2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The characterization of composite materials in railways for structural calculations has been
studied and the findings have been included in the deliverable 4.1.
This document proposes:
-
A guideline for determining the properties of a polymer matrix composites system for
a structural application, in order to be able to perform analysis with finite element
modeling.
Several test matrices are proposed, based on the Aeronautic/aerospace state of arts.
This document, and specifically the test matrix hereafter proposed, is mainly based
the Composite Material Handbook in reference [R1] written by the US Department of
Defense which were modified by Airbus Group internal documents. It covers two
kinds of structures using monolithic or sandwich material.
It concludes that for the mechanical analysis on a composite structure, some changes on the
methodology is needed, primarily due to the heterogeneity and anisotropy of the new
material.
Chapter 3 of this document gives a general overview on the global methodology that is used
for the characterization and testing of composite structures in aeronautic (experimental
building-block approach). The important link between the manufacturing process and the
material properties is also underlined, as well as the effect of the environment.
Chapter 4 underlines specifically the variability of the sources in composite materials, which
justifies the consideration of a statistical based method to establish the design values of
material properties.

Constituent Testing:
This evaluates the individual properties of fibers, fiber forms, matrix materials, and fibermatrix preforms.
Key properties, for example, include fiber and matrix density, and fiber tensile strength
and tensile modulus.
Laminate Testing:
Laminate testing characterizes the response of the composite material in a given
laminate design.
Key properties include tensile strengths and moduli, compressive strengths and moduli,
shear strengths and moduli, interlaminar fracture toughness, and fatigue resistance.

5.1
General considerations
In the constitution of the test matrix, it is implicitly considered that the composite material is
mainly loaded by in-plane loads (shell hypothesis). Indeed, this is considered as a best
practice in the design of composite structures. As a consequence, most of the tests are
focused on in-plane mechanical characteristics of the material. In case the structure would be
loaded by a high level of out of plane loads (3D state of stress), specific supplementary tests
should be considered to address this point.
As it has been said above in this document, the performance properties of composite
laminates are directly affected by the specific process used for their manufacturing process. It
is critical that the test specimens manufactured through the various levels of the building
block approach use the same process, representative of the one that will be used in the
manufacturing of the Railway parts.
It is still important to evaluate the resistance of new polymer materials to fluids with which
they might come in contact. In case the material is expected to be used in an application
where fluid exposure occurs for significant time periods at a different temperature, it is
recommended that the test laminates be exposed to the above fluids at room temperature
conditions, and tested over the expected range of service temperatures.
Annex2 gives the list of the existing standards related to composite characterization.
Concerning the standards proposed in the following matrices, AITM standards have not been
selected because they are under the copyright of AIRBUS INDUSTRIE. CEN/ISO standards
have been selected as much as possible. In case CEN/ISO standards are not available,
ASTM standards have been proposed according to document in reference [R1].
For more detail, the document in reference [R2] performs a complete comparison between
CEN and ASTM test methods for composite materials. Moreover, Annexe1 gives, for
information purpose, some generic considerations on the test procedure.

5.4
In the area of fatigue, however, no generalized methodology has yet been devised to predict
laminate behavior from unidirectional specimen data.
Hence, the development of fatigue design values becomes a unique problem for each
application lay-up.
Many studies have been undertaken, and much has been written concerning life prediction for
specific laminates under cyclic loading spectra. Even at this level, empirical methods have
been favored due to the inadequacy of results obtained from cumulative damage models,
fracture mechanics analyses, and other theoretical approaches.
Fatigue data is generated at the design critical test conditions (room temperature, or hot/wet).
The characteristics for fatigue resistance of materials shall be determined with experimental
methods for cyclic loadings associated with static loads under representative service
conditions.
The part of the fatigue curve which is characterized shall cover the domain of use (in term of
number of cycles, stress or strain amplitude and R ratio) see below:
max
S

With : R =
min
min
; ampl = (max min ) / 2
max
In general, composite structures are assumed to be less sensitive to dynamic loading than
metallic structures, but general well accepted hypothesis of damage accumulation are still
missing.
The damage itself is therefore strongly influenced by the number of cycles, the ultimate
loading and the order of the loading, i.e. if high load levels are applied onto the laminate
followed by lower leads to earlier failure than vice versa. This point has to be taken into
account when defining the test sequence of a composite structure/substructure under a
representative cycling loading.

