Finite Element Analysis of Hemp Fiber Reinforced Cellulose Filled Epoxy Hybrid Composite

ABSTRACT

Composite materials are supposed to be used extensively as an alternate Al structure in aircraft, aerospace, and automobile applications. The main objective of this work is to carry out a finite element analysis (FEA) of Hemp Fiber Reinforced Cellulose Filled Epoxy Composites (HFRCFEC) was analyzed in the ANSYS multiphysics simulation software. In this analysis, the 3D models were designed using Creo, and it is incorporated in the Ansys for predicting the behavior of HFRCFEC and AA 6061. A plate is considered heterogeneous, and also effective moduli and strength properties differentiate the maximum stress and strain. It is found that HFRCFEC reinforced doors have withstood the maximum tensile strength of 53 MPa, the flexural strength of 153 GPa, the impact strength of 0.85 KJ/mm, and the compressive strength of 215 MPa, which were more superior when compared to conventional doors. The buckling load was carried out in Ansys to check the safe area and found that HFRCFEC has high buckling torque of 31153 (Nm) than the standard aluminum door buckling torque of 4403 (Nm). From the FE Simulation carried out in various conditions, it is found out that HFRCFEC composite exhibits superior properties to aluminum doors.

摘要

复合材料被认为是飞机、航空航天和汽车应用中广泛使用的替代铝结构. 本工作的主要目的是在ANSYS多物理仿真软件中对大麻纤维增强纤维素填充环氧复合材料 (HFRCFEC) 进行有限元分析. 在本分析中, 使用CREO设计三维模型, 并将其纳入ANSYS中, 以预测HFRCFEC和AA 6061的行为. 板被认为是非均匀的, 有效模量和强度特性也区分了最大应力和应变. 研究发现, HFRCFEC加固门的最大抗拉强度为53 MPa, 抗弯强度为153 GPa, 冲击强度为0.85KJ/mm, 抗压强度为215 MPa, 与传统门相比更优越. 在ANSYS中进行屈曲荷载以检查安全区域, 发现HFRCFEC的屈曲扭矩为31153 (Nm) 高于标准铝门的4403 (Nm) 通过在各种条件下进行的有限元模拟, 发现HFRCFEC复合材料具有优于铝门的性能.
