Journal ArticleDOI
A study of short-beam-shear and double-lap-shear specimens of glass fabric/epoxy composites
TL;DR: In this paper, two experimental methods for determining the inter-laminar shear strength (ILSS) were compared: the short-beam shear (SBS) and the double-lap-shear (DLS) test method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of advanced cyanate ester/epoxy insulation systems before and after reactor irradiation
TL;DR: In this article, R-glass fiber/Kapton reinforced cyanate ester/epoxy blends with different CE content were investigated, and tension-tension fatigue measurements were performed in the load-controlled mode to simulate the pulsed operation conditions of ITER.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel radiation-resistant insulation systems for fusion magnets
TL;DR: In this paper, two new classes of insulation materials, an organic insulation system based on cyanate ester chemistry, and a ceramic insulation system that can be co-processed with the magnet, were developed for high radiation doses anticipated in Next-Step Option devices and future fusion reactors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical behavior of the ITER TF model coil ground insulation system after reactor irradiation
TL;DR: In this paper, a boron-free R-glass fiber reinforced tape, vacuum-pressure impregnated in a DGEBA epoxy system and partly interleaved with polyimide-foils (e.g. Kapton-H-folds), was used for the ITER toroidal field (TF) model coil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties and fracture behaviour of polyimide (SINTIMID) at cryogenic temperatures
TL;DR: In this paper, the elastic modulus, the ultimate tensile strength and the failure strain of a polyimide (SINTIMID) were measured at room temperature, 77 and 4.2 K, respectively.
