With the wide application of fiber-reinforced composite material in aero-structures and mechanical parts, the design of composite joint have become a very important research area because they are often the weakest areas in composite structures. In this paper, the linear finite element analyses in which the pin of the composite joint was assumed to be the frictionless rigid body were performed and predict the strength of the mechanically fastened composite joint using the failure area index method. By the failure area index method, the strength of the mechanically fastened composite joint which has the specimen of different shape, hole size and stacking sequence could be predicted within 12.2%.

The physicochemical, rheological and sensory characteristics of Backsulgies added with dietary fibers-cellulose, pectin and wheat bran-were investigated. The maximum acceptable ratio of fibers was 10% for wheat bran or cellulose, 3% for pectin. As me results of physicochemical analysis, cellulose and pectin had larger water-binding capacity man wheat bran. Swelling power was increased with temperature increment. But the type of added dietary fiber did not make significant differences. The degree of gelatinization was measured by maltose content. The retrogradation of backsulgies was significantly delayed by the addition of dietary fibers. The retardation effect of dietary fibers for retrogradation of backsulgies was also proved by textural analysis and time constant determination of Avrami equation. Pectin had especially excellent delaying effect while me storage time extended. There were no significant differences in sensory characteristics between me backsulgi with no dietary fibers and backsulgies added with cellulose 3%, pectin 1% and wheat bran 3%. Therefore, we concluded mat cellulose 3%, pectin 1% and wheat bran 3% were me optimum addition ratios, which have the delaying effect of retrogradation, and which could be accepted as same as conventional backsulgies organoreptically.

In particle or short-fiber reinforced composites, cracking of reinforcements is a significant damage mode because the cracked reinforcements lose carrying capacity. This paper deals with elastic stress distributions and load carrying capacity of intact and cracked ellipsoidal inhomogeneities. Three dimensional finite element analysis has been carried out on intact and cracked ellipsoidal inhomogeneities in an infinite body under uniaxial tension and pure shear. For the intact inhomogeneity, as well known as Eshelbys solution, the stress distribution is uniform in the inhomogeneity and nonuniform in the surrounding matrix. On the other hand, for the cracked inhomogeneity, the stress in the region near the crack surface is considerably released and the stress distribution becomes more complex. The average stress in the inhomogeneity represents its load carrying capacity, and the difference between the average stresses of the intact and cracked inhomogeneities indicates the loss of load carrying capacity due to cracking damage. The load carrying capacity of the cracked inhomogeneity is expressed in to cracking damage. The load carrying capacity of the cracked inhomogeneity is expressed in terms of the average stress of the intact inhomogeneity and some coefficients. It is found that a cracked inhomogeneity with high aspect ratio still maintains higher load carrying capacity.

The strength and fatigue life of Satin and Twill-woven CF/epoxy composite(CFRP) have been investigated. Damage mechanism fatigue method has been used to assess fatigue damage accumulation. It is based on measured residual stiffness and residual strength of carbon-fiber reinforced plastic(CFRP) laminates under cyclic loading. Fatigue damage evolution in composite laminates and predict fatigue life of the laminates were simulated by finite element analysis(FEA) method. The stress analysis was carried out in MSC patran/Nastran. A modified Hashin's failure criterion di rmfjapplied to predict the failure of the experimental data of fatigue life but a Ye-delamination criterion was ignored because of 2D modeling. Almost linear stiffness and strength degradation were observed during most of the fatigue process. These stress distribution data were adopted in the simulation to simulate fatigue behavior and estimate life of the laminates. From the results, the predicted fatigue life is more conservatively estimated than the experimental results.

