An enormous, ultra-light, super-durable and incredibly capacious composite heart will be built during this season of the KOMPOZYT-EXPO® Trade Fair; it will serve as a money box for the finale of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity 2014 that will take place in Krakow. A super-ecological car – InEco® Concept – made of ultra-light composite materials. And yet another surprise for car lovers: a single – seat “Colibri” micro-car – economic, comfortable and safe for urban use.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the most significant event in the composites industry in Central and Eastern Europe – KOMPOZYT-EXPO® – is almost upon us.

We hope to see you in Krakow on 21-22 November 2013, for at least these important reasons: First, the international rank of the Fair The event, organized for the fourth time by Targi w Krakowie, has developed into its own brand at remarkable speed, having won the recognition of the industry in Poland and in the foreign markets.

This is your opportunity to see the presentation of news from the world of composites at this great place for meetings, contacts and exchanges of information in the magical atmosphere of Krakow, one of the best destinations for business tourism. It is thanks to these assets that this year’s trade fair will involve more than 170 companies.

Along with Polish Exhibitors there will be 90 foreign companies from the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Switzerland, UK, Italy, and even China and Brazil presenting their achievements.

Second, KOMPOZYT-EXPO® creates trends The KOMPOZYT-EXPO® Trade Fair is a large and excellent platform for the exchange of information but apart from your chance to establish valuable business contacts you will also be able to participate in a carefully planned knowledge-based programme, in which you will certainly become convinced that those who call composites the material of the future do not exaggerate at all. This year’s Trade Fair will also see the first presentation

in Poland of the latest invention by the LeichtbauZentrum Sachsen GmbH and ThyssenKrupp AG engineers, who will try to persuade us that their super ecological car InEco® Concept, made of ultra-light composite materials such as carbon fibre and carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) is really the future of the motor industry. And this is not the only composite vehicle that you will be able to admire at the two-day trade fair. A single electric micro-vehicle for use in urban space, made by Innovative Mobility Automotive (IMA), together with some of the leading suppliers in the automotive industry, will be also presented in Krakow this year. Its world premiere took place in March 2013 during the prestigious Motor Show Trade Fair in Geneva. And last but not least of our attractions is the hull of a boat powered by solar energy, made by CREE YACHT for the next year’s World Cup Dong Energy 2014 in the Netherlands.

The hull is made of carbon fibre with spacers in infusion technology.

Third, expert knowledge The Trade Fair will be accompanied by an extensive programme of seminars and lectures by the experts from Poland and abroad, who will discuss the issues related to the use of active thermography in non-destructive testing of composites, modern technologies based on the use of closed mould resins and their application in the pultrusion process, the use of TPT (thin ply technology) technology in the manufacture of composites, as well as the light and fire-resistant composites.

Introduction Composites combine various constituent materials that are combined to produce desired physical properties. It is widely accepted that composites are materials for the 21st century.

Modern engineering structures make a use of composites due to high strength and stiffness, low weight and good fatigue life. The properties of these materials can be combined with the benefits of design freedom offered by enormous variations in composition and reinforcement. Application of composites are widespread and include examples of large structures such as airplanes or wind turbines, medium size structures such as cars or boats and various smaller structural elements (e.g. shafts, beams, plates). It is inevitable that the application of composites and wider use of damage-tolerant design concepts will require reliable methods for quality control and damage monitoring to maintain structural integrity.

Recent years have shown a number of new, advanced technologies that can be used for damage detection in composites structures. Some research laboratory developments are ready for field applications. This is particularly relevant to vibrothermography and laser vibrometry.

Other methods - such as nonlinear acoustics offer the potential for future applications.

Vibrothermography Thermography is a family of Nondestructive Testing (NDT) methods based on temperature measurements to reveal structural damage. All thermographic methods can be divided into two major groups, i.e. passive and active approaches. Passive methods rely on temperature measurements without introducing any external excitation. These methods are typically qualitative and provide global information on potential anomalies. In contrast, active methods require external or internal excitation and provide enough sensitivity for NDT applications.

Vibrothermography is a special deployment of active thermography that uses mechanical vibration excitation. The principle of operation of the method can be described as follows: periodic stress waves introduced to a test structure cause energy dissipation at discontinuities (e.g. delaminations, cracks) by conversion of mechanical energy into thermal energy generating heat. Thus, the heat source in vibrothermography, unlike in other thermographic techniques,

10

is the discontinuity itself, which makes the identification of defects simpler. Heat generated at discontinuities propagates to the surface where the temperature change is measured by a sensitive infrared camera. The process is illustrated schematically in Figure 1

Figure 1. Vibrothermography – principle of operation.

Vibrothermography is very well suited for materials with intermediate thermal diffusivity values (the ratio of thermal conductivity to mass density and specific heat capacity of a material) as for example carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites.

