본 연구에서는 피로 잔류강도저하(fatigue residual strength degradation) 개념을 이용하여 복합재료의 잔류강도와 피로수명을 예측하고 실험을 통하여 비교 평 가하였으며, 설계시 고려되어야 할 인자를 파악하여 파손방지를 위한 유한 수명설계 및 손상허용설계의 기본자료를 집적함으로서 새로운 소재인 탄소섬유 강화 복합재료의 신뢰성 향상을 위한 개발과 고강도 경량화를 위한 이용설계에 활용할 수 있도록 하는 데 그 목적이 있다.
Fatigue tests have been carried out to measure the degradation of the residual strength and the fatigue life in carbon/epoxy (0/45/90/-45)$_{2s}$ composite materials. Theoretical predictions of residual strength and fatigue life were compared with experimental results. Distribution characteristics were studied using the probability of failure based on the cumulative distribution function and median rand. The static ultimate strength of carbon/epoxy composites used herein is observed to be relatively higher than that of existing similar composites ; while fatigue life is shorter due to the brittleness of matrix. The fatigue life obtained in these experiments is shorter than that estimated by residual strength degradation model when the stress level above 0.6 For the stress level of 0.6, the experimental value was abruptly increased. The cumulative distribution function for the static ultimate strength is well correlated to that for the strength converted from the measured fatigue life. Also, the predicted distribution of residual strength shows good agreement with the experimental results. Therefore, it is proven that the residual strength degradation model is reasonable.e.
