25、.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A90 curved-beam test specimen is used to measure thecurved beam strength of a continuous-fiber-reinforced compos-ite material (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). The curved beam strengthrepresents the moment per unit width which causes a delami-nation(s) to form. If the curved beam is

26、 unidirectional with allfibers running continuously along the legs and around the bendand an appropriate failure mode is observed, an interlaminar(through-the-thickness) tensile strength may also be calculated.The curved beam is uniform thickness and consists of twostraight legs connected by a 90 be

27、nd with a 6.4-mm 0.25-in.inner radius. The curved beam is loaded in four-point bendingto apply a constant bending moment across the curved testsection.An out-of-plane tensile stress is produced in the curvedregion of the specimen to cause the failure.5. Significance and Use5.1 Out-of-plane stress an

28、alyses are not easily performed.Failure criteria are varied and poorly validated. Interlaminarallowables are not readily available. However, stress analystsroutinely encounter structural details in which they cannotignore the out-of-plane loads. This test method is designed toproduce out-of-plane st

29、ructural failure data for structural de-sign and analysis, quality assurance, and research and devel-opment. For unidirectional specimens, this test method isdesigned to produce interlaminar tensile strength data. Factorsthat influence the curved beam strength and should therefore bereported include

30、 the following: material, methods of materialpreparation, methods of processing and specimen fabrication,specimen preparation, specimen conditioning, environment oftesting, speed of testing, time at temperature, void content, andvolume percent reinforcement.FIG. 1 Test Specimen Geometry (SI units)FI

31、G. 2 Test Specimen Geometry (inch-pound)D6415/D6415M 06a (2013)26. Interferences6.1 Failure in non-unidirectional specimens may be initiatedfrom matrix cracks or free edge stresses. Consequently, theinterlaminar strength calculated from non-unidirectional speci-mens may be in error.6.2 The stress st

32、ate of a curved beam in four-point bendingis complex. Circumferential tensile stresses are produced alongthe inner surface, and circumferential compressive stresses areproduced on the outer surface. The radial tensile stress rangesfrom zero at the inner and outer surfaces to a peak in the middlethir

33、d of the thickness. Consequently, the failure should becarefully observed to ensure that a delamination(s) is producedacross the width before the failure data are used.6.3 Since stresses are nonuniform and the critical stress stateoccurs in a small region, the location of architectural charac-terist

34、ics of the specimen (for example, fabric weave, and towintersections) may affect the curved beam strength.6.4 Nonlaminated, 3-D reinforced, or textile compositesmay fail by different mechanisms than laminates. The mostcritical damage may be in the form of matrix cracking or fiberfailure, or both, ra

35、ther than delaminations.6.5 Material and Specimen PreparationPoor material fab-rication practices, lack of control of fiber alignment, anddamage induced by improper coupon machining are knowncauses of high material data scatter in composites in general.Important aspects of specimen preparation that

36、contribute todata scatter include thickness variation, curve geometry, sur-face roughness, and failure to maintain the dimensions speci-fied in section 8.26.6 The curved beam and interlaminar strengths measuredusing this test method are extremely sensitive to reinforcementvolume and void content. Co

37、nsequently, the test results mayreflect manufacturing quality as much as material properties.Both reinforcement volume and void content shall be reported.6.7 Specimens with low bending stiffness, or high values ofinterlaminar strength, or both, may exhibit excessive bendingof the specimen legs durin

38、g flexural loading. This can createlarge errors in the calculated bending moment, resulting inunconservative strength calculations. A recommended limita-tion on crosshead displacement is provided in Section 12.Although outside of the scope of this test method, a doublermay be added to the legs to re

39、duce the flexure.7.
