  3. 5th International Conference on Composites Testing and Model Simulation EPFL, Lausanne, 2011 1. INTRODUCTION • • Three-point bending tests of cross-ply laminate strips are proposed for • determining transverse compressive strength. • • Stress state has been obtained based on the hypothesis of the Classical • Beam Theory (CBT) • • An adequate configuration has been obtained by imposing the condition • of maximum ratio between compressive stresses at 90º layer and tensile • stresses at 0º layers. • • Three-point bending tests with different thicknesses and spans have • been carried out.

  4. 5th International Conference on Composites Testing and Model Simulation EPFL, Lausanne, 2011 2. ANALYTICAL APPROACH MAIN HIPOTHESES • • Longitudinal strain on x axis ex is a linear function of z, • where the reference of z coordinate is at the midplane. • • The only non vanishing stress components in each ply are sx and ts. • • Each ply is linearly elastic.

  9. 5th International Conference on Composites Testing and Model Simulation EPFL, Lausanne, 2011 3. OPTIMAL CONFIGURATION CONDITIONS IMPOSED FOR OPTIMAL CONFIGURATION • • Neutral axis has to be located as close as possible to the bottom • part of 90º layer in order to avoid tensile stresses at 90º layer. • • Maximum thermal stresses must be lower than transverse strength in order to avoid premature failures in 90º layer. • • Maximum tensile stresses at 0º layer must be lower than tensile strength.

  18. 5th International Conference on Composites Testing and Model Simulation EPFL, Lausanne, 2011 6. CONCLUSIONS • • Optimal cross-ply configuration for determining transverse compressive • strength by three-point bending only depends on the relation • between transverse and longitudinal modulus. • • For optimal configuration of a given material the ratio between maximum • stresses at 90º and 0º layers are maximum and only depends on • the relation between transverse and longitudinal modulus. • • Transverse compressive strength values are very similar between them. • • The appearance of damage agrees well with the transverse compressive • failure related to end-loaded compression tests. • • No tensile failure has been found prior to final failure.
