In the present study, free vibration analysis of multi-delaminated beams is performed. In order to investigate the effects of mu1ti-delaminations on the dynamic characteristics of multi-delaminated beams, the general kinematic continuity conditions are derived from the assumption of constant curvature at the multi-delamination tip. Frequency equations of multi-delaminated beams are obtained by dividing the global multi-delaminated beam into beam segments and by imposing recurrence relation from the continuity conditions un each sub-beam. The comparisons between the results of numerical analysis obtained by finite element analysis and those of present analysis give good agreement with each other. It is shown that the effects of multi-delaminations on free vibration characteristics of laminated beams could be used to detect their sizes, types and locations from the results.

In this study, the delamination analysis has been implemented to investigate the initiation and propagation of crack in composite laminates composed of orthotropic materials. A simple modeling was achieved by moving nodal technique without re-meshing work when crack propagation occurred. This paper aims at achieving two specific objectives. The first is to suggest a very simple modeling scheme compared with those applied to conventional h-FEM based models. To verify the performance of the proposed model, analysis of double cantilever beams with composite materials was implemented and then the results were compared with reference values in literatures. The second one is to investigate the behavior of interior delamination problems using the proposed model. To complete these objectives, the full-discrete-layer model based on Lobatto shape functions was considered and energy release rates were calculated using three-dimensional VCCT(virtual crack closure technique) based on linear elastic fracture mechanics.

In this paper, nonlinear transonic flutter analyses of a composite missile fin considering the effect of delamination are conducted. An effective modal analysis methodology is adopted and verified with the experimental modal test data for laminated composite plates with delamination. Extended version of the in-house computational aeroelastic analysis program with the transonic small-disturbance (TSD) code is used in order to predict the flutter dynamic pressure of the delaminated composite fin models. In the subsonic, transonic, and supersonic flow regions, nonlinear time-domain flutter analyses are performed for various delamination conditions, and aeroelastic characteristics due to the delamination phenomena are examined in detail.

A simplified method for determining the three mode(I, II, III) components of the strain energy release rate of free-edge delaminations in composite laminates is proposed. The interlaminar stresses are evaluated using the interface moment and the interface shear forces which are obtained from the equilibrium equations at the interface between the adjacent layers. Deformation of an edge-delaminated laminate is analysed by using a generalized quasi-three dimensional classical laminated plate theory. The analysis provides closed-form expression for the three components of the strain energy release rate. The analyses are performed for composite laminates subjected to uniaxial tension, with free-edge delaminations located symmetrically and asymmetrically with respect to the laminate midplane. The analysis results agreed with a finite element solution using the virtual crack closure technique.

Delamination reduces an elastic buckling load of the laminated composite structures and lead to global structural failure at loads below the design level. Therefore, the problem of the delamination buckling of laminated composite structures has generated significant research interest and has been the subject of many theoretical and experimental investigations. However, questions still remain regarding a complete understanding and details of the phenomena involved. In this paper an efficient finite element model is presented for analyzing the elastic buckling behavior of laminated composite plates with square embedded delamination using a solid element based on a three-dimensional theory. The solid finite element, named by EAS-SOLID8, based on an enhanced assumed strain method is developed. The study for elastic buckling behavior of laminated composite plates with embedded square delaminations are focused on various parameters, such as support condition and width-to-thickness ratio. Both graphs and buckling modes in this paper are good guide for design of the laminated composite plates with embedded square delamination.

구조물의 손상을 평가하기 위한 적용되는 태핑 테스트를 효과적이고, 정확하게 사용하기 위하여 적층판의 충격 시 발생하는 현상을 수치적인 방법을 이용하여 해석하였다. 구조물의 진동에 의해 방사되는 음은 구조물의 거동과 직접적으로 연관되므로 충격응답해석이 수행되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 층간분리가 존재하는 적층판의 해석을 위하여 층간분리 모델을 사용하였으며, 해머 형상의 충격체를 모사할 수 있는 효과적인 스프링-질량모델을 제시하였다. 또한 태핑 테스트 시 방사되는 음압을 Rayleigh 적분식을 이용하여 해석하였다. 예측된 음압이력과 시험결과와 비교하였으며, 음압이력과 충격하중이력에 손상이 주는 영향을 검토하였다. 방사되는 음압과 충격하중이력은 적층판에 존재하는 손상에 영향을 받는 것을 보였다. 결과적으로 제안된 음을 이용한 태핑실험은 복합재에 존재하는 손상을 검출하는데 신뢰성 있는 방법임을 알 수 있었다.

이 글에서는 복합적층판의 역학적 특성인 층간분리, 모재균열, 초기파손 후의 거동에 대한 문헌을 간단히 서술하고 그 특성을 살펴 보았다. 이상에서 살펴본 바와 같이 이방성인 층으로 구성된 복합적층 구조의 역학적 특성은 균질인 단일구조와 달리 각층의 재료상수가 달라층과 층 사이의 층간응력이 존재하여 층간분리현상이 발생하지 않도록 섬유방향뿐만 아니라 적층순서를 중요한 설계변수로 고려하여야 한다. 또한 모재균열로 인한 기계적 거동의 변화를 이해하고 초기파손 후의 손상을 고려한 해석을 수행하여 복합적층 구조의 응력해석 및 파손, 강도예측을 한다.

Carbon/epoxy는 기존의 금속재료에 비해 피로강도 및 기계적 특성이 매우 우수하다. 따라서 최근 튜브형태의 Carbon/epoxy 활용방안이 부각되고 있다. 그러나 Carbon/epoxy는 탄소재료의 특성상 고압, 충격 및 부식에 매우 취약하다. 또한, 장기간 고압피로 및 크리프에 노출될 경우, 금속재료에서는 관찰할 수 없는 층간분리(delamination)가 발생된다. 이러한 층간분리는 섬유방향과 평행하게 진전될 때 급격한 파손을 야기하므로 층간분리에 대한 메커니즘을 이해하고 그 방지책을 강구하는 것은 매우 중요하다.(중략)

The present study proposes a detection technique for delaminations in a laminated compoiste structure. the proposed technique optimizes the spatial distribution of harmonic excitation so as to magnify the difference in response between the delaminated and intact structures. The technique is evaluated by numerical simulation of two-layered aluminum beams. Effects of measurement and geometric noises are included in the analysis. A finite element model for a delaminated beam, based on the layer-wise laminated plate theory in conjunction with a step function to simulate ddelaminations, is used.
