Abstract

As the use of composite materials of woven structure has expanded to various fields such as automobile and aviation industry, there has been a need for reliability problems and prediction of mechanical properties of woven composites. In this study, finite element analysis for predicting the mechanical properties of composite materials with different weaving structures was conducted to verify similarity with experimental static properties and an effective modeling method was developed. To reflect the characteristics of the weave structure, the meso-scale representative volume element (RVE) was used in modeling. Three-dimensional modeling was carried out by separating the yarn and the pure matrix. Hashin's failure criterion was used to determine whether the element was failed, and the simulation model used a progressive failure model which was suitable for the composite material. Finally, the accordance of the modeling and simulation technique was verified by successfully predicting the mechanical properties of the composite material according to the weave structure.

직조 구조의 복합재의 쓰임이 자동차, 항공 산업 등 여러 분야로 확장됨에 따라, 직조 복합재의 신뢰성 문제 및 물성예측에 대한 필요성이 대두되었다. 본 연구에서는 직조 구조가 다른 복합재료의 물성 예측을 위한 유한요소해석을 수행하여 실험으로 얻은 정적 물성과의 유사성을 검증하였고, 효과적인 모델링 방법을 개발하였다. 직조 구조의 특성을 반영하기 위하여 모델링은 메소 스케일의 대표 체적 요소(RVE)를 이용하였다. 섬유 다발과 순수 기지를 분리하여 3차원 모델링을 진행하였다. 하신 파괴 기준(Hashin's failure criteria)을 적용하여 요소의 파괴 유무를 판단하였고, 해석 모델은 복합재에 적합한 점진적 파괴 모델을 사용하였다. 최종적으로, 직조 구조에 따른 복합재의 물성을 성공적으로 예측하여 본 모델링 및 해석 기법에 대한 적합성을 검증하였다.
