Abstract

This paper aims to evaluate the effect of each material ingredient on mechanical and dynamic performance and to determine an optimal mixing condition of a rubber granule layer. To minimize the required number of tests, the test matrix was established by using the design of experiments (DOE). The tensile tests were then performed to identify the mechanical properties. Also, to evaluate the dynamic performance that the IAAF has required for athletics tracks for athletes' safety and balance, a series of impact tests were performed by using the so-called the "artificial athlete" machine. Finally, the response surface methodology was used to decide the optimal mixing conditions needed to achieve a high level of mechanical properties and dynamic performance.

본 논문은 육상트랙용 복합탄성포장재의 고무칩층의 최적 배합조건을 결정하기 위하여 기계적 및 동적 성능에 대한 각 구성요소의 영향을 평가한 것이다. 이에 소요되는 시험 횟수의 최소화를 위하여 실험계획법을 적용하였으며 이에 따라 기계적 및 국제육상연맹(IAAF)에서 요구하는 동적성능에 대한 시험을 수행하였다. 마지막으로 반응표면법을 이용하여 기계적 특성 및 동적 성능을 최적화하기 위한 배합조건을 결정하였다.
