In this paper, a stress function-based approach was proposed to analyze the reduction of free-edge peeling stress in smart composite laminates using piezoelectric actuator under bending load. Electro-mechanically coupled governing equation was obtained by complimentary virtual work principle. The stress state was solved by the generalized eigenvalue procedure. The free-edge peeling stress of smart composite laminates was reduced by the piezoelectric actuation. The reduction rate of peeling stress in cross-ply composite laminate is larger than that in angle ply composite laminate.

The presence of elevated temperature can alter significantly the structural response of fibre-reinforced laminated composites. A thermal environment causes degradation in both strength and constitutive properties, particularly in the case of fibre-reinforced polymeric composites. Furthermore, associated thermal expansion, either alone or in combination with mechanically induced deformation, can result in buckling, large deflections, and excessively high stress levels. Consequently, it is often imperative to consider environmental effects in the analysis and design of laminated systems. Exact analytical solutions of higher-order shear deformation theory is developed to study the thermal buckling of cross-ply and antisymmetric angle-ply rectangular plates. The buckling behavior of moderately thick cross-ply and antisymmetric angle-ply laminates that are simply supported and subject to a uniform temperature rise is analyzed. Numerical results are presented for fiber-reinforced laminates and show the effects of ply orientation, number of layers, plate thickness, and aspects ratio on the critical buckling temperature and compared with those obtained using the classical and first-order shear deformation theory.

Ion sensitive field effect transistor (ISFET)는 용액 중의 각종 이온 농도를 측정하는 반도체 이온 센서이다. ISFET는 작은 소자 크기, 견고한 구조, 즉각적인 반응속도, 기존의 CMOS공정과 호환이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. ISFET의 기본 구조는 기존의 metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET)에서 고안되었으며, ISFET는 기존의 MOSFET의 게이트 전극 부분이 기준전극과 전해질로 대체되어진 구조를 가지고 있다. ISFET소자의 pH 감지 메커니즘은 감지막의 표면에서 pH용액의 수소이온이 막의 표면에 속박되어 표면전위의 변화를 유발하는 것에 기인한다. 그 결과, 수소이온의 농도에 따라 ISFET의 문턱전압의 변화를 일으키게 되고 드레인 전류의 양 또한 달라지게 된다. 한편, ISFET의 좋은 pH감지특성과 높은 출력특성을 얻기 위하여 high-k물질들이 감지막으로써 지속적으로 연구되어져 왔다. 그 중 Al2O3와 HfO2는 높은 유전상수와 좋은 pH 감지능력으로 인하여 많은 연구가 이루어져온 물질이다. 하지만 HfO2는 높은 유전상수를 갖음에도 불구하고 화학용액에 대한 non-ideal 효과에 취약하다는 보고가 있다. 반면에 Al2O3의 유전상수는 HfO2보다 작지만 화학용액으로 인한 손상에 대하여 강한 immunity가 있는 재료이다. 본 연구에서는, 이러한 각각의 high-k 물질들의 단점을 보안하기 위하여 SiO2/HfO2/Al2O3(OHA) 적층막을 이용한 ISFET pH 센서를 제작하였으며 SOI 기판에서 구현되었다. SOI기판에서 OHA 적층막을 이용한 ISFET 제작이 이루어짐에 따라서 소자의 signal to noise 비율을 증대 시킬것으로 기대된다. 실제로 SOI-ISFET와 같이 제작된 SOI-MOSFET는 1.8${\times}$1010의 높은 on/off 전류 비율을을 보였으며 65 mV/dec의 subthreshold swing 값을 갖음으로써, 우수한 전기적 특성을 보이는 ISFET가 제작이 되었음을 확인 하였다. OHA 감지 적층막의 각 층은 양호한 계면상태, 높은 출력특성, 화학용액에 대한non-ideal 효과에 강한 immunity을 위하여 적층되었다. 결론적으로 SOI과 OHA 적층감지막을 이용하여 우수한 pH 감지 특성을 보이는 pH 센서가 제작되었다.

Traditionally, additive manufacturing (AM) technology has been used to fabricate prototypes in the early development phase of a product. This technology is being applied to release manufacturing of a product because of its low cost and fast fabrication. AM technology is a process of joining materials to fabricate a product from the 3D CAD data in a layer-by-layer manner. The orientation of a layer during manufacturing can affect the mechanical properties of the product because of its anisotropy. In this paper, tensile testing of polymer-based specimens were built with a typical AM process (FDM, PolyJet and SLA) to study the mechanical properties of the AM materials. The ASTM D 638 tensile testing standard was followed for building the specimens. The mechanical properties of the specimens were determined on the basis of stress-strain curves formed by tensile tests. In addition, the fracture surfaces of the specimens were observed by SEM to analyze the results.

