This work focuses on the assessment of the damaged area originated by drilling of composite laminates. A batch of carbon/epoxy plates was cut into test coupons and drilled under different conditions regarding feed rate and spindle speed. The use of enhanced radiography allowed the determination and assessment of the damaged area. Besides the damage assessment, other mathematical functions were used, like fractals, to characterize the damaged area. Finally the plates were mechanically tested for correlation of results. |