for sample in tensile : DIN EN ISO 527-4 or DIN EN ISO 527-5 (for UD)
for samples in flexure samples : ISO 14125, with 4 points flexure preferred in that
case
NOTE : The general lack of todays existing and applied test methods must be seen
within the concentration on single mechanisms under investigation only, e.g.
constitutive behavior at certain stress ratios and/or single damage phenomena
etc. The question of general transferability of results, is not solved yet.
Furthermore, the principal phenomenology of fatigue damage on composite
materials is not understood. This is due to the very complex structure of
composite materials consisting of fiber roving, matrix material and adhesive
layers between fibers and matrix. In the near future, strong experimental effort
has to be spent for the investigation to answer these fundamental.
The determination of fatigue properties is commonly based on lifetime diagram (S-N
curves), energy release rates, residual strength and/or residual stiffness properties, (DIN
50100 - Dauerschwingversuch, 1978). With this, the fatigue strength and the fatigue limit
are estimated by measuring the number of cycles for given stress ratios.
NOTE : Generally, the low cycle fatigue regime (<105 cycles), the high cycle fatigue
regime (<106 cycles) and the very high cycle fatigue regime (>108 cycles) are
distinguished.
For each R ratio defined, the lifetime diagram (S-N curve) shall comprise at least 20
specimens (4 maximum stress or strain levels with 5 samples for each level), for each
representative temperature (see example below):

5.5 JOINTS
5.5.1 Definition of Joints
In order to limit the number of potential combinations all composite materials to be
considered as quasi-isotropic laminates. If it is not the case, tests should be performed
for each specific stacking sequence.
Bonded Joints (only pure adhesives considered, without any additives like short-fibers)
Both joints for composite vs. composite pieces and composite vs. metal pieces
Adhesives with high Youngs Modulus, low strains (i.e. known as thin-film), best
properties 0.05mm < t < 0.2mm i.e. for epoxy
Adhesives with low Youngs Modulus, high strains (i.e. known as thick-film)
Mechanical Joints
- 20 -
Due to peak stress at the edge of the bonded joint, the shear strength is
usually not proportional to the bonded length. As a consequence, the
sample joint design should be as close as possible from the final design.
In the case it is not possible, the local stress distribution along the
bonded joint should be evaluated throw a calculation.
For mechanical joint with composite parts, it must be considered that composite
material is more sensitive to creeping than metal under compressive load. As a
consequence, the loss of pre-load in the screw/rivet have to be considered and
characterized by tests. In the case of highly loaded screw/rivet, the admissible
surface pressure has to be checked. A metallic insert can also be embedded in
the clamping area to improve those points.

*3 In general, testing negative 'R'-ratios depends on the parts which are considered and especially the loads which are applied, i.e. aerodynamical loads. Therefore, in some cases it is necessary
to consider R=0, or 0.7 and in some rare cases R=-0.5 to -0.7 as well. For compression fatigue R-values (i.e. R=-1.0), the specimen needs to be stiff enough in order to establish compressive
stresses

6. MODELLING PROCEDURE
6.1 STATIC MODELLING (*1)
When modeling composites, two ways can be followed: solid elements or shell elements.
Since the thickness of composites is mostly very small compared to its remaining dimensions
modeling laminates with a certain amount of plies by using solid elements is very expensive
considering model size and solving time.
Therefore in that case, using shell elements for the laminates is probably the best and most
efficient choice. Indeed, 3D models are reduced to their middle surface and meshed with shell
elements. For laminates, it is defined that the laminate layers are bonded together in order to
form a cohesive structure.
In the FE program, a component name for the laminate has to be chosen. After that the
property for laminates is defined and a material is allocated. These properties generate shell
elements where the following characteristics are defined and may be different for every ply:

