Preface

This report describes the tensile testing at room temperature of the OPTIMAT alternativematerial. The testing is a part of the deliverables in WP9 in TG3: Investigation of blade

material behaviour under external (extreme) conditions. Extreme conditions for

alternative materials

Based on the findings in phase 1, primarily from WP 8, a test plan has been prepared to

establish a deeper understanding of the effects of the most detrimental environmental

effects. These have been found to be elevated temperatures. A supplementary number of

additional tests on the reference material and an investigation of the behaviour of an

alternative material (glass fibres in an alternative resin is suggested) under the selected

conditions are carried out.

The static tensile test are carried out according to the ISO 527 recommendation with the

exception that the loading history are selected in loading-unloading sequences in order to

be able to follow the damage growth during the tests.

2 Material and Test Specimens.

The material tested is a Glass-Epoxy Multi Directional 5 x Biaxial 806 & 4 x Combi

1250 laminate vacuum injected with epoxy system E6/H6. The laminate is manufactured

by LM Glasfiber A/S, material specification number GEV 307. The test specimens for

the tensile tests are OPTIMAT type I0100 (1 direction) and I0190 (2 direction). They are

procured by the manufacturer and cut out according to ISO 527-4, type 3 with end tabs.

Test specimen geometry is shown in Figure 2.

In Table 1 and Figure 3 the theoretical values for the MD laminate are shown.

Calculations are performed using the software programme CompositePro with a E-Glass-

Expoxy laminate material.

Test Procedure

2.1 Tensile testing in 1 direction.The tests were carried out using an Instron 8533 hydraulic test machine

with mechanical grips. The load is measured using a certified 250 kNdynamic Instron load cell, UK 084. Longitudinal strain is measured using astrain gauge extensometer, Instron type 2620-600, #1747, 1mm, 25 mmgauge length. Transverse strain is measured using a strain gaugeextensometer, Instron type 2620-600, #1747, 1mm, 22.5 mm gauge length.The testing is controlled in position control and run at 2 mm/min. Theloading-unloading test sequences are controlled by Instron Wavemakerprogramme in a block sequence history shown in Figure 4.

Figure 4. Loading-unloading sequences for tensile test in 1-direction.

The test is controlled in the way that the position ramp is reversed when apreset load value is reached. The reason for not choosing a preset strain

value as target value is that the extensometers can jump when crackingoccurs.

The test data are sampled in files with a sampling rate of 5 Hz.

At a load level below failure load ( 60 kN) in the last sequence theextensometers were removed from the specimen in order to protect themfrom damage at the final fracture.

A typical stress strain curve is shown in Figure 5.

3 Data Handling.

The following properties are extracted from the test data:

Stiffness, Youngs Modulus:

According to the ISO 527 the tensile modulus are defined as the slope of the stress strain

curve in uniaxial tension between 0.05% and 0.25% strain. In order to measure a well

defined modulus, it must be assured that the strain limits between which the slope is

determined are correct. Hence, it is required, that the intercept point for the elastic line

must be origin (0,0) in the stress-strain diagram. See Figure 8.

Poissons ratio

Poissons ration is defined as the ratio between transverse strain and longitudinal strain.

It is calculated as the slope of the (T. strain L. strain) line in the same range as therange wherein the Stiffness is calculated. See Figure 8.

Secant modulus:

This is defined as the slope of the unloading-loading loop parameters and calculated as a

linear regression of all data in a loop. See Figure 9

Loop stiffness and Loop Poisson ratio

Loop stiffness and strain ration in the unloading-loading loop. Slope of stress-strain and

L-strain-T-strain curve between 0.05% - 0.25% strain from minimum strain in the loop.

Damping

Defined as the area of the normalized loading-unloading hysteresis loop, Figure 10.

Normalization values are mean and amplitude values. I.e.

Normalised value = (Value-(max+min))/(max-min)

Maximum-minimum strain in the unloading-loading loop

Maximum and minimum strains in the unloading-loading loop are found from the data.

All properties are automatically extracted from the data files in an Excel spreadsheet.

5 Failure modes.

Photographs of the failure modes of the specimens tested are shown in Figure 13 andFigure 14 (1-direction tests, and Figure 15 and Figure 16 (2 direction tests).

The failures in 1 direction can be characterized as overall splitting in the gauge area. The

failures are apparently not influenced by the gripping and tabs areas.

The failures in the 2-direction are localized. For specimens 1 and 2 the failure is directly

localized in the grip, whereas specimens 3, 4, and 5 fails localized close to the tabs and

grips. These failures could be affected by bending. Based on the failure observations, the

results from specimen 1 and 2 must be regarded as non-valid.
