Cold-formed steel studs that are being used as load-bearing members of wall panels for steel houses have a problem with their insulation due to the heat bridging of their web. Some additional thermal insulating materials should be used. To solve this problem, the new-concept hybrid stud, which consists of a galvanized steel sheet (t = 1.0 m - 12.0 m) and a GFRP panel (t = 4.0-6.0 mm), has recently been developed. An investigation on the structural behavior and the strength capacity of this new hybrid stud has been conducted so that it can be used in load-bearing wall panels of residential buildings. This paper describes the axial compression-torsion test results of the hybrid studs under both axial compression and torsion using ATTM. The main factors of the test were the stud length, the magnitude of the initial compressive force, and the loading method of the monotonic or cyclic loading. The torsion was applied increasingly while the initial compression was kept constant to the failure of the hybrid section. The advanced analysis results obtained form the finite element procedure that considered the material properties of the high-strength galvanized steel and the GFRP were compared with the test results for verification.

In a solid propulsion system, the rocket nozzle is exposed to high temperature combustion gas. Hence, choosing an appropriate material that could demonstrate adequate performance at high temperature is important. As advanced materials, carbon/silicon carbide composites (C/SiC) have been studied with the aim of using them for the rocket nozzle throat. However, when compared with typical structural materials, C/SiC composites are relatively weak in terms of both strength and toughness, owing to their quasi-brittle behavior and oxidation at high temperatures. Therefore, it is important to evaluate the thermal and mechanical properties of this material before using it in this application. This study presents an experimental method to investigate the fracture behavior of C/SiC composite material manufactured using liquid silicon infiltration (LSI) method at elevated temperatures. In particular, the effects of major parameters, such as temperature, loading, oxidation conditions, and fiber direction on strength and fracture characteristics were investigated. Fractography analysis of the fractured specimens was performed using an SEM.

Compared to metal, CFRP has excellent mechanical characteristics in terms of intensity, hardness, and heat resistance as well as its light weight that it is used widely in various fields. Therefore, this material has been used recently in the aerospace field. On the other hand, the material has shortcomings in terms of its extreme vulnerability to damage occurring internally from an external impact. This study examined the intensity up to its destruction from repeated use with the internal impact of a CFRP laminated plate that had also been exposed to external impact obtain design data for the external plate of aircraft used in the aerospace field. For the experimental method, regarding the quasi-isotopic type CFRP specimen and orthotropic CFRP specimen that are produced with a different layer structure, steel spheres with a diameter of 5 mm were collided to observe the resulting impact damage. Through a 3-point flexural fatigue experiment, the progress of internal layer separation and impact damage was observed. Measurements of the flexural fatigue strength after the flexural fatigue experiment until internal damage occurs and the surface impacted by the steel spheres revealed the quasi-isotopic layer structure to have a higher intensity for both cases.

최근 산업이 고속도화, 고능률화 및 고정멸화의 추세로 발전함에 따라 우수한 내마모성, 인성, 고온 안정성 및 내구성을 갖는 공구 및 금형을 요구하게 되었다. 그러나 이와같은 성질들은 어떤 단일 재료에서는 얻을 수 없으며 적당한 기판공구나 금혈위에 내마모성 보호피막을 coating함으로 비교적 저렴하게 얻을 수 있다. 화학증착법으로 TiC, TiN등을 증착시킬때에는 $1000^{\circ}C$정도의 반응온도가 필요하며 이러한 증착온도는 모재가 초경합금일때는 문제가 안되나 강재일 경우 모재의 연화와 칫수변화의 문제를 야기시킨다. 최근에는 플라즈마를 사용하여 증착반응온도를 $550^{\circ}C$ 이하로 낮추는 플라즈마 화학 증착볍(PACVD)이 대두되고 있다. 그러나 이 방법어서 는 뚱착하려는 금속원소가 TiCl4의 형태로 공급되고 있으므로 생성된 층이 염소를 포함하고 있다. 이 층에 잔존하는 염소는 층의 기계적 성질을 저하시키고 층내의 stress를 유발시킨다. 또한 HCI개스의 생성으로 인하여 펌프 및 장비의 부식이 촉진 된다 이러한 결점을 극복하기 위하여 금속유기화합물 전구체(metallo-organic precursor)로 $TiCl_4$를 대체하고자 하는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있으며 본 연구실에서 이에 대하여 연구한 결과를 소개하고자 한다. diethylamino titanium을 전구체로 사용하여 $H_2,\;N_2,\;Ar$분위기하에서 pulsed d.c.를 사용하는 MO-PACVD에 의하여 $150~250^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 Al 2024 기판에 TiCN층 형 성을 하였다. 전구체 증발온도는 $74~78^{\circ}C$의 온도범위어야 하며 고경도의 코탱층은 54% duty, 14.2kHz, 450V의 조건에서 얻어졌으며 duty, 주파수, 전압이 증가함에 따라 경도는 저하되었다. 이때의 표면 morphology를 SEM으로 조사한바 dome structure가 크게 발달되었음을 알 수 있었다. 본 실험의 온도 범위내에서 얻은 TiCN 증착반응의 활성화에너지는 7.5Kcal/mol이었다. 증착된 TiCN층은 우수한 내마모섣을 나타내었으며 스크래치테스트 결과 17N의 엄계하중을 나타내었다. 본 연구에서 변화 시킨 duty, 주파수, 전압의 범위에서는 층의 밀착력은 크게 변화하지 않았다. titanium isopropoxide를 전구체로 사용하여 Hz, Nz 분위기하에서 d.c.를 사용하는 MO-PACVD에 의하여 Ti(NCO) 코팅층을 SKDll, SKD61, SKH9 공구강에 형성시키는 공정을 개발하였다. 최적의 Ti(NCO) 코탱층을 얻기 위해 유입전구체 부피%의 양은 향착압력의 5%를 넘지 않아야 되고 수소와 젤소 가스비가 1:1일 때 가장 높은 코팅층의 경도값을 나타내었다. 수소와 질소 가스비가 3:7일 때 TiFeCr(NCO)의 복화합물 코팅층이 형성됨을 알 수 있었고 500t의 증착온도에서 얻은 Ti(NCO) 코팅층이 높은 경도값과 좋은 내식성을 나타내었다. 또한 이와같은 Ti(NCO) 코팅공정과 본 실험실에서 개발한 확산층만 형성시키는 plsma nitriding 공정을 결합하여 복합코탱층을 형성하였는데 이 복합코팅층은 고경도와 우수한 내마모성, 내식성 뿐만 아니라 10)N 이상의 뛰어난 밀착력을 나타내었다. 현재 많이 사용되고 있는 PVD법은 step coverage가 좋지 않은 점과 cost intensive p process라는 단점이 있다. MO-PACVD법은 이러한 문제를 해결할 수 있는 방법으로서 앞으로 지속적인 도전이 요구되는 분야이다.

This paper describes several performances and nondestructive inspection for deterioration due to forest fires in overhead transmission lines. After discussing corrosion mechanism such as atmospheric and galvanic corrosion for aged ACSR conductors and its detection for them are presented. Through impedance analysis of a solenoid coil, it is shown that the eddy current sensor may be available to inspect severe fault or local corrosion. As the solenoid coil changes its impedance when the test conductor is inserted into the coil, it can be possible to measure deterioration degree caused by forest fires. Tensile strength, extension rate and sensor impedance are tested for some samples degraded by artificial fire. As increasing blazed period to some extent, the strength of aluminum strand begins to be reduced remarkably, while galvanized steel strand holds the similar strength to the initial value, despite of appearing a little loss of zinc layer. In general, it is shown that the sensor impedance would be increased while the tension load of conductor is reduced and the extension rate is contrarily increased. Therefore, the sensor output could exhibit the changes of mechanical performances, and would be used to detect such deterioration caused by forest fire in ACSR conductors built on the ridge of mountains. Finally, it was verified that the solenoid coil could be applicable to obtain any crucial inform for serious deterioration due to forest fires.

Metal matrix composite(MMCs) have been rapidly becoming one of the strongest candidates for structural materials for high temperature application. It is well recognized that MMCs always experience at least one large cool-down from processing temperature before my significant applied service loading. Due to the large difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the fiber and matrix, large thermal residual stresses generally develop in composites. It was reported from many previous studies that the effects of thermal residual stress on mechanical properties and fracture behavior were much more complex and dramatic than conventional engineering materials. Therefore it is crucial to evaluate the effect of heat treatment which changes the characteristic of distribution of thermal residual stress in MMCs. Single fiber composite(SFC) test based on the balance in a micromechanical model is a quite convenient method to evaluate interfacial shear strength(IFSS) and the failure mode of composite. In this study the effect of heat treatment on IFSS and the microscopic failure mechanism of MMC is investigated by combining acoustic emission(AE) technique with SFC test. The characteristic of AE signal, IFSS and microscopic failure mechanism due to heat treatment condition is discussed.