The in-plane characteristics of the lamina EL, ET, GLT and nuLT need to be define to perform
analysis, where E and G are Youngs modulus and shear modulus resp. and the subscripts L,
T denote the longitudinal and transverse fiber direction.
When the elementary properties of the fiber and the matrix are the only datas available, it is
possible to evaluate the properties of the lamina (elementary unidirectional ply) by using the
simplest assumptions for stiffness homogenization:
EL E f (1 ) Em
(2)
LT f (1 ) m
(3)
1 / ET / E f (1 ) / Em
(4)
Where the subscripts f and m denote the fiber and matrix correspondence respectively, and
the fiber volume fraction is denotes by .
Nevertheless, the properties in transverse fiber direction commonly need a correction. In case
of composites containing isotropic fibers, the following formulae for transverse stiffness
moduli were established:
ET
(1 0,85 2 ) Em
Em / E f (1 )1, 25
(5)
ET
0,5(1 )
/ E f 0,5(1 ) / Em
(6)

(7)
Em (1 ) E f
ET Em / 1 (1 Em / E f )
(8)
General recommendations when using equations (5) to (8) can not be given. It must be noted,
that the range of results can reach more than 10%. As a consequence, theses formulas
should be considered only unless material characterization of the lamina is available (see
5.2).
NOTE : concerning GLT, it is assumed to be not so different from a material to another (for
epoxy systems). As a consequence, for a early phase of project it is proposed to use
previously characterized value as a first order of magnitude, unless characterization test
results will be available.
IMPORTANT : All the methodologies mentioned above are used to calculate the constitutive
properties of composite materials in 2D conditions, only. The constitutive properties in
thickness direction are not covered by the CLT. For this, advanced mathematical tools, e.g.
analytical and/or numerical homogenization techniques have to be applied.
- 25 -
In case of very complex microstructures, the use of a representative volume element (RVE) in
conjunction with numerical homogenization scheme is recommended, (Bhlke, 2001),
(Kouznetsova, 2002), (Lubarda, 2002) or (Nemta-Nasser, 1999).
Therefore the RVE must capture the main features of the microstructure and has to represent
a material point on the macrostructure at the same time. This is achieved if the dimensions on
the microscale are orders of magnitudes smaller compared to the structural dimensions,
which is known as scale separation.
The aim of analytical as well as numerical methods to estimate effective material properties is
to obtain macroscopically homogeneous properties from the microscopically very
inhomogeneous constituents, which can be used in structural analysis (see fig. 7 from Gross
& Seelig, 2007).
It must be noticed that RVE method is considered as an advanced method not frequently
used in industry for structure analysis.

where Fi and Fij denote strength tensors of second and fourth order, respectively.
It must be noted that a distinction between fiber cracking and matrix failure cannot be made in
those criterion : the onset of failure itself is predictable, only.
By different choices of the coupling coefficient F12 numerous well established criteria can be
deduced from the general interpolation criterion (see table 1, where RL , RL , RT and RT
denote the longitudinal and transverse tensile and compression strength values, respectively).

Beside the interpolation criteria mentioned above, some other criterion where introduced in
order to perform a distinction between fiber fracture and inter fiber fracture. In that case the
inter fiber fracture criterion was introduced, motivated by experimental observations where an
interaction of the transverse tensile stress and the shear stress was noticed (see figure 9).
The fracture limit obviously is reached before the strength values.

simultaneously. Hence there is no further crack opening but the fracture surfaces are
pressed on each other.
3. Mode C: if the ratio of compressive normal stress at fracture and the transverse
compressive strength exceeds a value of 0,4, the action plane of the external shear
stress is no more the fracture plane but the fracture occurs on a plane inclined by an
t
_bearing = P / (D x t)
An example of the resulting bearing stress/bearing strain curve is shown in Figure below.
The bearing strain was obtained by normalizing the displacement by the bolt diameter.
The offset bearing strength is the value to consider for calculations. Thus, the 2% offset
measurement, which is the default in the proposed standard (see figure below), correspond to
a ovalisazion of 2% of the hole diameter.
Offset bearing strength
- 30 -
There is no general consensus as to what the value of the offset bearing strength should be.
The usage in the aerospace industry varies from 1%D for stiff double shear joints, to 4%D for
single shear joints (the latter being a standard for metal bearing tests).

