The
increasing need for lightweight and high-performance composite structures in
the aerospace industry increases the demand for fiber metal laminate (FML)
composite materials. This situation makes it necessary to improve existing FML
materials’ mechanical properties and develop production and assembly
conditions. In this section, the pre-production conditions of carbon fiber-reinforced
aluminum laminates (CARALL) and glass laminate aluminum reinforced epoxy
(GLARE) composites, which are currently under development, are evaluated. The
effects of the metal group and fiber type on mechanical properties are
presented. In addition to the traditional thermoset-based FML, the forming
capabilities and mechanical properties of the new-generation
thermoplastic-based fiber metal laminate (TFML) are also discussed. The effects
of nanoparticles on the mechanical properties of FML were evaluated. FML
production technologies are presented in detail. In FML composites, drilling is
a common post-production joining method, as is the assembly of fiber-reinforced
polymer (FRP) composite and metallic stacks. For this reason, the manufacturing
processes required for assembling FML composites have been examined, and the
drilling process has been comprehensively evaluated.
