In this paper, an improved four-node Reissner-Mindlin plate-bending element with enhanced assumed strain field is presented for the analysis of isotropic and laminated composite plates. To avoid the shear locking and spurious zero energy modes, the transverse shear behavior is improved by the addition of a new enhanced shear strain based on the incompatible displacement mode approach and bubble function. The "standard" enhanced strain fields (Andelfinger and Ramm, 1993) are also employed to improve the in-plane behaviors of the plate elements. The four-node quadrilateral element derived using the first-order shear deformation theory is designated as "14EASP". Several applications are investigated to assess the features and the performances of the proposed element. The results are compared with other finite element solutions and analytical solutions. Numerical examples show that the element is stable, invariant, passes the patch test, and yields good results especially in highly distorted regimes.

This study deals with displacement analysis of anisotropic folded structures with triangular elements and quadrilateral elements. When folded plates are analyzed, triangular elements as well as quadrilateral elements are needed for conveniences of modelling. However, using triangular elements is not a simple problem. A simple formulation is presented which allows a quadrilateral element to degenerate into a triangular element. Therefore it can easily be used for computational simplicity and avoided complexities on mixed use of triangular element and quadrilateral element. In this paper, a high-order shear deformation theory using only Lagrangian interpolation functions and drilling degrees of freedom for folded plates are utilized for more accurate analysis. Especially, various results of anisotropic laminated and folded composite structures with triangular element and quadrilateral element show the structural behavior characteristics of them.

In this paper, the group velocity dispersion curves of the $S_o$ symmetric mode in unidirectional CFRP plate was calculated as varying the propagating direction. The group velocity curve was obtained with the group velocities of the $S_o$ symmetric mode corresponding to 0.2 MHz-mm under the first cut-off frequency in the dispersion curves, and corrected by introducing the slowness curve. The velocities of the $S_o$ symmetric mode in the unidirectional CFRP plate were measured as varying the propagating direction and compared with the col?rotted group velocity curve. The measured velocities were good agreement with the corrected group velocity curve except near the fiber direction which was called the cusp region. It implies that the direction of the group velocities incline toward the fiber direction of the unidirectional CFRP plates when the propagation direction is not accorded with the principal axis. It is supposed that this phenomenon rerults from the preferential propagating the energy toward the direction with the faster propagation velocity.

In this paper, we study the bending and free vibration analysis of nano plate, using a nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen with a third-order shear deformation theory. This theory has ability to capture the both small scale effects and quadratic variation of shear strain and consequently shear stress through the plate thickness. Analytical solutions of bending and vibration of a laminated composite nano plate are presented using this theory to illustrate the effect of nonlocal theory on deflection of the nano plates. The relations between nonlocal third-order and local theories are discussed by numerical results. Further, effects of (i) nonlocal parameters, (ii) laminate schemes, (iii) directions of the fiber angle and (iv) number of layers on nondimensional deflections are investigated. In order to validate the present solutions, the reference solutions are used and discussed. The results of anisotropic nano plates using the nonlocal theory may be the benchmark test for the bending analysis.

In the present study, we investigated the effects or hydrostatic pressure and stacking sequence on the elastic work factor to determine compressive fracture toughness of graphite/epoxy laminated composites in the hydrostatic pressure environment. The stacking sequences used were unidirectional. $\textrm{[}0^{\circ}\textrm{]}_{88}$ and multi-directional, $\textrm{[}0^{\circ}/\pm/45^{\circ}/90^{\circ}\textrm{]}_{11s}$. The hydrostatic pressures applied for a $\textrm{[}0^{\circ}\textrm{]}_{88}$ case were 0.1 MPa, 70MPa, 140MPa. and 200MPa. The hydrostatic pressures applied for a $\textrm{[}0^{\circ}/\pm/45^{\circ}/90^{\circ}\textrm{]}_{11s}$ case were 0.1MPa, 100MPa, 200MPa, and 300MPa. It was found that the elastic work factor was not affected by the hydrostatic pressure and the stacking sequence. Also, it was found that the elastic work factor decreased in a linear fashion with delamination length.

The mechanics of woven fabric-based laminated composites is complex. Then, many researchers have studied woven fabric CFRP materials but fracture resistance behaviors for composites have not been still standardized. It also shows the different behavior according to load and fiber direction. Therefore, there is a need to consider fracture resistance behavior in conformity with load and fiber direction at designing structure using woven CFRP materials. In this study, therefore, the tensile strength and resistance for plain-weave CFRP composite materials were investigated under various different angle condition(load to fiber angle: $0^{\circ}$, $15^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$). Tensile strength and fracture toughness tests were carried out under mode I transverse crack opening load by using compact tension specimens.

In the composite waterproofing method in which a polyurethane coating waterproofing material is applied on the modified asphalt waterproofing sheet, the organic solvent is diluted in the coating waterproofing material in order to improve the workability. However, since the organic solvent is not volatilized before the curing of the polyurethane coating waterproofing material, the organic solvent causes dissolution of asphalt layer, thereby causing oil leakage. As a result, a polyamide film having a high dissolution resistance property was laminated on modified asphalt sheet, and through testing the dissolution resistance was visually confirmed and quantitative analysis of the polyamide film by SEM-EDX analysis was also used to confirmed the dissolution resistance of the polyamide film.

The impact stress and wave propagation of graphite/epoxy and glass/epoxy laminates subjected to the transverse low-velocity impact of steel balls are investigated theoretically. A plate finite element model based on Whitney and Pagano's theory for the analysis of heterogeneous and anisotropic plates taking into account of the transverse shear deformation is used for the theoretical investigation. This model is in conjuction with static contact laws. The basic element is a four-node quadrilateral with the five degrees-of-freedom per node. The reduced integration technique is used for shear locking associated with low-order function in application to thin plates. These two materials are composed of [0.deg./45.deg./0.deg./-45.deg./0.deg.]$_{2S}$ and [90.deg./45.deg./90.deg./-45.deg./90.deg.]$_{2S}$ stacking sequences and have clamped-clamped boundary conditions. Finally, the present results are compared with an existing solution and wave propagation theory and then impact stress and wave propagation phenomena are investigated.gated.

An attempt was made in this study to investigate the possibility of processing squid along with pork into an intermediate moisture food, as an acceptable new item in Korea. To obtain a palatable and low cost product, portions of mixture consisting of equal amounts of ground squid and pork were cooked in soy sauce for 20 min, soaked in glycerol for 20 min at $80^{\circ}C$, and then air dried for 90 min at $60^{\circ}C$. During storage for 42 days in saturated humidity incubator at $37^{\circ}C$, the total microbial counts of the products packaged in polyethylene (0.05 mm), polypropylene (0.05 mm) and plastic laminated aluminum foil were decreased from 230 per gram to 40, 20 and 10 per gram respectively. In another long range storage test of 6 months, the results paralleled the above trends. Even though the TBA value of the samples increased during the storage, it was not so serious as to damage on the organoleptic quality of this product. The results indicate that stored product was as acceptable as the freshly prepared one.
