always very close i to 1. I' 16 F' f

A transverse extensometer may also be utilizers. in such tests, the Q/b ratio should be at least 20 in order to yield virtually negligible correction coefficients. 6. Test Results Compared to the Puck Theory 17 6.1 Test Method The tests were carried out under the following conditions and with the equipment listed: -- test piece dimensions: see Figure 11 -- test equipment: Tinius Olsen UEH Dynamic -- feeler displacement speed: 1.25 mm/minute -- extensometer: Tinius Olsen with 50 mm measurement base -- strain gauge: TML Type Pl 10; 10 mm load cell: Tinius Olsen 3 t. 6.2 Materials Tested The materials tested were the same as those utilized in report [1]. The composition of these materials is given in Table II and their glass content is given in Table III. 6.3 Test Results Test results are summarized in Table IV, where they are compared with the values obtained utilizing the Puck theory [1].

--- the angle 0 defined in Figure 3 and ---- the theoretical values of EPuck vPuck --- the experimental values E* and v* with the deviation in percent from theoretical values --• the corrected experimental values E eXp and v exp with the deviation in percont from the Puck theory 7. Conclusions /,^5 As shown in Table IV, the deviations obtained between the Puck theory and the experiments are satisfactory (less than 15%) in a majority of cases for measurement of the modulus of elasticity. Moreover, utilization of correction coefficients more often than not brought the measured value close to the theoretical value. The deviations observed are slightly more important than they are for the principal directions, particularly for unbalanced laminates. This is due to the fact that only three tests were made for the latter directions, while five tests were made for the principal directions. Therefore, in the former case, the mean is less representative. Some of the deviations obtained for Poisson coefficients are quite large, as was the case for the principal directions [1). These large deviations are probably attributable to faulty attachment of the gauge to the test piece or to parasitic errors introduced into the measurement system. This has led us to conceive of a systematic study of the use of gauges on plastic materials. This study will be carried out in the next few months. It is in fact important to answer the question raised by an author: "Do we measure strain when we measure strain?" Current work indicates that somet',mes this question must be answered in the negative, and it is absolutely essential to resolve this problem if we are to obtain a better understanding of the behavior of reinforced plastics. 18