To overcome the problem of stress singularity at the crack tip and to assess especially
delamination phenomena, cohesive zone models can be used, (Dugdale, 1960), (Barenblatt,
1962) or (Camanho, Dvila, & Ambur, 2001). The crack tip is extended to a fracture process
zone where cohesive forces can cause a critical crack opening. Thereafter, the cohesive
forces degrade until the crack surfaces are stress free and the crack further propagates.
Beside the discrete fracture models described above, the continuum damage mechanics
which uses a continuous degradation parameter to describe the loss of stiffness in a material,
can be used. Therefore, the ratio of actual effective area without any defects to the initial area
is assessed. Thus, the actual damage can be quantified in a smeared manner.
The numerical treatment of fracture and damage phenomena was pushed by (Mazars &
Pijaudier-Cabot, 1989) by the introduction of a model to describe the damage localization.
Due to the smeared character not the crack itself but its action on the continuum is modeled.
The use of discrete interface elements based on cohesive zone approaches was pioneered
by (Neeleman, 1987).
NOTE : For implementation issues of cohesive zone approaches into finite element program
(Xu & Needleman, 1993), (Xu & Needleman, 1995), (Ortiz & Pandolfi, 1999), (Ghosh, Ling,

6.1.2.1 Modeling
Depending on the level of through thickness stresses, choice of 2-D or 3-D elements shall be
made for sandwich panels analysis. If out of plane stresses may be neglected, in-plane 2-D
analysis (shell elements) may be used, otherwise, 3-D elements should be used.
FEA of sandwich structures can be carried out with following element types or combinations:
a single layered shell elements for the entire sandwich material (for in-plane 2-D
analysis)
- 32 -
(layered) shell elements for the faces and solid elements for the core (for 3-D analysis)
solid elements for both faces and core (detailed 3-D analysis,).
The solid modeling could be restrained to local areas of complex geometry, load introduction
where out of plane effects are more significant and require locally more complex modelling.
For the analysis of sandwich structures, special considerations shall be taken into account,
such as:
For many core materials, experimentally measured values of E, G and are not in agreement
with the isotropic formula. In that case, to assure that the shear response of the core will be
described accurately, the measured values for G and shall be used, and the E value shall
be calculated from the formula : E= 2 G (1+).
Modeling of skin laminates uses same methodologies than described chapter 6.1.1.
In the facesheets
In the core
at the core-facesheets interface
Failure in the facesheets
A laminate failure can occur in facesheets caused by an overstressing (Fig. 13).
Determination of strength allowables for the laminates uses same methodologies than
described chapter 6.1.1.
One can note that allowables material values used in facesheet analysis have to be fully
representative of skin materials real strength, process effects on mechanical characteristics
should be taken into account (for example, co-curing of composite skins on honeycomb may
generate waves on the inner plies of skins and reduce strength) .

If it can be documented that the interface is stronger than the core, core properties can be

is stronger than the core.

After calculating, the bolt forces are obtained. With these forces, an evaluation with respect to
the according limiting standard (i.e. VDI2230) and values for screws, bolts or rivets can be
undertaken. With respect to composite laminates this procedure is most likely for joints where
small loads are applied.
In a second step, if the bolt connection becomes critical or more relevant, preload to the bolts
and contact between the surfaces can be modeled in order to evaluate the joint more
detailed.

In case of endurance limit, the laminate must sustain the maximum load on a continuing
basis,
In case of fatigue strength, a damage accumulation occurs during the loading. The
damage itself is therefore strongly influenced by the number of cycles, the ultimate
loading and the order of the loading.
In (Degrieck & Van Paepegem, 2001), three categories of fatigue models were defined:
1. Fatigue life models :
These models use information from the S-N curves or Goodman-type diagrams to
propose a fatigue failure criterion. Damage accumulation is not taken into account,
whereas the maximum number of cycles for fatigue failure under fixed loading conditions
is predicted.
One fatigue life model usually considered is given by the Miners sum. In the Miners sum
method, the results of a counting method and constant amplitude fatigue behavior
description are converted into a damage parameter, D. Failure criterion of the laminate
is considered when D>1 (see. Figure 22)

