| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of study is to construct design guidelines for composite materials with compatibility of strength / rigidity and light weight based on the structure of beetle upper wing, and develop high performance composite materials. The cross section structure observation and the uniaxial tensile test were carried out on the Heracles beetle upper wing, and it was found that the upper wing structure has a three-layer structure, suggesting that the load-displacement characteristics of the upper wing with different collection angles has anisotropy. Numerical analysis model simulating the structure of upper wing was prepared and its effectiveness was demonstrated by damage evolution analysis. Cellulose nanofiber (CNF) -reinforced composite materials was prepared, and uniaxial tensile test was carried out. It was revealed that the load-displacement diagram showed nonlinear behavior and the modulus of CNF-reinforced composites had the dependence on CNF additive amount.
