Fuzzy logic model for the prediction failure analysis of composite plates under various cure temperatures

Abstract

In this study, stress values were examined in pin/bolt connected composite plates which were applied preload and non-preload moment. Composite plates were produced with different curing cycles and geometric dimensions. Failure analysis of composite plates was carried out by applying different preload moments. The results obtained from experimental study were processed using fuzzy model. The results of experiments and fuzzy model were presented as a comparative. As a result of the comparison, it can be said that the initial stress values of failure were approximately determined using fuzzy model.
