Abstract:
In relation to the increase in the proportion of composite materials used in the design of modern aircraft, the most acute issue is the issue of confirming the characteristics of materials during their testing. In this paper, the methods of testing composite materials used in the elements of the glider design are analyzed, and the estimated assessment of the methods analyzed is made.
Within the limits of the given work the comparative analysis of existing and perspective methods of carrying out of tests of ring samples from composite materials for the purpose of an estimation of their efficiency regarding definition of mechanical properties is carried out. The advantages and disadvantages of each method are determined.
Keywords:Composite materials, CM sample testing methods, performance evaluation, express method.
