The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is an innovative aircraft that consists of
more than 50% carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP) due to these
materials' low weight and exceptional strength. Using COMSOL
modelling tools, engineers at Boeing research found that a metal
foil inserted in a CFRP laminate can provide lightning protection for
the aircraft structure. The purpose of this article is to explain how
this laminate can be improved to create multifunctional materials
that can protect the fuselage from lightning strikes while providing
vibration damping and sound absorption effects.

arbon fibre cannot mitigate the potentially damaging electromagnetic
effects of a lightning strike. To solve
this problem, an electrically-conductive
expanded metal foil (EMF) can be added
to the composite structural lay-up to rapidly dissipate current and heat in order to
ensure the lightning protection of CFRP
materials in the aircraft [1].
Carbon fibre coated with elastomers
can reduce the vibration and acoustic
effects. Japan researchers found that when
covering CFRPs with elastomers, the

damping loss factor changes from 0.01 to
0.100, thus improving vibration damping
properties [2].
A thermoforming technology was developed for multifunctional layers. Spray
technology can be more effective for shipboard and aircraft applications. A concept
combining a tough sprayed epoxy bottom
layer and a sound absorbing sprayed polyester top layer looks like a good alternative
to open-cell polyimide foam insulation
panels developed for the NASA [3]. Two
traditional insulation materials - an EAR
3/8" material and Pyrotech 3/8" SP150
tiles - are presented in works [4] and [5].
