The problem of an orthotropic composite material with a central crack inclined with respect to the principal axes of material symmetry is studied. The material is subjected to uniform biaxial loading along its outer boundaries. The normal stress ratio theory is applied to predict initial crack extension behavior in cracked composite materials. The dependence of the crack extension angle with respect to the biaxial loading and the principal axes of material symmetry is discussed. Our analysis shows significant effects of horizontal loading, crack angle and fiber angle on the crack extension.

The stress intensity factors have been widely used in numerical studies of crack growth direction. However in many cases, omissive terms of the series expansion are quantitatively significant, so we consider the computation of such terms. For this purpose, we used the finite element method with isoparametric quadratic quarter-point elements. For examples, infinite square plate with a slant crack subjected to a uniaxial load is analyzed. The numerical analysis were performed for the wide range of crack tip element lengths and inclined angles. The numerical results obtained are compared with the theoretical solutions. Also they were accurate and efficient.

The problem of predicting the fracture strength behavior in orthotropic plate with a crack inclined with respect to the principal material axes is analyzed. Both the load to cause fracture and the crack direction of crack growth arc of interest. The theoretical results based on the normal stress ration theory show significant effects of biaxial loading and the fiber orientation on the crack growth angle and the critical stress. The additional term in the asymptotic expansion of the crack tip stress field appears to provide more accurate critical stress prediction.

The objective of this work is to develop the capability to analyze accurately the mixed-mode propagation of a crack in composite structures with elastic orthotropic material stiffness properties and anisotropic material strength characteristics. We employ the normal stress ratio theory to predict the direction of crack extension. It is shown that the angle of crack extension can be altered by the use of second order term in the series expansion is important for the accurate determination of crack growth direction.

이방성체의 평면내 직선균열에 대한 균열선단부근의 응력과 변위의 분포는 어떠한 균열체의 형상 및 하중조건에 대해서도 응력확대계수라는 하나의 매개변수로서 나타낼 수 있다고 하는 것이 파괴역학에서 보편화되어 있다. 그러나 많은 경우에 있어서 급수전개식의 이어지는 항은 정량적으로 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 항을 유도하고 이것이 균열진전방향에 미치는 영향에 대하여 검초하였다. 이를 위하여 단축하중을 받는 직방성균열체의 해석을 수행하며 재료는 균질이방성체라고 가정하였다. 급수전개식에서 2차항의 영향을 고려하기 위하여 균열선단에서의 응력의 분포를 재해석하였으며, 2차항의 사용은 정확한 균열진전방향의 결정을 위해서 매우 중요함을 보였다. 초기균열진전각도의 결정을 위해서 수직응력비이론을 적용하였다.

고온 초전도체 $Y_{1}$Ba$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7-y}$에서 Y를 Sm으로 치환시켰을 때의 자기 임계 전류밀도와 저항은 각각 30K와 80-160K의 온도에서 측정되었다. 그리고 X-선 회절분석 및 적외선 투과율 측정은 실온에서 수행되었으며 시료들은 고상 반응법에 의해서 제조되었다. 93K근에의 값을 갖는 초전도 전이온도 T$_{c}$는 치환양에 따라 거의 변하지 않았다. 시료들의 결정구조는 X-선 회절무늬로 부터 모두 직방정계임이 판명되었다. 적외선 투과율 측정에서 날카로운 peak들은 472.78-618.53$cm^{-1}$ /범위에 있었다. 이것은 특이할 정도로의 low-lying plasmalike edge와 낮은 에너지의 전자적인 여기가 존재함을 나타내는 것이다. 자기 임계 전류밀도는 $10^{3}$~$10^{4}$A/$cm^{2}$범위에 있었다. 전이온도 T$_{c}$에 상자성 불순물의 영향이 거의 없는 것으로 보아 123phase에서 Y가 고온 초전도성에 주된 역할을 하지 않음을 알수 있었다.다.

One of the most important matters in keeping membrane structures in healthy condition is to maintain the proper tension distribution over the membrane. However, it is not easy to know the real stress level in the membrane quantitatively after completion of the structures. Authors suggested measurement method that can measure membrane stress using sound wave, and have been holding experimental tests of membrane stress measurement that used the sound external excitation with sine wave and white noise. The concept of the method is the fact that measurement of resonance frequency by vibrating membrane having rectangular boundary by audible frequency can measure membrane stress indirectly. In this paper, through the experimental tests it is proved that the equipment can be used for not only the membrane material of type A but also for types B and C. In addition, it is proved that the developed measurement equipment is available to stably measure the membrane stress which exists in the membrane material of the actual membrane structures.
