섬유금속 적층판(FMLs)은 손상허용도를 향상시키고 무게를 줄이는데 적합하여 항공우주 응용의 신소재로 각광을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 우선 섬유와 알루미늄을 이용하여 적층판을 제조하여 인장시험을 수행 후 FMLs의 기계적 물성을 평가하였다. 또한 알루미늄과 섬유적층의 변화를 주어 낙추충격시험기(Drop Weight Impact Tester)를 이용하여 저속충격하에서 낙추 높이를 조절하여 각 종류의 시험편 마다 충격시간에 따른 하중과 충격흡수에너지를 각각 비교하였다. 추가로 유한요소해석을 이용하여 시험조건과 동일 조건하 인장과 충격거동해석을 수행한 결과를 실험치와 비교하여 실험과 이론해석이 잘 일치함을 보였다.
The Fiber/Metal Laminates (FMLs) have been developed as a new composite material for aerospace application to reduce weight and improve damage tolerance. In this study, firstly FMLs were manufactured and the tensile test was performed to investigate the mechanical properties of FMLs. Furthermore, impact behavior of the low velocity on FMLs which consisted of different types of aluminum or fiber/epoxy layers was tested by the drop weight impact tester based on the different impact energy conditions. The load-time and energy-time curves were employed to evaluate the impact performance of different specimens. Moreover, finite element analysis (FEA) was also performed to simulate the tensile test and impact behavior of FMLs under the same conditions with the tests and good agreements have been obtained between the FEA predictions and experimental results.