As a consequence, this method can be sometimes non conservative. Moreover, the
value of the damage parameter only indicates whether or not failure occurred: it does
not relate to a physically quantifiable damage.
Nevertheless, this method is today in use for the fatigue sizing of current area of wind
blades or even helicopter blade for instance, but with integrating specific coefficient
based on tests.
2. Phenomenological models to predict residual stiffness/strength :
These models predict the degradation of elastic properties during fatigue loading, where a
scalar damage variable D=1-E/E0 is commonly used to describe the loss of stiffness. The
damage growth rate is then defined as the derivative dD/dN where N denotes the number
of cycles.
3. Residual strength models:
The residual strength models are distinguished between sudden death models and
wearout models. When the composite is subjected to high load levels within the low-cycle
fatigue regime, the residual strength is initially constant and decreases drastically when
the number of cycles to failure is nearly reached. For this, the sudden death model can be
used to describe this phenomenon. If the composite undergoes a state of stress at low
load levels, the residual strength degrades more gradually and can be described by
wearout models which incorporate the strength-life equal rank assumption, i.e. the
strongest specimen has either the longest fatigue life or the highest residual strength at
runout, (Degrieck & Van Paepegem, 2001).

Nevertheless, a first step to the mathematical modeling of fatigue behavior by means of finite
element method was carried out by the finite element system Abaqus by means of the Direct
Cyclic Approach (DCA).
Conventional fatigue analysis determines the fatigue limit by means of well-established S-N
curves but does not define the relationship between the number of cycles and the
corresponding level of damage.
In DCA, the fatigue life is calculated by using an appropriate damage evolution relation until
the structures response has stabilized after a number of cycles. Generally, the stabilized
constitutive response of the structure subjected to cyclic loading conditions is achieved by
applying periodic load cycles repetitively to the unstressed structure until a stabilized state is
obtained. The response is calculated at discrete points along the loading history, what makes
the DCA a very effective tool for modelling fatigue life, figure 25.

7. CONCLUSION
To perform a mechanical analysis with FEM on a composite structure, such as a
carbodyshell, it is needed to make some changes on the methodology that is used for metallic
structures.
Indeed, heterogeneity and anisotropy of the composite material must be taken into account in
the intrinsic material properties to consider in calculations and also in the analysis theory
itself.
The chapter 3 of this document gives a general overview on the global methodology that is
used for the characterization and testing of composite structures in aeronautic (experimental
building-block approach). The important link between the manufacturing process and the
material properties is also underlined, as well as the effect of the environment (hygrometry
ageing, temperature, etc).
The chapter 4 underlines specifically the variability of the sources in composite materials,
which justifies the consideration of a statistical based method to establish the design values of
material properties.
Based on these preliminary bases, the chapter 5 proposes a selection of relevant tests to
characterize the material properties needed in the most standard structure analysis (in plane
stress and strain and standard elastic theory). The test matrices proposed have to be
considered for new materials and for the most generic application. They should be simplified
taking into account the existing knowledge/available user datas, and of course the specific
requirements of the application. Reduced test matrix are nevertheless proposed for the
screening phases of the project, when a selection between several candidates has to be
done.
Besides, in chapter 5 one sub-chapter is dedicated to elementary fatigue test in current area,
and another to elementary testing of some junctions. It should be noticed that those chapters
are more prone to adaptation/modification depending on the application, as there is a lack of
currently shared methodologies and standards in these fields over the industry.
The chapter 6 proposes some preferred failure criterions to consider in the analysis of both
monolithic and sandwich structures. It also gives a brief overview on numerical methods
available for calculation of composite structure in static and fatigue. Chapter 6 gives also
some advice for the calculation of joints with a finite element code. It should be noticed that
the calculation of fatigue resistance will be more deeply considered in T4.3, which dedicated
to this task.