As science and technology has developed, human could be flourished especially at the aspect of agriculture and medicine. However, the traditional knowledge of them has stopped being used, which leads to extinctions of it. Korea National Arboretum had surveyed the ethnobotanical uses of Gangwon-do from 2006 to 2017. 522 taxa were defined as ethnoplants through 21469 sheets thanks to 355 respondents who composed 279 females, 73 males and three refused to answer. Analysis of ethnoplants had conducted to provide the excavation of the new plants for industries of agriculture and medication, as well as the evidence for protection of TK and benefit derived from it. Aster scaber Thunb. had been found as the most citated taxa by 0.6591 RFC figure, Pinus desiflora Seibold & Zucc. was found to have the extensive categories of use. Aralia elata (Miq.) Seem. showed the highest figure of CI value. In the index of RI, Pinus desiflora Seibold & Zucc. appeared again, as well as CV, cultural value. For evaluation of the usages of ethnoplants IAR figures are analyzed. The fiber has shown the biggest figure of IAR, despite the dyes are placed the smallest figure.

Array-based gas sensors now offer the potential of a robust analytical approach to odor measurement for medical use. We are developing a fast reliable method for detection of microbial infection by monitoring the headspace from the infected wound. In this paper, we present initial results obtained from wound-state monitoring for burn patients using an electronic nose incorporating an automated solid-phase microextraction (SPME) desorption system to enable the system to be used for clinical validation. SPME preconcentration is used for sampling of the headspace air and the response of the sensor module to variable concentrations of volatiles emitted from SPME fiber is evaluated. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry studies prove that living bacteria, the typical infectious agents in clinical practice, can be distinguished from each other by means of a limited set of key volatile products. Principal component analysis results give the first indication that infected patients may be distinguished from uninfected patients. Microbial laboratory analysis using clinical samples verifies the performance of the system.

In this study, a numerical simulation that can effectively predict the strengthening effect of repaired aged RC structures is developed using the axial deformation link elements. In repaired structures, concrete and interface are modeled as quasi-brittle materials. An elastic-perfectly plastic constitutive relationship is introduced for reinforcing bars. Also, a linear-elastic relationship for repair materials such as FRP or CFS. Structural deterioration in terms of corrosion of steel rebar is considered. The interfacial property between steel and concrete which is reduced by corrosion of steel rebar is obtained by comparing numerical results with experimental results of pull out tests. Obtained values are used in repaired reinforced concrete structures under flexural loading conditions. To investigate strengthening effect of the structures repaired with carbon fiber sheet(CFS), repaired and unrepaired RC structures are analyzed numerically. From analysis, rip-off, debonding and rupture failure mechanisms of interface between substrate and CFS can be determined. Finally, strengthening effect according to the variation of interfacial material properties is investigated, and it is shown that interfacial material properties have influence on the mechanical behavior of repaired structure systems Therefore, the developed numerical method using axial deformation link elements can use for determining the strengthening effects and failure mechanism of repaired aged RC structure.

The general solution of the anti-plane shear problem for the curved interfacial crack between viscoelastic foam and composites was investigated with the complex variable displacement function. Kelvin-Maxwell three parameter model is used to present viscoelasticity and the Laplace transform was applied to treat the viscoelastic characteristics of foam in the analysis. The stress intensity factor near the interfacial crack tip was predicted by considering both anisotropic and viscoelastic properties of two different materials. The results showed that the stress intensity factor increased with increasing the curvature of the curved interfacial crack and it also increased and eventually converged to a specific value with increasing time. The stress intensity factor increased with increasing the ratio of stiffness coefficients between foam and composites and the effect of fiber orientation on the stress intensity factor decreased with increasing the ratio of stiffness coefficients between foam and composites.

Nowadays, fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are widely used for rehabilitation, repair and strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Also, recent advances in concrete technology have led to the production of high strength concrete, HSC. Such concrete due to its very high compression strength is less ductile; so in seismic areas, ductility is an important factor in design of HSC members (especially FRP strengthened members) under flexure. In this study, the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and multiple regression analysis are used to predict the curvature ductility factor of FRP strengthened reinforced HSC (RHSC) beams. Also, the effects of concrete strength, steel reinforcement ratio and externally reinforcement (FRP) stiffness on the complete moment-curvature behavior and the curvature ductility factor of the FRP strengthened RHSC beams are evaluated using the analytical approach. Results indicate that the predictions of ANFIS and multiple regression models for the curvature ductility factor are accurate to within -0.22% and 1.87% error for practical applications respectively. Finally, the effects of height to wide ratio (h/b) of the cross section on the proposed models are investigated.
