During the curing process of thick glass/epoxy laminates, a substantial amount of temperature lag and overshoot at the center of the laminates is usually experienced due to the large thickness and low thermal conductivity of the glass/epoxy composites. Also, it requires a longer time for full and uniform consolidation. In this work, temperature, degree of cure and consolidation of a 20mm thick unidirectional glass/epoxy laminate were investigated using an experiment and a 3-dimentional numerical analysis considering the exothermic reaction. From the experimental and numerical results, it was found that the experimentally obtained temperature profile agreed well with the numerical one and the cure cycle recommended by the prepreg manufacturer should be modified to prevent a temperature overshoot and to obtain full consolidation.

Recently, GFRP is well known as a structural material for the radome of aircraft. In this paper, we have observed the reflectivity of electromagnetic waves on GFRP reinforced with $\textrm{Al}_2\textrm{O}_3$ woven fabric. The result of the experiment has revealed that the reflectivity of $\textrm{Al}_2\textrm{O}_3$/GFRP composites is remarkably reduced compared with that of GFRP. And it also shows that the electromagnetic wave reflections are greatly influenced by the number of $\textrm{Al}_2\textrm{O}_3$ plies in a specific frequency band. These results are expected to be utilized for the technique of manufacturing a low-reflectivity composite structure.

The fiber-reinforced composite materials have been advanced for various applications because of its excellent mechanical and electromagnetic properties. On their manufacturing processes, however, thermo-curing inherently produces the undesired thermal deformation mainly from temperature drop from the process temperature to the room temperature, so called spring-back. The spring-back must be removed to keep the precision of designed shape. In this research, the spring-back of {glass fiber / epoxy}+{carbon fiber / epoxy} unsymmetric hybrid composites were predicted using Classical Lamination Theory (CLT), and compared with the experimental data. Additionally, using finite element analysis (ANSYS), the predicted data and experimental data were compared. The predicted values by CLT and ANSYS were well matched with experimental data.

Because of the wide variety of the composite materials, inherent variability in properties, and complex temperature and strain rate dependence, large strain behavior of these materials has not been well characterized. Large strain behavior under uniaxial tension is characterized over a range of temperatures and strain rates, and a modified simple linear viscoelastic model is fit to the observed data. Of particular importance is the strain rate and temperature dependence of these composites, and it is the primary focus of this study. The strain rate and temperature dependence is then used to predict limiting tensile strains, based on Marciniak imperfection theory. Excellent correlation was obtained between model and experiment and the results are summarized in maps of forming limit as a function of strain rate and temperature.

Tensile strength of the woven glass fiber reinforced PET (Poly-Ethylene-Terephthalate) matrix composite manufactured by rapid press consolidation technique was investigated and evaluated. During pre-heating, consolidation and solidification stages, the optimal manufacturing conditions for this composite were discussed based on the void content and tensile properties depending on vacuum condition. It is found that the effect of vacuum condition during preheating gives a substantial difference on the strength as well as microstructure. It is also found that the failure micromechanism shows several energy absorption processes enhancing fracture toughness.

The object of this study was to investigate the feasibility of solid-phase forming of the composites and to characterize the material behavior in the biaxial stretch forming. The materials tested contained 20%, 30%, and 40% glass fibers by weight in a polypropylene matrix. Biaxial stretch forming tests were performed at three forming speeds of 10mm/sec, 1mm/sec, and 0.1mm/sec and at four forming temperatures of $75^{\circ}C, 100^{\circ}C, 125^{\circ}C, and 150^{\circ}C$ to investigate effects of forming speed and forming temperature. The microscopic observation of a formed part was conducted at various strain levels to characterize the material behavior. The strain distribution on a formed part was measured and displayed on the farmed geometry with a contour display The material behavior of the composite in the biaxial stretch forming was strongly influenced by the forming conditions.

In the use of glass fiber reinforced plastics(GFRP) it is often necessary to cut the components, but the cutting of GFRP is often made difficult by the delamination of the compositions and short tool life. Experimental investigation was conducted to evaluate the chip formation of the glass fiber reinforced plastics during orthogonal cutting. The chip formation process, cutting force, and thrust force were studied. The chip formation processes were studied through the use of quick-stop device. Chip-tool contact areas were obtained with the use of the quick-stop device, and observed using optical microscopy after polishing. Cutting force and thrust force were measured through the use of the tool dynamometer.

An experimental and analyical investigations were undertaken to improve understanding of spring-back phenomena of chopped fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite sheet. The materials tested contained 20, 35, 40 percent by weight of readomly oriented glass fiber in a prolypropylene matrix. The simple bending tests were performed at temperatures ranging form 75 .deg. c to 150 .deg. c with 25 .deg. c increment and at punch speed of 1mm/sec and 0.01mm/sec. The spring-back angel measured in pure bending is compared with the prediction base on the analytical model. Good agreement between experimental and predicted results was observed.

The characteristics of abrasive wear on sliding speed of glass fiber reinforcement (GF/PUR) composites were investigated at ambient temperature by pin-on-disc friction test. The cumulative wear volume, friction coefficient and surface roughness of these materials on sliding speed were determined experimentally. The major failure mechanisms were lapping layers, deformation of resin, ploughing, delamination, and cracking by scanning electric microscopy (SEM) photograph of the tested surface. As increasing the sliding speed the GF/PUR composites indicated higher friction coefficient. The surface roughness of the GF/PUR composites was increased as the sliding speed was higher in wear test.
