Recently, a great attention has been paid to the mechanical behavior of ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) film, which is widely used in current smart devices due to its excellent electrical properties and transparency. In this study, the reliability of ITO thin films on flexible substrates was investigated using bending test and bending fatigue test. According to the relative position of ITO and substrate, the experiment was conducted on both outer and inner bending conditions. Inner bending condition exhibited superior electrical stability compared to outer bending test. The electrical resistance during outer bending fatigue test significantly increased compared to that in the inner bending fatigue. The crack nucleation and propagation differs according to the stress state and they have a great influence on the electrical resistance. The crack morphologies were observed by scanning electron microscopy.

This study was investigated on the effect of degumming of cocoon shell, raw silk yarn and grey silk crepe by use of Papain, comparing with soap, soda and soap-soda. The obtained results may be summarized as follows : 1. Degumming loss, when the pretreatment was done, was completed by Papain more than by alkali. 2. Lousiness result of Papain degummed silk yarn was apt to be improved more than that of alkali degummed one. 3. As a result of tensile property test, elasticity and resilience of Papain degummed crepe were good compared to those of alkali degummed one. 4. Not only bending rigidity of Papain degummed crepe was reduced more than that of alkali degummed one but also hysteresis of bending moment was decreased in papain degummed crepe. 5. Handle of Papain degummed crepe was superior to that of alkali degummed one.

Stiffness-gradient stretchable electronic packages of the soft PDMS/hard PDMS/FPCB structure were processed using the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as the base substrate and the more stiff flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) as the island substrate. The elastic characteristics of the stretchable packages were estimated and their long-term reliabilities on stretching cycles and bending cycles were characterized. With 0.28 MPa, 1.74 MPa, and 1.85 GPa as the elastic moduli of the soft PDMS, hard PDMS, and FPCB, respectively, the effective elastic modulus of the soft PDMS/hard PDMS/FPCB package was estimated as 0.6 MPa. The resistance of the stretchable packages varied for 2.8~4.3% with stretching cycles ranging at 0~0.3 strain up to 15,000 cycles and for 0.9~1.5% with 15,000 bending cycles at a bending radius of 25 mm.

Folding endurance, bending fatigue and monotonic tensile tests of 4 kinds of Cu foil on flexible substrate was performed to investigate the relationship between folding or bending endurances and tensile characteristics. The repeated 5.3 or 2.0% strain was applied to Cu foil in folding endurance test or bending fatigue test while monitoring the electrical resistance. Elastic modulus, yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, ductility, and toughness were obtained by monotonic tensile test on the same samples. The Cu foil with higher toughness and ductility showed higher reliabilities in folding or bending fatigue. However, elastic modulus and yield strength did not show any relationship with folding and bending reliability. This is because the failures of Cu foil by folding or bending fatigue were closely related to the fracture energy of metal.

Alginate is a natural ionic polymer including numerous anionic groups and can be actuated by the ionic group under the electric field. The crosslinked alginate films were fabricated with CaCl$_2$. The thermal, mechanical and electroresponse properties of the films were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis, tensile and bending tests. The initial degradation and tensile strength increased according to the degree of crosslinking. Also, the swelling ratio of the films increased with decreasing degree of crosslinking and increasing pH due to free volume and electrostatic repulsion. The films actuated by an electric stimulus exhibited gentle and flexible action like a pendulum. In the electric field, the electric stimuli such as the applied voltage, ionic strength and kind of electrolyte solution had an effect on the electroresponse of the films. Alginate films with 5 wt% crosslinking agent showed the highest bending angle and reversible bending behavior. When the ionic strength of NaCl and KCl electrolyte solution was 0.1 M, the films showed the highest electroresponse. The bending behavior of the films increased with the applied voltage.

This paper studied the mechanical characteristics of boom structures by verifying the modeling method of representing unit cells of triaxial woven fabric (TWF) composites. The modeling of the representative unit cell obtained the ABD matrix by analysing the behaviour of tensile, shear, bending, and torsion using the periodic boundary conditions for the beam element. This study aimed to validate the ABD matrix by comparing the tensile analysis output from a finite element program with the experimental results from an MTS 810 machine. Additionally, the mechanical characteristics of a TWF composite boom structure were determined through bending analysis and experiments. The findings of this research are expected to be beneficial for developing structures using TWF composites.

Compression and bending test have been conducted to evaluate the mechanical performance of CFRC at several different temperature up to $2000^{\circ}C$ . Tools and several grips for the test at high temperature were designed to obtain mechanical properties of CFRP. A major cause of increasing strength according to increasing the density and the temperature were analyzed. SEM method was utilized to find out the damage and the fracture mechanism. The new simple equation for the L(span length)/h(beam height) of specimens and for the failure criterion on the 4 point bending were proposed.

In this study, Jute fibers reinforced polypropylene (JFRP) composites were manufactured by injection molding technique. In order to improve the affinity and adhesion between fibers and thermoplastic matrices during manufacturing, Maleic anhydride (MA) as a coupling agent have been employed. Untreated and treated surfaces of jute fibers were characterized using SEM and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). Physical properties like water absorption rate were studied. Tensile and flexural tests were carried out to evaluate the composite mechanical properties. Tensile test and bending test indicated that JFRP composites show higher strength and modulus than pure PP. In addition, strength and modulus were found to be influenced by the variation of MAPP content (1%, 2%, and 3%). Tensile fracture surfaces were examined using scanning electron microscope. It ensures better interfacial adhesion between fibers and matrix by increasing the percentage of MAPP.
