In the development of a propellant tank using liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen, the improvement of microcrack resistance of carbon/epoxy composites is necessary for the application of a composite material to tank structures. In this research, two types of carbon/epoxy composites with different matrix systems were tested to measure interlaminar shear strength (ILSS), one of the material properties to evaluate fiber-matrix interface adhesion indirectly. Short beam specimens were tested inside an environmental chamber at room temperature(RT) and at cryogenic temperature( - 150 $^{\circ}C$) respectively. Results showed that the matrix system with large amount of bisphenol-A and CTBN modified rubber had good performance at cryogenic temperature.

경상분지 북동부 일대의 제3기 결정질 응회암에서 분포하는 미세균열의 전반적인 분포특성을 규명하였다. 포항시 흥해읍 및 청하면 지역에서 채취한 6개 암석시료의 수평면 상에서 발달하는 108조의 미세균열은 영상처리를 통하여 구별하였다. 이들 108조의 미세균열은 38장의 영상에서 뚜렷한 선상배열을 보여 주었다. 결정질 응회암에 대한 방향각(${\theta}$)-빈도수(N) 관계도의 전 영역은 미세균열의 분포상에 의하여 20개의 영역으로 분류할 수가 있다. 관계도에서 미세균열의 여러 조는 수직상의 일반적인 절리의 방향과 일치하는 강한 배향성을 보여 준다. 따라서 관계도의 각 영역내에서 빈도가 높은 방향각으로부터 거시적인 수직상 절리의 잠재성을 추측할 수가 있다. 관계도에서 나타난 이러한 절리의 형태는 강화군 석모도의 중생대 화강암의 경우와 거의 동일하다. 결정질 응회암에서 도출한 미세균열의 방향을 종합한 장미도에서, 빈도등급에 따른 미세균열의 우세한 조들의 방향성은 암체에 작용한 최대 압축 주응력의 대표적인 방향성을 시사한다. 한편 결정질 응회암의 미세균열의 방향성에 대하여 경상분지 남서부의 불국사 화강암류에서 분포하는 열린 미세균열 그리고 국내 중생대 화강암류의 석산에서 발달하는 수직 결의 방향성과 비교하였다. 광역 분포도에서 상기한 결정질 응회암 및 불국사 화강암류의 미세균열 조 그리고 수직 결 사이의 분포형이 일치한다는 사실은 결정질 응회암에서 내재하는 미세균열의 계는 국내 중생대 화강암류에서도 광역적으로 발달함을 시사한다.

The goal is to assess the effect of fatigue loading on mechanical properties of Fiberite 934/T300 laminates of pressure vessel using the recent variational mechanics analysis. This analysis has been useful in providing fracture mechanics interpretation of matrix microcracking in cross-ply laminates. This paper describes using the new energy release rate analysis for a fracture mechanics based interpretation of microcrack formation during fatigue loading. The master plot by modified Paris-law gives a complete characterization of a material system's resistance to microcrack formation.

Zirconium alloy cladding tube specimens were irradiated at $380^{\circ}C$ up to a fast neutron fluence of $7.5{\times}10^{24}n/m^2$ in a research reactor to investigate the effect of neutron irradiation on hydride reorientation and mechanical property degradation. Cool-down tests from $400^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$ under 150 MPa tensile hoop stress were performed. These tests indicate that the irradiated specimens generated a smaller radial hydride fraction than did the unirradiated specimens and that higher hydrogen content generated a smaller radial hydride fraction. The irradiated specimens of 500 ppm-H showed smaller ultimate tensile strength and plastic strain than those characteristics of the 250 ppm-H specimens. This mechanical property degradation caused by neutron irradiation can be explained by tensile hoop stress-induced microcrack formation on the hydrides in the irradiation-damaged matrix and subsequent microcrack propagation along the hydrides and/or through the matrix.

