Device and method for testing stress relaxation of winding-formed fiber reinforced composite material
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of mechanical property testing of resin-based fiber-reinforced composite materials, and particularly relates to a stress relaxation testing device and method for a winding-forming fiber-reinforced composite material.
Background
The high specific strength, high specific modulus properties of polymer matrix composites make them an indispensable role in aerospace, energy, sports, automotive industry and various infrastructures. The winding forming process is an important mode for forming the fiber reinforced composite material rotary structure, and is used for forming typical prestress structures such as a carbon fiber sheath of a high-speed motor rotor, a high-pressure composite gas cylinder and the like in recent years. The prestress of the winding structure provides positive pressure for the internal components, playing an important role in protecting the internal structure.
In the long-term use process of the fiber-reinforced composite material, the viscoelasticity of the polymer matrix can cause the long-term mechanical property of the fiber-reinforced composite material to change, creep and stress relaxation occur, and the prestress of the component is further attenuated to be lower than a safety threshold value. The deterioration of the preload force not only affects the reliability of the parts, but may also pose a threat to the safety of the overall system. Therefore, the residual pretightening force of the polymer matrix composite in the use process is obtained by measuring the change of the long-term mechanical property of the fiber reinforced composite in various complex service environments, and is the key for evaluating the service life of the prestressed material or the structure. The method has important significance for improving the overall performance and economic benefit of the product, and provides scientific basis for further research and development of more advanced composite materials.

The above patent is mainly oriented to composite material ribs formed by pultrusion, the structure of a test sample is in a plate/strip shape, the deformation of the test sample in the test process needs to be ensured to be a fixed value in the stress relaxation test, and the deformation caused by the slip influence of the clamping end of the tested sample in the actual long-term test process is very difficult to control, so that the measurement of the stress relaxation performance of the fiber reinforced composite material is difficult, and therefore, the above patent fails to clearly improve and control the influence of the end change. Chinese invention patent CN108801768A provides a testing method for stress relaxation of fiber-oriented flexible material, chinese invention patent CN113654779a discloses a testing method for stress relaxation suitable for taper structure, chinese invention patent CN102353588A and chinese invention patent CN102650581a respectively disclose a testing device and a testing method for stress relaxation of rubber and sheet spring. The above-described apparatus and method are difficult to apply to wound fiber reinforced composite structures.
At present, a testing device and a testing method for stress relaxation characteristics of a winding-forming pre-stress fiber reinforced composite material are lacked, and meanwhile, the problem that strain is difficult to accurately capture due to end clamping position sliding in stress relaxation measurement of a plate and strip sample in the conventional general fiber reinforced composite material testing method is solved.
