The fiber metal laminate is a type of hybrid materials laminated thin metallic sheets with fiber reinforced plastic sheets. The laminate has been researched or applied in automotive and aerospace industries due to their outstanding impact absorbing performance in view of light weight aspect. Specially, the replacement of side-impact beam as the fiber reinforced plastic has been researched actively. The objective of this paper is the primitive investigation in the development of side-door impact beam using the fiber metal laminate. First, the three-point bending simulations were conducted to decide the shape of impact beam using the numerical analysis. Next, two cases impact beam (pure DP 980 and fiber metal laminate) were installed in the side-door, and then the bending tests (according to FMVSS 214S) were simulated using the numerical analysis. It is noted that the side-door impact beam can be replaced with the fiber metal laminate sufficiently based on the numerical analysis results.

A multi-scale fatigue life prediction methodology of composite pressure vessels subjected to multi-axial loading has been proposed in this paper. The multi-scale approach starts from the constituents, fiber, matrix and interface, leading to predict behavior of ply, laminates and eventually the composite structures. The multi-scale fatigue life prediction methodology is composed of two steps: macro stress analysis and micro mechanics of failure based on fatigue analysis. In the macro stress analysis, multi-axial fatigue loading acting at laminate is determined from finite element analysis of composite pressure vessel, and ply stresses are computed using a classical laminate theory. The micro stresses are calculated in each constituent from ply stresses using a micromechanical model. Three methods are employed in predicting fatigue life of each constituent, i.e. a maximum stress method for fiber, an equivalent stress method for multi-axially loaded matrix, and a critical plane method for the interface. A modified Goodman diagram is used to take into account the generic mean stresses. Damages from each loading cycle are accumulated using Miner's rule. Monte Carlo simulation has been performed to predict the overall fatigue life of a composite pressure vessel considering statistical distribution of material properties of each constituent, fiber volume fraction and manufacturing winding angle.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the flexural behavior of high-strength steel fiber-reinforced concrete beams with compressive strength of 130 MPa. The paper presents experimental research results of steel fiber-reinforced concrete beams with steel fiber content of 1.0% by volume and steel reinforcement ratio of less than 0.02. Both of normal-strength rebar and high-strength rebar were used in the test beams. Modeling as well as compressive and tensile strength test of high-strength steel fiber-reinforced concrete was performed to predict the bending strength of concrete beams. Tension modeling was performed by using inverse analysis in which load-crack mouth opening displacement relationship was considered. The experimental results show that high-strength steel fiber-reinforced concrete beams and the addition of high-strength rebar is in favor of cracking resistance and ductile behavior of beams. For beams reinforced with normal-strength rebar, the ratio of bending strength prediction to the test result ranged from 0.81 to 1.42, whereas for beams reinforced with high-strength rebar, the ratio of bending strength prediction to the test result ranged from 0.92 to 1.07. The comparison of bending strength from numerical analysis with the test results showed a reasonable agreement.

At the modern industry, the composite material has been widely used. Particularly, the material of carbon fiber reinforced plastic hardened with resin on the basis of fiber is excellent. As the specific strength and rigidity are also superior, it receives attention as the light material. Among these materials, the carbon fiber reinforced plastic using carbon fiber has the superior mechanical property different from another fiber. So, it is utilized in vehicle and airplane at which high strength and light weight are needed at the same time. In this paper, the tensile property due to the fiber design is investigated through the analysis study with CT specimen composed of carbon plastic reinforced plastic. At the stress analysis of CFRP composite material with hole, the fracture trend at the tensile environment is examined. Also, it is shown that the lowest stress value happens and the deformation energy of the pre-crack becomes lowest at the analysis model composed of the stacking angle of 60° through the result due to the stacking angle. On the basis of this study result, it is thought to apply the foundation data to anticipate the fracture configuration at the structure applied with the practical experiment.

An analytical simulation of the flexural behavior of SFRC beam has been illustrated. Curvature distributions and crack opening in critical region were taken into account. Compressive and tensile constitutive models which express post-peak behavior of SFRC with stress-crack opening relationships were incorporated in simulating nonlinear flexural behavior of the beam. The model was able to predict test results with reasonable accuracy. Behavior of the critical section and effects of different factors m the flexural behavior of SFRC beam were investigated. Simple observation and statistical approach have been made in selecting most influential parameters in flexural behavior of SFRC.

In current study, a nonlinear model for the shear behavior of Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composite (FRCC) panels has been introduced. The model is dealing with the multiple micro-cracking mechanism of FRCC materials which induce the high-ductile tensile characteristic, the compressive strain-softening, and the shear transfer mechanism in the cracked FRCC.

여러가지 두꺼운 복합재료 구조물은 3차원 압축 부하 상태에 노출되는 경우가 발생한다. 이런 경우에 있어 서의 복합재료 압축 강도는 압축 평균 응력을 이용하면 예측이 가능할지도 모른다. 이번 연구 에서는 압축 평균 응력을 이용하여 탄소섬유 강화 복합재료들의 압축 강도를 예측하는 모델을 개발 하고자 한다. 이 모델은 압축강도에 영향을 주는 요소, 초기 misalignment를 고려하였고, 탄소섬유와 수지사이에 접합강도가 임계값을 초과할때 복합재료의 파괴가 일어난다고 가정한다. 또 여라가지 문헌들을 통하여 유압이 접합강도에 미치는 점들을 보여준다. 본 모델을 이용한 예측값들은 가해지는 유압에 따라 증가되며, 실험값들과 비교 분석될 것이다.

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) laminate sheets, which are lightweight with high strength, are commonly used to reinforce concrete structures. The bonding strength is vital in structural design. Therefore, experiments and analytical studies with differing variables (concrete compressive strength and tensile strength, the elastic modulus of concrete and FRP, thickness of concrete and FRP, width of concrete and FRP, bond length, effective bond length, fracture energy, maximum bond stress, maximum slip) have been conducted to obtain an accurate numerical model of the bond strength between an FRP sheet and concrete. Although many models have been proposed, no validated model has emerged that could be used easily in practice. Therefore, this study analyzed the parameters that influence the bond strength that were used in 23 of the proposed models (Khalifa model, Iso model, Maeda model, Chen model, etc.) and compared them to the test results of 188 specimens via the numerical results of each model. As a result, an easy-to-use practical model with a simple and high degree of expression was proposed based on the Iso model combined with the effective bond length model that was proposed by Holzenkӓmpfer.