복합재료의 미세균열을 연구하는데 변분이론을 이용한 에너지 방출율 이론이 쓰여졌다. Fiberite 934/T300 복합재료로 만들어진 압력용기에 피로하중이 가해졌을때 기계적 성질이 어떻게 변하는가에 이 논문의 연구 목적이 있다. 수정된 Paris-Law를 이용하여 에너지 방출율과 미세균열 성장률에 대한 master-curve를 그리면 어떤 피로하중 하에서도 복합재료의 미세균열에 관한 성장율을 예측할 수 있다.

Mechanical property enhancing mechanisms of $Al_2O_3-ZrO_2$ two phase ceramic composites were studied for several compositions of different $ZrO_2$/$Al_2O_3$ ratio. Microstructural analysis of $Al_2O_3-ZrO_3$(pure) composites indicated that pre-existing microcrack due to larger $ZrO_2$ particle at grain boundary extended along alumina grain boundaries within process zone. Microcracks also nucleated when very small $ZrO_2$ particles at the grain boundaries transformed to monoclinic phase at near of main crack tip. These types of microcracks could contribute to the toughening achieved by creating additional crack surface area during crack propagation. Microstructural analyses also showed that the average grain size and abnormal grain size of $Al_2O_3$ were decreased with increasing $ZrO_2$ vol% in $Al_2O_3$ matrix. As a result it could be concluded as follows In TEX>$Al_2O_3-ZrO_3$(pure) system 1. Microcrack nucleation (stress-induced microcracking) and extension was effective mechanism for absorpiton of fracture energy 2, More narrow distribution and smaller grain size of $Al_2O_3$ due to $ZrO_2$particles mainly contributed to main-tatin the strength and hardness.

The effect of $ZrO_2$ dispersed phase on the mechanical properties in $Al_2O_3$-$ZrO_2$system has been studied. There are both metastable tetragonal phase and stable monoclinic phase of $ZrO_2$particles diespersed in Al2O3 matrix at room temperature. Metastable tetragonal $ZrO_2$ changes to the stable monoclinic structure within the stress field of the crack. And microcracks are formed by the expansion of $ZrO_2$during the tetragonal-monoclinic transformation on cooling. Therefore stress-induced phase transformation and inclusion-induced microcracking contribute to the mec-hanical properties of $Al_2O_3$-$ZrO_2$system. Sintered composites containing 10m/o $ZrO_2$ yield KiC values of 6.5MN/$m^{3/2}$ much greater than that of pure $Al_2O_3$ This increase results from microcrack extension and stress-induced phase transformation absor-bing energy by crack propagation. Flexural strength of composites is decreased considerably in comparison with pure $Al_2O_3$ This decrease results from microcrack as a crack former and higher porosity than pure $Al_2O_3$.

Geomaterials such as soil and rock are composed of discrete elements of microstructures with different grains and microcracks. The studies of these microstructures are of increasing interest in geophysics and geotechnical engineering relating to underground space development We first show experimental results undertaken for direct observation of microcrack initiation and propagation by using a newly developed experimental system, and next a homogenization method for treating a viscoelastic behavior of a polycrystalline rock.

An experimental system on three point bending notched beams was established to study the fracture process of concrete. In this system, the acoustic emission (AE) was used to build the cumulative generation order (AGO) and dynamically track the process of microcrack evolution in concrete. A grey-cusp catastrophe model was built based on AE parameters. The results show that the concrete beams have significant catastrophe characteristic. The developed grey-cusp catastrophe model, based on AGO, can well describe the catastrophe characteristic of concrete fracture process. This study also provides a theoretical and technical support for the application of AE in concrete fracture prediction.

일반적으로 등방→균질 재료로 취급되고 있는 화강암 내에는 많은 미세 결함들이 존재한다. 암석에서 이들 미세 결함들이 단계적으로 발생, 진전하여 취성파괴가 일어나는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 새롭게 개발된 시험기를 이용하여 수침삼축압축시험중에 일어나는 미수크랙의 발생, 진전 및 상호작용을 연속적으로 관찰하고, 그 형태를 분류하였다.
