Thermal deformation behavior has been investigated for unsymmetric laminates composed of various kinds of material layers, such as stainless steel, aluminum, carbon/epoxy or glass/epoxy. The thermal deformations of unsymmetric laminates were predicted using the classical lamination theory and compared with those obtained from experimental measurement. In the case of unsymmetric laminate composed of stainless steel and aluminum layer, the experimental results were agreed well with the values predicted. But in the case of unsymmetric laminate composed of fiber composite layers, there was a considerable difference of thermal deformation between the prediction and experimental measurement, which may be from the change of material properties of fiber composite layers for temperature variation.

Since the fiber reinforced polymeric (FRP) composites are considered in next generation of space transportation systems, reliable thermal expansion properties should be well provided for structural design of composite materials. To obtain accurate mechanical behaviors at a cryogenic temperature, precise strain measurement and calibration must be provided. In this work, apparent strains (or thermal output) of temperature self-compensated strain gages were deliberately investigated for epoxy, CTBN modified epoxy and carbon fabric composite system from room temperature to liquid nitrogen temperature. Also, fourth-order thermal output curves were presented for the further calibration. The results showed that the thermal output is heavily dependent on test materials and a large amount of apparent strains were observed for the polymer resins.

Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) has received widespread attention in the field of civil engineering because of its superior durability and corrosion resistance. This article presents the damage mechanisms of a novelty composite called carbon nanofiber modified flax fiber polymer (CNF-modified FFRP). The ability of acoustic emission (AE) to detect damage evolution for different configurations of specimens under uniaxial tension was examined, and some useful AE characteristic parameters were obtained. Test results shows that the mechanical properties of modified composites are associated with the CNF content and the evenness of CNF dispersed in the epoxy matrix. Various damage mechanisms was established by means of scanning electron microscope images. The fuzzy c-means clustering were proposed to classify AE events into groups representing different generation mechanisms. The classifiers are constructed using the traditional AE features -- six parameters from each burst. Amplitude and peak-frequency were selected as the best cluster-definition features from these AE parameters. After comprehensive comparison, a correlation between these AE events classes and the damage mechanisms observed was proposed.

The carbon fiber reinforced/epoxy laminated composites were fabricated with initial fiber failures within the unidirectional fiber pre-pregnated ply. The fiber failures were made intentionally either parallel to and/or perpendicular to the unidirectional fibers within the ply. The pre-made clear-cut cracks were found to be healed partially after laminating process. The laminates were impacted with or without initial fiber failures within the laminates. The force versus deflection curves were compared. The partially healed laminates showed the reduced laminate stiffness as compared to those without any intentional fiber failures. The impact curves were compared with size and the location of the initial failures varied.

HAC/PVA계 MDF시멘트 복합재료의 수분안정성 및 기계적 강도향상을 위하여 불용성 폴리머류(폴리우레탄, 페놀, 에폭시수지)와 탄소섬유(길이3mm)를 1-4wt% 보강하였다. 그리고 가압성형법으로 제조한 복합체의 수분침적 기간별 강도특성(수분안정성)과 계면 및 기계적 특성에 영향을 미치는 폴리머와 시멘트의 가교반응에 대하여 SEM 및 TEM 분석을 통하여 관찰하였다. HAC/PVA계 MDF 시멘트 복합체의 섬유함량에 따른 건조 굽힘강도는 섬유함량이 증가할수록 치밀화 구조가 저하되어 비례적으로 감소되었다. 또한 불용성 폴리머류를 사용한 경우에 건조 굽힘강도는 섬유함량이 증가될수록 저하되는 반면, 수분안정성은 크게 향상되었다. 에폭시 수지를 첨가한 경우에 수분안정성이 가장 우수하였으며, 섬유함량 4% 첨가의 경우에 3일 침적강도가 95%, 7일침적시 87%강도를 유지하였다. 이 점은 폴리머와 시멘트의 금속이온이 가교반응을 일으켜 섬유-메트릭스간 계면 부착강도를 크게 개선되었기 때문으로 추정된다. 반면 인장강도 특성은 모든 불용성 폴리머류 첨가 수준에서 섬유 함량이 증가할수록 비례적으로 증가되었으며, 역시 에폭시 수지 첨가의 경우에 강도특성이 가장 우수하였다. 그리고 섬유함량 4% 첨가된 경우에 있어서 인장강도는 섬유함량 0% 대비 약 30~80% 높게 나타났다.

In the context of classic conical shell formulation, nonlinear forced vibration analysis of truncated conical shells and annular plates made of multi-scale epoxy/CNT/fiberglass composites has been presented. The composite material is reinforced by carbon nanotube (CNT) and also fiberglass for which the material properties are defined according to a 3D Mori-Tanaka micromechanical scheme. By utilizing the Jacobi elliptic functions, the frequency-deflection curves of truncated conical shells and annular plates related to their forced vibrations have been derived. The main focus is to study the influences of CNT amount, fiberglass volume, open angle, fiber angle, truncated distance and force magnitude on forced vibrational behaviors of multi-scale truncated conical shells and annular plates.

