INTEGRATED WIRES FOR STRAIN MEASUREMENT IN COMPOSITES CONSISTING OF CARBON-THERMOPLASTIC MATERIALS

Abstract

It is possible to integrate strain measurement elements below the surface in fast rotating composite parts consisting of carbon reinforced Polyetheretherketone (CFPEEK).<BR /> Such measurement elements are made of resistance wires insulated by a netting of glass fibres. This way it is possible to monitor large portions of a composite part up to the limit of loading.<BR /> In this article measurement results are published which were obtained by means of resistant wires embedded below the surface of the composite material. The wires are made from the resisting material ISAOHM.
