Abstract

Processing of long-fibre reinforced thermoplastics with a discontinuous reinforcement of long glass fibres, especially by direct-processing, leads to inhomogeneous and anisotropic properties. Because of this, locally resolved characterisation of the material properties is necessary. Non-contact testing methods are required to derive these material properties. Locally resolving hysteresis measurement, full-field strain measurement techniques and thermoelastic stress analysis (TSA) are applied to an incremental step test and to a fatigue test. It is shown that there is good correspondence between the local TSA-signals and the locally measured values of the major strain. This correlation is valid not only for lower linear elastic load levels, but also up to nonlinear-viscoelastic levels. A model is presented to describe the correlation between the TSA-signal and the measured major strain.
