The purpose of this study is to experimentally investigate the effect of water-binder ratio and fiber type on the compressive strength and tensile performance of fiber reinforced highly ductile composites. To achieve this, four different mixtures were prepared by varying the water-binder ratio and fiber type, and compression and tension tests were conducted. The test results showed that the influence of fiber type on compressive strength was minimal, however, the WB50 series mixture exhibited a 29 % lower strength compared to the WB40 series mixture, indicating a significant effect of the water-binder ratio. On the other hand, the effect of fiber type on tensile properties was found to be more significant than that of the water-binder ratio. Tensile strain capacity ranged from 2.9 % to 6.2 %, with PE series mixtures showing 1.63 to 2.14 times higher performance compared to PVA series mixtures. Additionally, the crack patterns of the PE series mixtures were superior than those of the PVA series mixtures.

Finite element method (FEM) is utilized in the development of products to realistically analyze and predict the mechanical behavior of materials in various fields. However, the approach based on the numerical analysis of glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) composites, for which the fiber orientation and strain rate affect the mechanical properties, has proven to be challenging. The purpose of this study is to define and evaluate the mechanical properties of glass fiber reinforced plastic composites using the numerical analysis models of Digimat, a linear, nonlinear multi-scale modeling program for various composite materials such as polymers, rubber, metal, etc. In addition, the aim is to predict the behavior of realistic polymeric composites. In this regard, the tensile properties according to the fiber orientation and strain rate of polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) with short fiber weight fractions of 30wt% among various polymers were investigated using references. Information on the fiber orientation was calculated based on injection analysis using Moldflow software, and was utilized in the finite element model for tensile specimens via a mapping process. LS-Dyna, an explicit commercial finite element code, was used for coupled analysis using Digimat to study the tensile properties of composites according to the fiber orientation and strain rate of glass fibers. In addition, the drawbacks and advantages of LS-DYNA's various anisotropic material models were compared and evaluated for the analysis of glass fiber reinforced plastic composites.

The study presents the ductility reinforcement effect of the RC bending member using the CFRP Grid as an experimental result. Experimental variables include a non-reinforced RC bending member (ORI), a bottom reinforced RC bending member (REB), and an RC bending member reinforced at the bottom and side (REBS). The experiment was carried out with four points bending test. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the maximum bending strength increased by 17-20% through reinforcement. In addition, the ductility index calculation results confirmed that the ductility index of REB and REBS increased by 2 and 3 times, respectively, compared to the ORI.

We investigated photoreflectance of semi-insulating GaAs with respect to modulation sources, that is, modulation beam intensity, modulation frequency, temperature, and thickness of sample. PR spectra by each modulation source turned out to be signals of low electric field third differential, and band gap values of sample were fitted by least square root method for Aspnes' theoretical equation.

Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers(CFRP) has widely utilized as a material for rehabilitation because of its light-weight, deformability and workability. Because CFRP is brittle material whereas steel is ductile, it is inappropriate to apply conventional design approach for steel reinforcement. For ductile material, the behavior of combined elements is on average of that of unit element due to the stress redistribution between elements after yielding. Therefore, the mean value of the stress of combined elements is equal to that of unit element and the standard variation is smaller. Therefore, although the design value can increase, it is used as constant value because it is conservative and practical approach. However, for brittle material, the behavior of combined elements is governed by the weaker element because no stress redistribution is expected. Therefore, both the mean value and standard variation of the stress of combined elements decreases. For this reason, the design value would decrease as the number of element increases although it is eventually converged. In this paper, in brittle material, it is verified that the combination of unit element with normal distribution results in combined element with weibull distribution, so the modifying equation of mechanical properties is proposed with respect to the area load applied.

Seismic design for bridge columns of the current Korea Highway Bridge Design Specifications which adopt full ductility design concept results in reinforcement congestion problems in construction site. It is due to large amount of confining steel is required even for small ductility demand which is a normal case in low and moderate seismicity regions like Korean peninsular. Therefore a new seismic design method based on limited ductility concept was proposed, which is called ductility demand based design method. It uses the new confining steel design equation considering ductility demand and aspect ratio of the column as well as material strength. The purpose of this study is to verify safety of the ductility demand based design method by the confining steel design equation. Eighty nine circular column test results are selected and investigated in terms of ductility factor and its safety. The safety factor for the circular column test results ranges between 1.11 and 3.98, and the average is 1.90. In this paper, the basic concept and detailed design procedure of the ductility demand based design method are also introduced as well as the investigation of the safety with respect to the major variables in confining steel design.

The reinforcing effects of ductile short-fiber reinforced brittle matrix composites are studied by, measuring flexural strength, fracture toughness and impact energy as functions of fiber volume fraction and length. The parameters of fracture mechanics, K and J are applied to assess fracture toughness and bridging stress. It is found that fracture toughness is greatly, influenced by the bridging stress ill which fiber pull-out is occur. For the reinforcing effects as functions of fiber volume fraction($V_f$ = 1, 2, 3 %) and length(L = 3, 6. 10cm), the flexural strength is maximum at $V_f$ = 1% and both fracture toughness.

벌크 비정질 합금 및 공정 조직 합금은 기존의 상용 합금들에 비해 월등히 높은 강도 및 탄성 변형 한계를 나타내며, 고내식, 고마모 특성 등 매우 독특하며 유용한 특성을 보인다. 하지만 상온에서 지극히 제한적인 연성으로 인하여 우수한 특성에도 불구하고 많은 분야에 활용이 되지 못하고 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 미세조직의 복합화를 통한 연성 부여에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행이 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Fe- 합금을 선택하고 비정질 형성능 향상을 위하여 Si를 첨가하였고 그 조성에 따른 미세조직 변화 및 기계적 특성을 관찰하였다. 기계적 특성 평가를 위해 압축시험을 실시하였으며, 미세조직 및 상분석을 통하여 기계적 특성과의 관계에 대해 조사를 하였다. 이때 미세조직 및 상분석 관찰을 위하여 TEM, XRD, SEM을 사용하였다.
