Performance of Flexible Warp Knitting Metal Mesh with Notch
摘要
Three different kinds of notch involving single edge notch （ SEN）, double edge notch （ DEN ） and central notch （ CEN ） were preset in flexible warp knitting metal mesh, and the tensile properties of notch samples were tested. Three kinds of notch samples＇ sensitivity were investigated through different notch lengths. Then failure process and tensile properties were contrasted and analyzed between intact and notch samples. Experiment and analysis results showed that positive Poisson＇s ratio effect gave rise to obvious waist binding and special inverted triangle loading area. All samples were sensitive to three kinds of notches. And notch sensitivity was closely related to notch form and notch length. The notch procession obviously deteriorated the mechanical properties of flexible warp knitting metal mesh. Sample with different notch lengths and breakage locations determined different tensile strengths that sample could bear. The fitting function of waist binding track satisfied the parabolic equation.
