Free vibration characteristics of a cantilevered laminated composite beam with multiple non-propagating transverse open cracks are investigated. In the present analysis a special ply-angle distribution referred to as asymmetric stiffness configuration inducing the elastic coupling between chord-wise bending and extension is considered. The multiple open cracks are modelled as equivalent rotational springs whose spring constants are calculated based on the fracture mechanics of composite material structures. Governing equations of a composite beam with open cracks are derived via Hamilton's Principle and Timoshenko beam theory encompassing transverse shear and rotary inertia effect is adopted. The effects of various parameters such as the ply angle, fiber volume fraction, crack numbers, crack positions and crack depthes on the free vibration characteristics of the beam with multiple cracks are highlighted. The numerical results show that the existence of the multiple cracks in an anisotropic composite beam affects the free vibration characteristics in a more complex fashion compared with the beam with a single crack.

Theoretical and experimental free vibration characteristics of cantilevered laminated composite beams with single or multiple transverse non-propagating open cracks are investigated. The presence of intrinsic cracks in beams modifies the flexibility and in turn free vibration characteristics of the structures, and the existence of the multiple cracks in an anisotropic composite beam affects the free vibration characteristics in a more complex fashion compared with the beam with a single crack. Also the experimental results are well coincide with the numerical results in the decrease of natural frequencies and the transformation of mode shapes because of intrinsic cracks in the composite or aluminum beams. It is revealed that non-destructive crack detection(NDT) or vibration based inspection(VBI) is possible by analyzing the free vibration responses of cracked composite beams.

Concrete filled steel tube structures were recently used in constructing high-rise buildings due to their effectiveness. Studies on concrete filled steel tubes have been focused on the experiments of uni-axial compression and bending and eccentric compression. There were also a few studies that investigated CFT member behavior under combined compression and torsion. The behavior of a circular CFT column under combined torsion and compression was theoretically investigated, considering the confinement of steel tubes on the concrete, the softening of the concrete, and the spiral effect, which were the dominant factors that influenced compression and torsion strength. The biaxial stress effects due to diagonal cracking were also taken into account. By applying those factors to compatibility and equilibrium conditions, the basic equation was derived, and the equation could be used to incorporate the torsional behavior of the entire loading history of the CFT member.

In this study, we aim to derive a solution from the structural analysis for electrical failure of single board computers for computing navigation information. By analyzing the characteristic factor, we identify that crack occur on the central processing unit board due to a certain structural problem, and that the physical effect by the crack make communication function be impossible to perform, which it causes booting error. In order to find the location of excessive stress causing the crack, structural analysis for the single board computer is done. From the structural analysis, the areas where stress concentration occurs are identified, and improvement methods changing the structures are developed. As a result, we shows that stresses are reduced entirely on the stress distribution for the improved structure. In addition, heat analysis shows that changing the structure to reduce stresses is not affect to the heat radiation, and the thermal resistance of the actual equipment is verified by measuring the temperature of the heat sink applied with the improved structure.

Single overload tests are carried out for SS41. Specimens are used hollow type and solid type that stress condition prevail plane stress and plane strain at surface crack. According to the crack initiation and propagation period, single overload applies to three regime and overload ratios change into 1.5, 2.0. Crack retardation zones at initation range aren't different in both specimens respectively, however at propagation range come into large scale in hollow specimen. Delayed load cycles come into large scale in solid type. And the more the overload ratio increase, the larger the retardation zone increase but the magnitude doesn't exactly equal to the expected from the overload ratio.

In this study, the governing equations of motion for multi-cracked nonuniform nanobeam based on nonlocal elasticity theory and embedded in an elastic medium were derived. DTM(differential transformation method) was applied to vibration analysis of multi-cracked nonuniform nanobeam based on nonlocal elasticity theory and embedded in an elastic medium. The non-dimensional natural frequencies of this nanobeam were obtained for eoe, crack stiffness and elastic medium stiffness with various boundary conditions. The results obtained by this method was compared with previous works and showed the close agreement between two methods. The important conclusions obtained by this study are as follows : 1. As the length of nanobeam is shorter, the effect of scale coefficient is greater. 2. The locations of crack change non-dimensional natural frequency, In the case of fixed-fixed ends, the non-dimensional natural frequency is the biggest in the first crack location of 0.6L of nanobeam length, and the smallest in both ends. In the case of fixed-free ends, the closer the location of first crack go tho the free end, the bigger the non-dimensional natural frequency. 3. As the stiffness of crack is greater, the non-dimensional natural frequency is smaller, And the effect of crack stiffness is similar on both fixed-free ends and fixed-fixed ends. 4. The bigger the stiffness of elastic medium, the greater the non - dimensional natural frequency.

This study examined the ultrasonic pulse reflection method(UPRM) for testing each ultrasonic pulse waveform model(UPWM) based on weld defects. The sharp crack of a clear signal was generated. The echo height of the defective probes changed according to the location. In a long crack in a circle around the defective probes, the Swivel scanning echo height when using the particle was reduced drastically. The peaks in the echo were thin because the needle was pointed. The porosity defects arising from a single echo was sharp and crisp, but a number of pores of the collective reflection overlapped and ajagged echo was observed. Slag, slag inclusions, cracks, and defects at the Swivel scan of each particle using the echo shape showed difference in the degree. Cracks were revealed as sudden changes in the echo height of the slag inclusions: increase ${\rightarrow}$ decrease ${\rightarrow}$ increase ${\rightarrow}$ decrease. In addition, the location of a number of defects in the dense pore geometry, such as a typical echo sundry, revealed the shape in the slag. Poor penetration of the defect echo, revealed the cracks to have a sharp-edged, crack-like shape with an echo.