ISFET의 기본 구조는 기존의 MOSFET (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor)에서 고안되었으며, ISFET는 기존의 MOSFET의 게이트 전극 부분이 기준전극과 전해질로 대체되어진 구조를 가지고 있다. ISFET소자의 pH 감지 메커니즘은 감지막의 표면에서 pH용액 속의 이온들이 감지막의 표면에서 속박되어 막의 표면전위의 변화를 유발하는 것을 이용한다. 그 결과, ISFET의 문턱전압의 변화를 일으키게 되고 드레인 전류의 양 또한 달라지게 된다. ISFET의 높은 pH감지능력을 얻기 위하여 높은 high-k물질 들이 감지막으로서 연구되었다. Al2O3와 HfO2는 높은 유전상수, non-ideal 효과에 대한 immunity 그리고 높은 pH 감지능력 등 많은 장점을 가지고 있는 물질로 알려졌다. 본 연구에서는, SiO2/HfO2/Al2O3 (OHA) 적층막을 이용한 EIS (electrolyte- insulator-silicon) pH센서를 제작하였다. EIS구조는 ISFET로의 적용이 용이하며 ISFET보다 제작 방법과 소자 구조가 간단하다는 장점이 있다. HfO2은 22~25의 높은 유전상수를 가지며 높은 pH 감지능력으로 인하여 감지막으로서 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있는 물질이다. 하지만 HfO2의 물질이 가진 고유의 특성상 화학적 용액에 대한 non-ideal 효과는 다른 금속계열 산화막에 비하여 취약한 모습을 보인다. 반면에 Al2O3의 유전상수는 HfO2보다 작지만 화학용액으로 인한 손상에 대하여 강한 immunity가 있는 재료이다. 이러한 물질들의 성질을 고려하여 OHA의 새로운 감지막의 적층구조를 생각하였다. 먼저 Si과 high-k물질의 양호한 계면상태를 이루기 위하여 5 nm의 얇은 SiO2막을 완충막으로서 성장시켰다. 다음으로 높은 유전상수를 가지고 있는 8 nm의 HfO2을 증착시킴으로서 소자의 물리적 손상에 대한 안정성을 향상시켰다. 최종적으로 화학용액과 직접적인 접촉이 되는 부분은 non-ideal 효과에 강한 Al2O3을 적층하여 소자의 화학적 손상에 문제점을 개선시켰다. 결론적으로 감지막의 적층 모델링을 통하여 각각의 high-k 물질이 가진 고유의 특성에 대한 한계점을 극복함으로써 높은 pH 감지능력뿐만 아니라 신뢰성 있는 pH 센서가 제작 되었다.

It's essential to build an earth retaining structure at the beginning and end point of a tunnel constructed in a colluvium area. A large scale of colluvial soil may cause a problem to the stability of the excavation ground. An excavation in colluvium has different behavior characteristics from those in a sandy soil due to unstable elements and needs counter measures for it. There are few systematic research efforts on the behavior characteristics of an earth retaining structure installed in colluvial soil. Thus this study set out to collect measuring data from an excavation site at the tunnel pit mouth in colluvium and set quantitative criteria for the safety of an earth retaining structure. After comparing and analyzing the theoretical and empirical earth pressure from the measuring data, the lateral earth pressure distribution acted on the earth retaining wall was suggested.

A refined two-dimensional analysis method, taking into account the crack opening deformation, is proposed for the evaluation of stress distributions in transverse cracked cross-ply laminates. The interlaminar stresses which play an important role in laminate failure are evaluated using the concept of interface layer. A series expansion of the displacements is employed and the thermal residual stresses and Poisson's effects in the laminated are taken into consideration in the formulation. The stress distributions are compared with finite element results. The proposed method represents well the characteristics of the stress distributions. The through-the-thickness variation of the stress distribution is remarkable near the transverse crack due to the crack opening deformation. The interlaminar stresses have significant values at the transverse crack tip and the proposed analysis can be applied as a basis for the prediction of the induced delamination onset by using appropriate failure criteria.

Over two decades, many researchers have performed studies on strength size effects in composite laminates under tensile and flexural loads. It is well known that there is a tendency for the strength of fibre-reinforced composites to decrease with increasing specimen size. Under compressive load, however, little work has been done on the effect of specimen size to failure strength. This is due to the fact that compressive testing of composite is very difficult. In this paper, the effect of the test specimen size on the compressive strength of composites containing open hole was considered using T300/924C, $>[45/-45/0/90]_{3S}$. For sizing test specimens, the in-plane scaling method is used i.e., the change of two- dimensional specimen area in specimen width and gauge length. The results clearly show that there is a hole size effect in the finite width plates. In addition, the specimens which have the same a/W(hole diameter/specimen width) exhibit a tendency of size effect. In contrast, test results of the unnotched specimens did not show a clear strength size effect.

In this paper, the hybrid response surface method(HRSM) is proposed and examined. Hybrid response surface method calculate a approximate model repeatedly based on MPP coordinates. To verify the performance, probability of failure, MPP(Most Probable failure Point) and reliability index are calculated for nonlinear function and composite laminated plate by using reliability analysis method and compared with results by using typical response surface method(RSM). Probability of failure is calculated under the assumption of the nonlinear limit state equation and given failure criterion. The results of proposed method shows performance improvement in estimating the probability of failure.