불연속 탄소섬유-에폭시 복합재의 저항발열 특성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 1, 3, 5 wt.% 불연속 탄소섬유가 함유된 복합재 시험편을 초음파 처리와 캐스트 몰딩(cast molding)을 이용하여 제조하였다. 시편에 DC 전류 인가시 발생되는 저항열에 의한 시편의 표면온도 변화를 적외선 카메라를 이용하여 측정하였다. 발열온도를 예측하기 위해서 유한요소해석을 수행하였는데, 실측된 온도와 부합함을 확인하였다. 탄소섬유의 함량과 인가전압이 증가할수록 발열저항에 의해서 발생된 열은 증가함을 확인하였다. 복합재 내에서 균일한 온도분포를 얻기 위해서는 탄소섬유의 분산상태가 중요하며, 대기온과 습도 등 실험환경이 발열온도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper deals with the experimental study on the hygrothermal ageing effect to the strength of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics (CFRP) materials for marine leisure boat manufactured by vacuum assisted resin infusion method. The experiments performed consist of tensile, flexural and shear tests according to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Korean Industrial Standards (KS) test methods. Test coupons are varied from uni-directional(UD, $0^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$), Bi-Directional (BD), and Double-Bias (DB) carbon fiber fabrics in conjunction with epoxy resin. The results of tensile test show that tensile strength reduces significantly while not the same degree of reduction is observed for elasticity modulus with respect to the existence of hygrothermal ageing effect. This implies that the tensile strain induced from external load holds steady values but ultimate strength values change widely under hygrothermal ageing effect. In case of the flexural test, $0^{\circ}$ UD shows more strength reduction than $90^{\circ}$ UD while BD has reduced values in both flexural strength and elasticity modulus under hygrothermal ageing effect. It is learned that the bending strain induced from external load and ultimate strength values are reduced with respect to hygrothermal ageing effect. Shear test performed only on DB materials, and the results show marginal reduction in ultimate strength and moderate reduction in elasticity modulus. This means that the shear strain varies more than ultimate shear strength with respect to hygrothermal ageing effect. The experiment conducted in this paper clearly demonstrates the differences in material properties of the CFRP for the consideration of hygrothermal ageing effect. Findings obtained from this experimental study can serve as a fundamental input data for the realistic structural responses of marine leisure boat built in CFRP materials.

본 연구에서는 탄소 나노복합재료 수지의 분산도를 평가하기 위해 전기저항 측정방법을 활용한 평가 예측 연구를 시도하였다. 탄소 나노복합재료 수지을 탄소섬유 토우에 떨어뜨려 탄소섬유의 배열 변화에 따른 전기저항 변화도를 이용하여 분산도를 평가하였다. 분산도가 균일한 탄소 나노복합재료 수지의 상태는 섬유 토우의 배열을 변화시키더라도, 섬유들 사이에 CNT의 영향으로 전기적 접촉면을 생성시켜 비교적 낮은 전기저항 변화도를 나타낸다. 그러나 불균일한 나노입자 분산상태의 수지는 탄소섬유 토우의 필터링 현상에 나노입자와 에폭시가 분리되었다. 탄소섬유의 전기저항 변화도는 크게 변화되며, 이러한 전기저항 변화도의 크기차이를 이용하여 분산도를 분석할 수 있었다. 나노복합재료 수지 적용 섬유강화 복합재료의 ILSS 측정 결과와 전기저항 측정법을 이용한 분산도 평가 결과간의 상관관계를 비교하였다. 균일한 분산도 상태의 나노복합수지를 이용한 경우가 섬유강화 복합재료화 하였을 경우 우수한 계면 특성을 확인하였다.

Interfacial and microfailure properties of carbon fiber/epoxy matrix composites were evaluated using both tensile fragmentation and compressive Broutman tests with acoustic emission (AE). Amino-silane and maleic anhydride polymeric coupling agents were used via the dipping and electrodeposition (ED), respectively. Both coupling agents exhibited higher improvements in interfacial shear strength (IFSS) under tensile tests than compressive cases. However, ED treatment showed higher IFSS improvement than dipping case under both tensile and compressive test. The typical microfailure modes including fiber break, matrix cracking, and interlayer failure were observed during tensile test, whereas the diagonal slippage in fiber ends was observed during compressive test. For both the untreated and treated cases AE distributions were separated well under tensile testing. On the other hand, AE distributions were rather closer under compressive tests because of the difference in failure energies between tensile and compressive loading. Under both loading conditions, fiber breaks occurred around just before and after yielding point. Maximum AE voltage fur the waveform of carbon or basalt fiber breakage under tensile tests exhibited much larger than those under compressive tests.
