Endurance analysis of the multifunctional structure (resp. ICOM/CCLAB) Task 9. Constitutive behavior of materials The necessary tests for the determination of the constitutive behavior of the examined materials were performed. Basic material properties were estimated. A database for CFRP, GFRP laminates, honeycomb and polyurethane foam cores was established. Tasks 10 & 11. Structural behavior under static and fatigue loads Five lightweight sandwich modules were delivered by LTC to ICOM/CCLab for static testing (longitudinal, transverse (and out-of-plane for honeycomb) moduli and strength). Specimens were instrumented with strain gages in order to record resulted strains under tensile loads. Shear strength was determined by performing 10° off-axis tests. Mechanical and elastic properties of the basic composite layer, the unidirectional laminate and the honeycomb, have been derived. A device has been prepared in IS for the application of bending loads for the mechanical testing, without crushing the solar cells (Figure 20). The quasi-static behavior of GFRP/PU foam-core sandwich panels with integrated solar cells (either c-Si or flexcell modules) was investigated. Both of them were encapsulated on the top skin of GFRP/PU foam sandwich panels. Mechanical (4-point bending) and thermal (sun simulation) tests were performed on the manufactured panels to assess their structural integrity and evaluate the cell encapsulation. The encapsulation did not considerably affect the efficiency of the cells. FE models were developed by CCLab for the simulation of the structural and thermal behavior of the examined panels. The activity on fatigue was cancelled due to lack of available experimental resources. Figure 19: Experimental characterization oh honeycomb and sandwich panel Ultralight Photovoltaic Structures, Y.

Task 12. Combination of environmental and mechanical loads The effect of heat (induced due to the solar cells) was evaluated after thermal testing. An increase of around 20°C of the surface temperature of the foam-core sandwich panels was recorded independently of the used solar cells. Task 13. Lifetime prediction and guidelines A fatigue life prediction methodology is under development. It is able to account for the effect of variable amplitude loading of complex stress states on the fatigue behavior of the examined material or structural component. The minimum input of experimental data, loading spectra plus basic information about the fatigue behavior of the material under constant amplitude loading patterns, is needed for the execution of the methodology. Initial comparison of the theoretical predictions to available experimental data proves the validity of the methodology.
