| Abstract Scope |
3D printing technology is widely used with ease of manufacturing and low cost. For the high-performance application, continuous fiber reinforced composite materials are effective to solve the issues that low mechanical properties and functional characteristics of the single-materials. Furthermore, 3D printed composite shows the peculiar shape compare to the general prepreg composite. To evaluate the microstructure, the micro-CT technologies can scan the internal shape using X-ray, and can obtain three-dimensional images without destroying. It is useful for checking the fracture behavior according to the fiber content.
The mechanical behavior was analyzed by focusing on the tensile load propagation, and interlaminar shear load and deformation regarding the characteristic shape of 3D printed composite. The numerical simulation with finite element method was used to observe the step-by-step shear behavior of the composite. Characterizing mechanical behavior of the 3D printed composite will be useful to understand the difference compare with the prepreg composite. |
