Fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites not only approach almost near to the strength of thermosetting composite but also has excellent productivity, recycling property, and impact resistance, which are pointed as weaknesses of thermosetting composites. The study for strength calculation of one direction fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites and the study measuring precisely fiber orientation distribution were presented. Need the systematic study for the data base that can predict mechanical properties of composite material and fiber orientation distribution by the fiber content ratio was not constructed. Therefore, this study was investigated what affect the fiber content ratio and fiber orientation distribution have on the strength of composites. Fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites by changing fiber orientation distribution and the fiber content ratio were made. Tensile strength ratio of $0^{\circ}$ direction of fiber-reinforced composites increased being proportional the fiber content and fiber orientation function as change from isotropy(J=0) to anisotropy(J=1). But, tensile strength ratio of $90^{\circ}$ direction by separation of fiber filament decreased when tensile load is imposed fur width direction of reinforcement fiber length direction.

복합 적층 판과 보강 재를 설치한 보강된 복합 적층 패널의 좌굴을 고려한 설계에서, 좌굴이 항상 구조물의 최종 파손을 의미하는 것은 아니므로 이들의 좌굴 및 좌굴 후 거동에 대한 정확한 이해와 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소 법을 이용하여 적층 메커니즘과 섬유 배향각, 적층 순서 등이 복합 적층 판과 보강된 복합 적층 패널의 좌굴 및 좌굴 후 거동에 미치는 영향을 체계적으로 해석하였고, 각 변수에 따른 좌굴 및 좌굴 후 거동 특성을 분석하였다.

Mechanical properties of static and dynamic behavior became important since the use of conical composite tubes in large structures such as aerospace, planes, and submarines as well as leisure goods such as bicycle frames, fishing rods, and golf shafts. In the past, the mechanical property prediction model for static behavior was studied using vibration, bending, and buckling. But there is a need to study how fiber orientation error affects mechanical properties of conical composite structure because the model assumes constant fiber orientation angle. The purpose of this study is to derive an equation that can predict the static behavior of conical composite tube for bicycle frames by considering fiber orientation error with respect to various design parameters.

In order to examine the accuracy of the intensity method, the fiber orientation-angle distribution of fiber-reinforced polymeric composites is measured using image processing. The fiber orientation function is calculated from the fiber orientation measured by the soft X-ray photograph. Theoretical and experimental results of fiber orientation function are compared for the composites with different fiber contents and fiber orientations. The intensity method is used for the experimental investigation and the measured fiber orientation function is compared to the calculated one. The relations between the measured and the simulated fiber orientation functions $J{\small{M}}$ and $J{\small{S}}$ respectively are identified. For the fiber length of 1.000mm and 2.000mm, it shows that $J{\small{M}}=0.83J{\small{M}}$. However. in general. the value of $J{\small{M}}$ decreases as the fiber length increases. For GFRP composites the relations between $J{\small{M}}$ and theoretical value J show that $J{\small{M}}$=0.73J for short fiber and $J{\small{M}}$=0.81J for long fiber.

하이브리드 복합재료 중에서 적충형태의 Al/GFRP는 단일재 알루미늄에 비해 피로특성, 비강도, 비강성 등이 매우 우수하여 Fig. 1과 같이 항공기 주익 구조에 주로 적용된다. 그러나 이러한 Al/GFRP 적층재 역시 장시간에 걸쳐 비행하중을 받게 되면 다양한 형태의 파손이 발생할 수 있다. 이 중 알루미늄층과 섬유층 사이에서 발생하는 층간분리는 Al/GFRP 적층재의 대표적인 피로파손 형태이며, 현재 이러한 파손은 다 방면으로 연구되고 있다.(중략)

In this work, the electro-magnetic interference (EMI) characteristics of PAN-based carbon fibers-reinforced composites are investigated with difference to manufactural parameters, i.e., fiber grade, fiber orientation angle, and laminating method. As a result, EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) of the composites greatly depends on a fiber orientation in composite angle. Especially, the fiber grade affects SE of composites in case of orientation angle of 0$^{\circ}$. Then the SE become greater as the change of electric character according to the arrangement directions, i.e., electrical anisotropy in the same constituent materials. This is due to the skin effect which is represented in the surface of electro-magnetic wave in high-frequency range. In all cases according to lamination methods, the composites represents SE of 83~98% over. Whereas, in symmetric and unsymmetric laminate structures, the SE decreases slightly as the laminate angles of composites increases. On the contrary. the repeating laminates structure shows the opposite tendency. Especially, 90$^{\circ}$ repeating laminate structure shows the SE more than 90% over the measuring frequency.

수지이동 성형공정에서 수지가 섬유직조망에 함침될 때의 투과계수와 수지의 표면 장력으로 인하여 유동진전면에서 발생하는 모세관압을 실험적으로 측정하였다. 두 종류의 섬유조직망에 대해서 가공율이 증가함에 따라투과계수는 증가한다. 수지, 섬유 그리고 공기 가 서로 다른 세 개의 상을 구성함으로써 수지의 표면장력의 영향을 받는 비정상상태의 투 과계수가 수지의 섬유직조망에 포화된 정상상태에서 측정된 투과계수보다 본 실험에서 수행 된 모든 기공을 범위에서 크다는 것을 보여주었다. 수지 유동진전면에서 발생되는 모세관압 은 기공율이 감소함에 따라 증가하였고 섬유직 조망의 기공율이 0.469인 경우에는 금형입구 에서의 수지주입압력의 25%에 해당되는 모세관압이 발생되는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 모 세관압을 가공조건으로 고려해다 한다는 것을 제시할수 있었다. 또한 본연구에서 사용된 임 의 배향 섬유직조망에 대해 실리콘 오일과 유리섬유 계면의 동적접촉각 측정을 통하여 섬유 배향 및 기공의 분포를 나타내는 형상인자의 값을 구함으로써 실제 RTM 공정에서 발생되 는 모세관압을 예측할 수 dLT는 기초자료를 제시하였다.

In this study basic equations of fiber orientations is cimpared with experimental results. It is found that fiber orientations of short fiber reinforced polymeric composite under compression molding are governed by slope of flow speed in x-y direction. Fiber orientation angle of mold is also found to increase with closure speed and the compression ratio. At the middle of the mold, the slope of flow speed is larger in x-direction than in y-direction. At the wall of the mold, the shope of flow speed in y-direction occurs due to the effect of friction, hence affects the fiber orientation. The effect of partial flow, which incurs y-direction orientation causes to increase the fiber orientation angle at the fore part of the flow.

In this paper, quasi-static crushing tests of composite circular tubes under axial compression load are conducted to investigate the energy absorption characteristics. Circular tubes used for this experiment are glass/epoxy (GFRP) composite tubes which are fabricated by the filament winding method. One edge of the composite tube is chamfered to reduce the initial peak load and to prevent catastrophic failure during crushing process. Energy absorption characteristics vary significantly according to the constituent materials, fabrication conditions, tube geometry and test condition. In tube geometry, according as inner diameter increase, unstable crush mode is caused by local buckling of delamination, but control of the fiber orientation should help composite tubes get stable crush mode.
