Abstract

Aiming at revealing effect of ply orientations on energy-absorbing characteristics of T700/3234 composite thin-walled circular tubes under axial compression, the material properties were measured and quasi-static axial crush tests of thin-walled circular tubes were performed.The finite element model and analysis method of the composite tube were validated by comparing the experimental results of peak load and specific energy absorption of composite thin-walled circular tubes under axial compression.Based on the validated finite element model and analysis method, effect of ply orientations on energy-absorbing characteristics of composite thin-walled circular tubes under axial compression was discussed.The results show that the SEA increase almost linearly first, and then decreases to a certain extent with the ply orientations increase for composite thin-walled circular tubes under quasi-static axial compression.The initial peak load is the lowest and load efficiency is the highest when ply orientation is relatively ±45°, and it is easier to achieve progressive failure energy absorption stage.The research results can be used as a reference for the design of composite fiber plies and the finite element modeling of thin-walled composite structures.
