    TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY EFFECTS ON COMPOSITE MATERIAL PROPERTIES ANSHUL and RAHUL ABSTRACT This paper discusses the different properties of composite materials under static testing condition to determine the effect of aging due to change in temperature and moisture content. Effects on tensile, shear, impact, stiffness and fatigue parameters are studied. For each property, application specific composite materials are taken into consideration with different stacking sequence and number of

    Composite Materials: How They Are Made and Used as Aircraft Parts. ANTONIO JACKSON Embry Riddle Aeronautical University Abstract The purpose of this study is to explore how some of the different composite materials are produced and how they are used as aircraft parts. The study seeks to answer the research question, why is the use of composite materials so attractive to aircraft designers and are the benefits of using composites worth trying to integrate them into existing aircraft designs? The

    Introduction Since the 1970’s, composite materials have been used in aviation in the form of composite aircraft, and the use of composites has only been expanding. Boeing aircraft from the past, like the 747 circa 1968, were generally made up of only 1% of composite material, whereas relatively newer aircraft, like the 777, which began its service life in 1995, jumped to 11% composites. By 2011, and the introduction of the 787 Dreamliner, the percentage of composites had risen to an astounding

    Composite materials comprise significantly greater percentages of airframe structural materials used throughout the aerospace manufacturing process. This increased usage has led many individuals within the Air Force (AF) community and Department of Defense (DoD) leaders to restudy the life cycle cost (LCC) models used to estimate the costs for most weapon systems. A series of composite affordability initiatives (CAI) have culminated in significant evidence over the last three decades which aids in

    clearly define the main points of this topic, in order to give the piece, and the readers, some context. Personally, I define sports as any physical activity, which involves some level of competition. For this discussion, I will be talking about how a materials improvement has made a great impact in the world of sports, specifically within the past century; therefore, the next important point to clarify is my definition of “impact”. When an object has an impact on another object, the initial object obviously

    of composite materials. There are many failure criteria’s available which has aided in analysing, few such failure criteria’s are maximum stress, maximum strain, Classic laminate theory, Hashin’s failure theory, Tsai-Wu failure criterion, and Tsai-Hill failure criterion etc. The research was conducted on failure ways and criteria for their manifestation in composite beams and columns [37]. They found that the initiations of the different failure modes are influenced by the material properties, type