Depending on the size of the textile structure, multidirectional laminates are tested with
large specimen widths of 25 mm or even 50 mm. According to ISO 527-4, the thickness
of the specimen can also be up to 10 mm. Due to the large specimen cross-sections, very
large tensile forces of over 300 kN can occur. To measure strain, strain gages,
mechanical extensometers or optical extensometers can be used.
Notch Tensile Test (Open Hole Tensile)
This test characterizes the influence of a hole on the tensile strength of a laminate. The
result is usually presented as a notch factor, which gives the ratio of damaged to
undamaged specimen
Tensile Test on Bolted Laminates (Filled Hole Tensile)
This test uses the same specimen as the notch tensile test and the hole is closed with a
threaded connection.
2. Compression tests
The compression tests are amongst the most difficult tests and are therefore sometimes
described as the ultimate class of test. Various procedures have become established in
practice
End-loading procedure
This procedure is based on ASTM D 695 and has been further developed in various
standards. It involves loading the specimen longitudinally between two pressure plates. A
buckling support prevents premature failure of the material through bending.
The test consists of two parts:
- 44 -
Shear loading
In this procedure, the compressive force is applied by clamping the specimen, i.e. via a
frictional contact. It was standardized in the 1980s in ASTM D 3410 as the Celanese
testing tool with conical clamping elements and further developed in various standards.
Under the Celanese arrangement, deviations in specimen thickness lead to unwanted
linear support of the clamping elements. DIN 65375 and prEN 2850 offer modified
Celanese tools with flat wedges to solve the problem of specimen thickness.
The IITRI developed a similar tool, which nowadays replaces the old Celanese
compression tool in ASTM. This tool - like the predecessor model - works on the wedge
clamping principle. The wedge jaws are first aligned on the specimen outside the
compression tool and then placed into the compression tool.
IMA Dresden developed and patented the hydraulic compression tool HCCF. It has very
good accessibility, simple handling and fixed jaws, which remain precisely aligned to each
other even during the test procedure. The parallel hydraulic specimen clamping is stickslip free, unlike the wedge-based principles. The use of a clip-on extensometer is
possible.
- 45 -
3. Flexural test
3-point flexural test
the failure area of the specimen is not located in the area where the load is
introduced.
NOTE : In the 3 points flexural tests, the local load introduction under the cylinder can
cause local degradation to the material and affect the results.
- 46 -
The flexural modulus is determined between 0.05 and 0.25% strain (ISO 14125) or 0.1
and 0.3% strain (ASTM D 7264).
The central support span can be 1/3 (ISO 14125) or 1/2 (ASTM D 7264) of the lower
support span.
The span-to-thickness ratio is 32:1 in ASTM. ISO uses 22.5:1 for GFRP and 40.5:1 for
CFRP.

In-plane shear
In-plane shear can be produced by performing a tensile or compression test at 45 to
the fiber direction.
The specimens are cut from plates at 45 to the fiber direction.
DMS or extensometers are used to measure longitudinal and transverse extension.
The test method is suitable only for extensions of less than 5%.
6. V-notch shear
This test arrangement is used both for in-plane and for interlaminar shear. Each of the six
possible shear planes can be tested separately. Two characteristics of the procedure are
standardized
Losipescu Procedure (not considered in this document)
In this test arrangement, which is described in ASTM D 5379, a specimen notched on
both sides is clamped in a special device which is held longitudinally.
When compressed, this creates a zone of torque-free shear load between the notches.
The fibers must lie parallel or perpendicular to the loading axis.
Strain gages are placed at less than 45 in the direction of the shear plane in order to
determine the shear extension.
Results are shear response, 0.2% offset stress, max. shear stress and secant shear
modulus.
- 48 -
Pre-damage
In the instrumented drop weight tester HIT 230F, the specimen is pre-damaged under set
conditions.
The specimens are tensioned on a section of:
76.2 x 127 mm (ASTM, Boeing, SACMA, DIN), 75 x 125 mm (EN, Airbus) or 140 mm
diameter (CRAG). Only the Airbus AITM requires clamping within the section. To simplify
operation, the specimens are tensioned outside the drop weight tester and then inserted
into the testing position.
The pre-damaging procedure can be monitored and assessed using the instrumentation
of the drop weight tester. The first damage peak on the power-time curve also gives a
correlation to the Mode II fracture toughness of the laminate.
CAI compression test
The pre-damaged specimens are tested in a special compression tool to establish the
residual compression strength.
The resulting compression forces are usually very large.
To load the test plates without buckling, special compression tools are used that are
distinct within the standardization:
ASTM, Boeing, SACMA and DIN: All four sides are guided, but not clamped.
ISO, EN and Airbus standards: The upper and lower ends of the specimen are clamped.
The sides are guided with line contact
- 49 -
8. Fracture Toughness
Essentially, a distinction is made between three types of mode in the fracture mechanics:
-
- 50 -
At the end of the measurement, the specimen is cooled in liquid nitrogen and then
completely broken to measure the fracture surfaces.
9. Fatigue test
Fatigue behavior in fiber composites is measured under a range of loads: as a tensile
test, an in-line shear test or at screw or bolt connections.
Different machine types are possible:
