As composite is the light weight material whose durability and mechanical property are more superior than the existing general material. By taking notice of the composite with light weight, this study was about to investigate the static fracture characteristic of the bonded CFRP structure jointed with adhesive. Also, CFRP double cantilever beam with the variable of laminate angle was designed and the static fracture analysis was carried out. The laminate angles of CFRP double cantilever beam designed for this study were $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ individually. As the study result, the specimen with the laminate angle of $45^{\circ}$ was shown to have the durability better than those with the layer angles of $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$. It was checked that the specimen with the laminate angle of $30^{\circ}$ had the weakest durability among all specimens. The damage data of the bonded CFRP structure by laminate angle could be secured through this study result. As the damage data of bonded interface obtained on the basis of this study result are utilized, the esthetic sense can be shown by being grafted onto the machine or structure at real life.

Fiber reinforced composite materials have various advantages in mechanical and chemical aspects. Not only high fatigue and chemical resistance, but also high specific strength and stiffness are attained, and therefore, damping characteristics are beneficial to marine piles. Since piles used for marine structures are subjected to compression and bending as well, detailed research is necessary. Current study examine the mechanical behavior under flexural and/or compressive loads using concrete filled fiber reinforced plastic composite piles, which include large size diameter. 25 pile specimens which have various size of diameters and lengths were fabricated using hand lay-up or filament winding method to see the effect of fabrication method. The inner diameters of test specimens ranged from 165 mm to 600 mm, and the lengths of test specimens ranged from 1,350 mm to 8,000 mm. The strengths of the fill-in concrete were 27 and 40 MPa. Fiber volumes used in circumferential and axial directions are varied in order to see the difference. For some tubes, spiral inner grooves were fabricated to reduce shear deformation between concrete and tube. It was observed that the piles made using filament winding method showed higher flexural stiffness than those made using hand lay-up. The flexural stiffness of piles decreases from the early loading stage, and this phenomenon does not disappear even when the inner spiral grooves were introduced. It means that the relative shear deformation between the concrete and tube wasn't able to be removed.

에어로젤은 인류가 개발한 소재 중에서 가장 가벼운 고체로, 기공률이 90%이상이고 비표면적은 ~1000m2/g, 기공의 크기는 10nm 크기로 이루어진 나노기공 물질이다. 1931년에 Kisley가 물유리로부터 실리카 에어로젤을 합성한 이래로 실리카 에어로젤에 대한 연구가 가장 많이 이루어져왔으며, 단열소재, 흡음재, 체렌코프우주선 디텍터, 반도체의 초저유전소재, 유출된 석유의 정제, 촉매 등에 대한 응용에 대해서도 연구가 많이 이루어져 왔다. 그리고TiO2와 같은 광촉매 에어로젤 소재, 카본 에어로젤 소재등 다양한 나노기공 소재에 대해서도 연구가 이루어지고 있으며, 카본 에어로젤의 경우 나노기공과 비표면적을이용한 전기이중층 커패시터 (EDLC)에 대한 연구도 이루어지고 이다. 본 연구에서는 첫째로, 실리카 에어로젤에 대한 연구결과를 소개하고 이의 단열소재로서의 응용가능성에대하여 언급하고자 한다. 실리카 에어로젤 나노기공 소재의 경우, 기공크기가 10nm크기로 매우 작고 공기의 자유이동길이와 거의 비슷하여서 대류에 의한 열전달을 낮출 수 있으며, 낮은 고체함량으로 인하여 포논에 의한 열전달을 낮출 수 있기 때문에 단열소재로서 최고의 성능을 나타낸다. 하지만, 문제는 높은 기공률로 인한 기계적인 취약성이 문제이다. 따라서 이를 보완하기 위항 섬유로 에어로젤을 보강할 수 있는데, 이를통하여 에어로젤 나노기공소재와 섬유보강에 의한 복합화에 대하여 말하고자 한다. 또 다른 하나의 연구방법은유기-무기 하이브리드 나노기공 소재를 합성하는 것이다. 여기서는하나의 방법으로 MTEOS-TEOS의 하이브리드화와 초임계 건조공정에 의한 나노기공 소재에 대한 연구결과를소개하고자 한다. 마지막으로 카본 에어로젤 나노기공소재의 합성과 나노기공 구조의 제어 및 물성평가에 대한 것을 말하고자하는데, 본 발표에서는 레소시놀과 포름알데히드를 촉매에 의한 중합반응을 통하여 유기 에어로젤 소재를 합성하고 분위기에서탄소화 공정을 통하여 카본에어로젤을 합성하였다. 또한 금속 니켈을 도입하는 것에 의하여 탄소/니켈 복합 하이브리드 에어로젤 소재를 합성하고 슈퍼커패시터 전기화학 특성에 대한 연구결과를 발표하고자 한다.

본 고에서는 균질화법의 정식화를 이용하여 복합재료의 거시적 균질화된 재료상수를 구하고, 이 재료상수를 이용하여 거시구조물의 변형과 응력을 구하고, 이로부터 다시 미시구조의 응력분포와 변형도를 구하는 방법을 기술하였다. 주기성을 가정한 균질화법은 복합재료 구조물의 물성평가와 거동예측에 대한 매우 적절한 수치해석 방법이다. 균질화법은 이러한 선형변형의 문제뿐만 아니라, 내압을 존재하는 빈공간 소재의 물성, 기지재료와 강화재료 계면의 미끄러짐 등으로 인한 미세 파손현상 등의 예측이 가능하다. 그외에도 탄소성 대변형 거동 이론과 균질화법을 함께 적용하여, squeeze casting에서 발생하기 쉬운 계면분리나 파단 등의 미소결함과 같은 2차 성형성의 예측도 가능하다.

This study experimentally investigates the characteristics of Lamb wave propagating in a composite plate of varied thickness. In practical aerospace structures, there are so many parts that have varied thickness. Therefore, in order to employ the Lamb wave in a structural health monitoring of those parts, it is necessary to understand correctly the characteristics of Lamb wave for the structure with thickness variation. Thin surface-bonded piezoelectric transducers, which have great potential in integrated monitoring systems for structural health, were used to generate and receive Lamb waves. The predicted propagation velocity under the assumptions of ideal mode conversions was compared with the experimentally measured one. The validity of the results was supported by the frequency analysis of the signals. Consequently, the results show that the transient region is occurred when Lamb waves propagate across the region that thickness variation over some gradient exists.

Complex materials are widely used in aviation industries where lightweighting is essential because they have lighter properties than metals. However, composite materials can cause defects such as internal void formation, poor adhesive mixing, and non-adhesive parts during the production process, and there is a risk of micro-cracking and interlayer separation due to low energy impact. Therefore, a structural damage test is essential. As a result, structural integrity monitoring using FBG is drawing attention. Compared to conventional electrical sensors, FBG has the advantage of being more corrosion-resistant and multiplexed without being affected by electrical noise. However, interloggers measuring FBG are expensive and have a large disadvantage because they are made on the premise of measuring large structures. In this paper, low-cost interloggers were designed for use in unmanned or small aircraft using optical switche, WDM filter, and LTFs, and compared to conventional high-priced interrogator.

Glass fiber reinforced polyester (GFRP) composites are widely used as structural materials in harsh environment such as underground pipes, tanks and boat hulls, which requires long-term water resistance. Especially, these materials might be damaged due to delamination between gelcoat and composites through an osmotic process when they are immersed in water. In this study, GFRP laminates were prepared by surface treatment of UPE (unsaturated polyester) gelcoat by vacuum infusion process to improve the durability of composite materials used in underground pipes. The composite surface coated with gelcoat was examined for surface defects, cracking, and hardness change characteristics in water-immersion environments (different temperatures of $60^{\circ}C$, $75^{\circ}C$, and $85^{\circ}C$). The penetration depth of cracks was investigated by micro CT imaging according to water immersion temperature. It was confirmed that cracks developed into the composites material at $75^{\circ}C$ and $85^{\circ}C$ causing loss of durability of the materials. The point at which the initial crack initiated was defined as the failure time and the life expectancy at $23^{\circ}C$ was measured using the Arrhenius equation. The results from this study is expected to be applied to reliability evaluation of various industrial fields where gelcoat is applied such as civil engineering, construction, and marine industry.

The deployable reflector antenna consists of 24 unit main reflectors, and is mounted on a launch vehicle in a folded state. This satellite reaches the operating orbit and the antenna of satellite is deployed, and performs a mission. The deployable reflector antenna has the advantage of reduce the storage volume of payload of launch vehicle, allowing large space structures to be mounted in the limited storage space of the launch vehicle. In this paper, structural analysis was performed on the main reflector constituting the deployable reflector antenna, and through this, the initial conceptual design was performed. Lightweight composite main reflector was designed by applying a carbon fiber composite and honeycomb core. The laminate pattern and shape were selected as design variables and a design that satisfies the operation conditions was derived. Then, the performance of the lightweight composite reflector antenna was analyzed by performing detailed structural analysis on modal analysis, quasi-static, thermal gradient, and dynamic behavior.

Recently, application of composite materials such as fiber reinforced concretes(FRCs) and fiber reinforced plastics(FRPs) in conjunction with conventional structural components has become one of the main research areas. A proper use of advanced composite materials requires understanding their resistance mechanism and failure mode when they are applied to structures or their components. Particular considerations are given in this research to develop an analytical model which can predict the nonlinear flexural responses of bonded and unbonded prestressed concrete beams possibly having layers of different cementitious composite matrices in a section and/or FRP tendons. The block concept is used, which can be regarded as an intermediate modeling method between the couple method with one block and the layered method with multiply sliced layers in a section. In order to find a particular deflection point of a beam under load, solutions to the 2N-variables are found numerically by using approximate N-force equilibrium equations and N-moment equilibirum equations. The model is shown to successfully predict the flexual behavior of variously reinforced bonded and unbonded prestressed concrete beams. The model is also successful in simulating a gradually increasing load after sudden drop inload resistance due to fracture of one or more FRP tendons. This feature is useful in tracing the overall load-deflection response of a beam prestressed with brittle FRP tendons.