최근 학계나 산업계에서 indium tin oxide (ITO)의 높은 전기 전도도 및 광투과율을 이용하여 줄 발열을 기초로 하는 투명 면상 발열체에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행 되고 있다. 하지만 단일 ITO 박막으로 제작한 투명 면상 발열체는 온도가 상승함에 따라 균일하게 발열 되지 않으며, 글라스의 곡면 부분에서 유연성이 부족하여 크랙이 발생하는 다양한 문제점들을 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 ITO의 결정화 온도 $160^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온공정 또는 증착 후 열처리가 필요 하는 추가적인 공정이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 단일 ITO 박막의 단점을 개선하는 ITO/Ag/ITO 하이브리드 구조의 투명 면상 발열체를 제작하여 전기적, 광학적 특성을 비교하고 발열량, 온도 균일성, 발열 유지 안정도를 조사하였다. 본 연구에서는 $50{\times}50mm$ 크기의 non-alkali glass (Corning E-2000) 기판 상에 마그네트론 스퍼터링 공정으로 상온에서 ITO/Ag/ITO 박막을 연속적으로 증착 하여 다층구조의 하이브리드 형 투명 면상 발열체를 제조하였다. 박막 증착 파워는 DC (Ag) power 100 W, RF (ITO) power 200 W로 하였으며 ITO박막두께는 40 nm로 고정 시키고 Ag박막 두께는 10 ~ 20 nm로 변화를 주었다. 증착원은 3인치 ITO 단일 타깃(SnO2, 10 wt.%)과 Ag 금속 타깃 (순도 99.99%)을 사용하였으며, 고순도 Ar을 이용하여 방전하였으며 총 주입량은 20 sccm, working pressure는 1.0 Pa을 유지하였다. 증착전 타깃 표면의 불순물 제거와 방전의 안정성을 유지하기 위해 10분간 pre-sputtering을 진행하고 증착하였다. 증착한 박막의 전기적, 광학적 특성은 각각 Hall-effect measurements system (ECOPIA, HMS3000), UV-Vis spectrophotometer (UV-1800, SHIMADZU)으로 측정하였으며, 하이브리드 표면의 구조 및 형상은 field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM, Hitachi S-4800)으로 관찰하였다. 또한 투명 면상 발열체의 성능은 0.5 ~ 3 V/cm의 다양한 전압을 power supply (Keithly 2400, USA)를 통해서 시편 양 끝단에 인가한 후 시간에 따른 투명면상 발열체의 표면 온도변화를 infrared thermal imager (IR camera, Nikon)를 이용하여 관찰하였다. 하이브리드 구조를 가진 ITO박막의 두께는 40 nm로 고정 시키고 Ag박막의 두께는 10, 15, 20 nm로 변화를 주었다. 이들 박막의 면저항 값은 각각 5.3, 3.2, $2.1{\Omega}/{\Box}$였으며, 투과도는 각각 86.9, 81.7, 66.5 %였다. 이에 비해 두께 95 nm의 단일 ITO박막의 면저항 값은 $59.5{\Omega}/{\Box}$였으며, 투과도는 89.1 %였다. 하이브리드 구조의 전기적특성은 금속층의 두께가 증가할수록 캐리어 농도 값이 증가함에 따라 비저항 값이 감소되어 면저항 값도 감소된 것이며, 금속 삽입층의 전도특성이 비저항에 큰 영향을 주고 있음을 보여준다. 하지만 금속 층의 두께가 증가할수록 Ag층이 연속적인 막을 형성하여 반사율이 증가함에 따라 투과도가 감소하였다. 따라서 하이브리드 구조를 가진 투명 면상 발열체에 금속 삽입층의 두께 조절은 매우 중요한 인자임을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 발열성능을 평가 하기 위해 시편 양 끝단에 3 V전압을 인가한 결과, 금속 삽입층의 두께가 10 nm에서 5 nm씩 증가한 하이브리드 구조를 가진 투명면상 발열체의 최고 온도는 각각 98, 150, $167^{\circ}C$ 였으며, 단일 ITO의 최고 온도는 $32^{\circ}C$였다. 이 것은 동일한 두께 (95 nm)의 단일 ITO 박막과 비교하여 면저항이 낮은 하이브리드 박막의 발열량은 약 $120^{\circ}C$로 발열효율이 매우 우수한 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

In this paper, the natural frequency and damping ratio are analyzed with the acceleration signal of an Euler-Bernoulli beam using the impact hammer test. The results are presented according to crack depth and position using the recursive least squares method. The results are compared and investigated with FEM analysis of CATIA. Both methods agree well with each other regarding the natural mode characteristics. The captured acceleration can be used for the calculation of the natural frequency and damping ratio using time series methods that are based on the measured acceleration. Using these data, a recursive time series model with the acceleration signal was configured and the behaviors of the natural frequency and damping ratio were investigated and analyzed. Finally, the results can be used for the prediction of crack position and depth under different crack conditions for an Euler-Bernoulli beam.

In this study, the inhomogeneous material composed of CFRP(carbon fiber reinforced plastic) and structural metal of SM45C is used for the light material. The finite element analysis on the basis of compact tension test was carried out by using the composite material for sandwich type bonded with the unidirectional CFRP that differs in fiber stacking angle at both sides with the core of SM 45C. CT test is the representative method to confirm the fracture behaviour due to crack in material under the load. The effect on crack and hole must be investigated in order to apply inhomogeneous material to mechanical structure. As the result of this study, the fracture behaviour by CT test of the composite material for sandwich was studied by simulation analysis. The sandwich composite of unidirectional CFRP with the stacking angle of [0/60/-60/0] has the superior strength and the maximum equivalent stress of about 182GPa.Also, the esthetic sense can be shown as the designed factor of shape with composite material is grafted onto the convergence technique.
