Abstract

The results of testing samples made of T700 carbon fiber reinforced plastic with a stress concentrator in the form of a hole 14 mm in diameter are considered. Some of the samples were heated to a temperature of +100°C, followed by exposure to a static tensile load, with the remaining samples statically loaded at a temperature of +20°C. In the process of loading, information was recorded using the method of acoustic emission. At first, the samples were loaded statically up to 50 kN, which was 50% of the average breaking load. Then the load was increased in increments ΔP = 10 kN until sample failure. It was observed that the simultaneous exposure of samples to static and heat loads decreased the load capacity of the samples.