To demonstrate the effectiveness of the method, experimental testing was performed on a layered composite plate made of carbon epoxy prepreg. The ply stacking sequence was [0,45,45,0]. The plate has been damaged in a with low velocity impact event which resulted in matrix and fiber cracking in the vicinity of the impact location. The measurement was performed with the vibrothermographic test system from MONIT SHM company. Ultrasonic excitation at 35 kHz was delivered to the structure for 3 seconds at 20% maximum output power of the amplifier.

t = 0 sec

The data was post processed using the ThermoAnalysis software from MONIT SHM company. Figure 2 left presents the thermal image acquired before applying ultrasonic excitation and Figure 2 right presents the thermal image acquired 3 seconds after applying ultrasonic excitation. The damaged area can be clearly identified on the right image.

Laser Vibrometry In thin plate-like structures elastic waves can propagate in the form of Lamb waves and the methods making use of these type of guided waves are one of the most often proposed local methods in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM).

Typically the excitation and acquisition of Lamb waves is done with piezoceramic transducers.

A drawback of this approach is that a significant number of actuator/sensor transducers are required for monitoring large structures. This is labor intensive, slow and costly. From the logistic point of view, it is not practical to cover an aircraft or wind turbine with many thousands of bonded or embedded transducers. Therefore laser vibrometry becomes increasingly popular. Laser vibrometers can overcome many difficulties associated with Lamb wave damage detection techniques. Figure 3 illustrates the application of a non-contact, multi-point scanning laser vibrometer for structural damage detection. Lamb waves from a piezoceramic transducer are sensed using a scanning laser vibrometer. The scanning vibrometer covers the complete optically-accessible surface with a high density of sample points. At each sample point, the out of plane vibration is measured. Using three scanning heads simultaneously the measurement of in-plane vibration components is also possible. These measure-

ments are assembled and visualized for easier interpretation of the results.

Figure 3. Test setup for scanning laser vibrometer based Lamb wave measurements.

Example of damage detected in a composite specimen using Lamb wave monitoring is shown in Figure 4. A layered composite prepreg plate of 2 mm thickness was excited by wave packets generated by a piezoceramic transducer operating at 100 kHz central frequency. Vibration signals were acquired by the Polytec PSV-400 scanning laser vibrometer system. These results show that structural damage can be identified clearly by locally increased out of plane vibration amplitude (e.g. delamination in Figure 4).

Nonlinear Acoustics In the recent years there has been a significant growth of interest in non-linear, vibro-acoustic damage detection methods. The reason for this interest is higher sensitivity of these methods, compared to their linear counterparts. Non-linear damage detection methods are based on completely different phenomena than linear techniques. Classical linear methods are based on the well-known laws of physics related to reflection, scattering, attenuation or mode conversion of ultrasonic waves propagating in media. However, these methods can detect and localize relatively large damage severities that are comparable with wavelengths . Non-linear vibro-acoustic methods are based on completely different phenomenon.

One of the common features of many non-linear

methods is the assumption of a non-linear form of the Hook’s law due to damage. The non-linear form of Hook’s law causes a distortion in a signal response of structure excited harmonically by acoustic wave. Various nonlinear features can be observed in ultrasonic responses as a result of damage-related nonlinear phenomena. Examples of these features include: higher and subharmonics generation, modulations, modulation transfer, hysteretic behavior, memory effects or energy dissipation. Non-linear acoustics is particularly attractive for contact-type damage detection such as fatigue cracking or delamina-

propagating ultrasonic wave and low frequency excitation (Figure 5b). When monitored structures are damaged, spectra of response signals contain additionally sidebands around the main ultrasonic component (Figure 5c). The number of sidebands and their amplitude depends on the intensity of modulation and strongly relates to damage severity. Another example of nonlinear damage detection method can be Local Defect Resonance technique. The main assumption of the LDR method is that structural damage has a characteristic resonant frequency associated with it. The knowledge of this resonant frequency,

Figure 5. The principle of nonlinear vibro–acoustic wave modulation technique: (a) schematic diagram illustrating the method; (b) power spectrum of response signal for undamaged structure; (c) power spectrum of response signal for damaged structure.

tions. The principle of one of the nonlinear damage detection method (vibro-acoustic modulation technique) is presented in Figure 5.

Two excitations are introduced to the structure simultaneously (as illustrated in Figure 5a). When monitored structures are intact or undamaged, spectra of signal response exhibit only the two major frequency components corresponding to

being a function of damage size and geometry, can be utilized to reveal the location of damage in a nonlinear acoustics test. In practice, when a structure is excited with a single-harmonic signal at frequency corresponding to the LDR frequency, the amplitude level of higher harmonics in measured response spectra increases dramatically near damage location. Spatial mapping of measured spectral amplitudes, at frequencies equal to higher harmonics of LDR frequency, allows one to find damage location. An example of damage imaging in a layered composite plate based on the LDR technique is presented in Figure 6.

Summary The article has demonstrated various advanced methods that can be used for quality inspection and damage detection in composite structures.

These methods utilize non-contact temperature, ultrasound and vibration measurements. The methods presented are relatively straight forward and can be used to visualize potential manufacturing defects and structural damage due to operation.
