In this paper, laser ultrasonic rotation scanning method was proposed to inspect and visualize defects in corner section of curved composite structure. L-shaped composite specimen with defects in its corner section were inspected using laser ultrasonic rotation scanning method. L-shaped specimens had artificial defects at three different depths to simulate delamination damage. All artificial defects were detected clearly in different time-of-flight according to their depths. Inspection result showed that the proposed method is suitable to inspect round corner section of curved composite structure without any special tools.

최근 신소재인 선진 복합 재료 중 탄소 섬유 강화 플라스틱(이하 CFRP라고 한다. )은 비강도, 비강성이 높기 때문에 경량화가 요구되는 여러 분야, 즉 항공기, 인공위성, 원자로, 자동차 산업분야, 조선 산업분야 등 널리 사용되고 있다. 경량화가 요구되는 분야에 사용되는 구조 부재의 형상은 평판보다는 다양한 형태의 곡면 형상을 뛰는 챌(Shell)의 형상을 갖는다. 또한 이러한 구조물에 충격이 가해 졌을 때 곡면을 갖는 구조물의 충격_응답 및 파괴형태는 평판과는 다른 양상을 보인다.(중략)

One of the major causes of stiffness and strength degradations in laminated composite structures is the delamination between composite layers. In most engineering applications, laminated composite structures have certain curvatures. If the curved composite structure is subjected to bending that tends to flatten the composite structures, through the thickness stresses can be generated in the thickness direction of the composites. Under normal operation open mode delamination could occur at the sites of peak interlaminar stress. This paper describes a technique to determine radial direction stress of a laminated composite structure using a curved beam. Stacking sequence effects of interlaminar stress were studied. The radial location and intensity of the open mode delamination stress were calculated and compared with the results obtained from the analytical solution and finite element method.