유연성 투명 전도막은 현대 전자산업의 발전에 있어 필수적인 부품소재로서, 가시광선의 투과율이 80% 이상이고 면저항이 $100{\Omega}/sq.$ 전후이며 휘거나 접히고 나아가 두루마리의 형태로도 응용이 가능한 소재를 일컫는다. 이러한 유연성 투명 전도막은 차세대 정보디스플레이 산업 및 유비쿼터스 사회의 중심이 되는 유연성 디스플레이, 터치패널, 발광다이오드, 태양전지 등 매우 다양한 분야에 응용이 기대된다. 이러한 이유로 고 신뢰성 유연성 투명 전도막 개발기술은 차세대 산업에 있어서의 핵심기술로 인식되고 있다. 현재로서는 인듐 주석 산화물(indium tin oxide; ITO) 및 전도성 유기고분자를 사용하여 투명 전도막을 제조하고 있으나, ITO 박막의 경우 인듐 자원의 고갈로 인한 가격상승 및 기판과의 낮은 접착력, 열팽창계수의 차이로 인한 공정상의 문제, 산화물 특유의 취성으로 인한 유연소자로서의 내구성 저하 등의 문제가 제기되고 있다. 전도성 유기고분자의 경우는 낮은 전기전도도와 기계적강도, 유기용매 처리 등의 문제점이 지적되고 있다. 따라서 높은 전기전도도와 투광도 뿐만 아니라 유연성을 지니는 재료의 개발이 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 최근 이러한 재료로서 그래핀(graphene)과 탄소나노튜브(carbon nanotube; CNT)를 중심으로 하는 탄소나노재료가 주목받고 있으며 많은 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 열화학기상증착법(thermal vapor deposition; TCVD)으로 합성된 그래핀 및 CNT를 이용하여 탄소나노재료 복합체 기반의 유연성 투명 전도막을 제작하고 그 특성을 평가하였다. 그래핀과 CNT합성을 위한 기판으로는 각각 300 nm 두께의 니켈과 1 nm 철이 증착된 실리콘 웨이퍼를 이용하였으며, 원료가스로는 메탄(CH4)과 아세틸렌(C2H2)등의 탄화수소가스를 이용하였다. 그래핀의 경우 원료가스의 유량, 합성온도, 냉각속도를 변경하여 대면적으로 두께균일도가 높은 그래핀을 합성하였으며, CNT의 경우 합성시간을 변수로 길이 제어합성을 도모하였다. 합성된 그래핀은 식각공정을, CNT는 스프레이 증착공정을 통해 고분자 기판(polyethylene terephthalate; PET) 위에 순차적으로 전사 및 증착하여 탄소나노재료 복합체 기반의 유연성 투명 전도막을 제작하였다. 제작된 탄소나노재료 복합체 기반의 유연성 투명 전도막은 물리적 과부하를 받았을 때 발생할 수 있는 유연성 투명 전도막의 구조적결함에 기인하는 전도성 저하를 보상하는 특징이 있어, 그래핀과 탄소나노튜브 각각으로 제조된 유연성 투명 전도막보다 물리적인 하중이 반복적으로 인가되었을 때 내구성이 향상되는 효과가 있다. 40% 스트레인을 반복적으로 인가하였을 때 그래핀 투명 전도막은 20 사이클 이후에 면저항이 $1-2{\Omega}/sq.$에서 $15{\Omega}/sq.$ 이상으로 급증한 반면 그래핀-CNT 복합체 투명 전도막은 30사이클까지 $1-2{\Omega}/sq.$ 정도의 면저항을 유지하였다.

This paper presents an experimental study results on the crack control of flexure-dominant reinforced concrete beams repaired with strain-hardening cement composite (SHCC). Five RC beams were fabricated and tested until failure. One unrepaired RC beam was a control specimen (CBN) and remaining four speciemens were repaired with SHCC materials. The test parameters included two types of SHCC matrix ductility and two types of repair method (patching and layering). Test results demonstrated that RC beams repaired with SHCC showed no concrete crushing or spalling until final failure, but numerous hair cracks were observed. The control specimen CBN failed due to crushing. It is important to note that SHCC matrix can improve crack-damage mitigation and flexural behavior of RC beams such as flexural strength, post peak ductility, and energy dissipation capacity. In the perspective of crack width, crack widths in RC beams repaired with SHCC had far smaller crack width than the control specimen CBN under the same deflection. Especially, the specimens repaired with SHCC of PVA0.75%+PE0.75% showed a high durability and ductility. The crack width indicates the residual capacity of the beam since SHCC matrix can delay residual capacity degradation of the RC beams.
