본 연구에서는 압전형 음향변환기를 제작하기 위한 금속과 세라믹스로 적층된 원형의 압전음향소자와 음향변환기 케이스를 설계하였다. 먼저 음향소자인 복합원형평판의 진동운동 방정식을 세우고 그 진동모드를 알아보았다. 음향소자의 세라믹스는 두께 1 mm, 지름 10 mm의 PZT(IV)를 사용하였고, 금속판의 지름과 두께를 다양하게 변화시키면서 음향소자의 공진주파수를 계산하고, 각각의 금속판에 따른 감도지수의 변화를 계산하였다. 설계하고자 하는 음향소자의 공진주파수를 200 KHz로 청하고, 위의 계산을 통하여 음향변환소자에 가장 적합한 금속진동판을 찾아보았다. 음향변환기의 복합원형평판으로 이루어진 음향소자의 물리적 변화에 따른 공진주파수와 감도지수를 구하고 음향변환기 케이스의 공진주파수를 계산하여 압전형 음향변환기에 알맞은 금속진동판과 음향변환기 케이스를 알아보았다.

The actuating performance test of plate-type piezoelectric composite actuators having different lay-up sequences was experimentally carried out at simply supported and fixed-free boundary conditions. The actuating displacement of manufactured plate-type piezoelectric composite actuator (PCA) was measured using a non-contact laser displacement measurement system. Our results revealed that the actuating displacement with increasing applied electric field at a drive frequency of 1Hz increased non-linearly at the simply supported boundary condition whereas it almost linearly increased at the fixed-free boundary condition. On the other hand, the actuating displacement of piezoelectric composite actuator depended on the applied electric field in a drive frequency range from 1Hz to 10Hz, but its behavior was different in higher drive frequencies beyond 15Hz due to the occurrence of resonance. On the basis of the above experimental results, the bending characteristics of PCAs revealed different behavior depending on applied electric fields, drive frequencies as well as boundary conditions. Therefore, by investigating drive frequencies together with applied electric fields, actuating performance can be easily controlled and PCAs which were fabricated for this study will be sufficiently applied to pumping devices.

Mixed mode fracture problem is analyzed for the finite orthotropic plate where an inclined crack parallel to the fiber direction is centrally placed. Modified mapping collocation method with both uniform stress and uniform displacement boundary conditions is utilized to calculate stress intensity correction factors for glass/epoxy and graphite/epoxy composites. Computed results are presented for selected combinations of crack length to width ratio L/W and plate aspect ratio H/W with various fiber orientations.

Impact tester was build up to evaluate the characterization of CFRP laminate plates under the low velocity impact. The tests were conducted on several laminates of different ply orientation A system was budded for the impact strength of CFRP laminates in consideration of stress wave propagation theory using drop-weight impact tester as one of impact test. Results indicate that absorbed energy of quasi-isotropic specimen having four interfaces is higher than that of orthotropic laminates with two interfaces. Also the damage area was measured with ultrasonic C-scanner on some samples. In the specimens the relationship was linear between damaged area and absorbed energy to some degree. Absorbed energy in the specimen that ply number, interface number and fiber stacking sequences is same but having hybrid is higher than that of orthotropic laminates without hybrid.

Recently, with development of mechanics of materials, as pursuing the high speed of the ships, there has been an increasing demand on the composite construction which satisfies high strength and low weight at the same time. A sandwich element is a type of composite construction, which is composed of thin, strong, stiff and relatively high density faces and a thick, light, and weaker core material. As the second moment is increased by faces separated from the neutral axis farther, a sandwich element is most effective light structural form. In this study, Rayleigh-Ritz Energy Method is adopted, which can analyze sandwich plate relatively simply and exactly. Stresses and buckling loads are analyzed exactly, when uniform lateral pressure load, inplane compression and inplane shear are acting at the sandwich plate. Including a wrinkling stress, this study can be applied to the initial design and minimum weight design of sandwich plates.

In this study, the delamination analysis has been implemented to investigate the initiation and propagation of crack in composite laminates composed of orthotropic materials. A simple modeling was achieved by moving nodal technique without re-meshing work when crack propagation occurred. This paper aims at achieving two specific objectives. The first is to suggest a very simple modeling scheme compared with those applied to conventional h-FEM based models. To verify the performance of the proposed model, analysis of double cantilever beams with composite materials was implemented and then the results were compared with reference values in literatures. The second one is to investigate the behavior of interior delamination problems using the proposed model. To complete these objectives, the full-discrete-layer model based on Lobatto shape functions was considered and energy release rates were calculated using three-dimensional VCCT(virtual crack closure technique) based on linear elastic fracture mechanics.

Laminate composites, especially Carbon fiber-reinforced composites are wide used in various industry such as aerospace and automotive industry due to their high specific strength and specific stiffness. However, the laminate composites has a big disadvantage that delamination occurs because the arrangement of the fibers is all arranged in the in-plane direction, which limits the field of application of the laminate composites. In this study, we first developed a laminate composites T-beam in which π-beam and flat plate were combined and optimized the design parameters through structural analysis and mechanical tests. Afterwards, 3D weave preform T-beam was developed by applying the same design parameters of laminate composites T-beams, and improved mechanical strength was achieved compared to laminated structures. These findings are expected to be applicable to existing laminated composite structures that require increased strength.

The advanced fiber-reinforced laminated composites are widely used in a variety of engineering applications such as aerospace, marine, mechanical and civil engineering for weight savings because of their high specific strength and stiffness. The material properties of ply is known to have larger variations than that of conventional materials and very sensitive to the loading direction. Therefore, it is important to consider the variations on designing the laminated composite. This paper demonstrates the importance of considering uncertainties through examining the effect of material properties variations on various design requirements such as tip deflection, natural frequency and buckling stress using COMSOL-MATLAB interface.

One promising method for impact detection of composite structures is based on the use of piezopolymer thin fim (PVDf) sensor. In this paper, the relationship between the contact force and the signals of the attached strain gage and PVDF sensor to the composite plate subjected to low-velocity impact were derived. The relation for the open circuit and short circuit voltage of PVDF sensor was derived based on the equivalent circuit model of the piezoelectric sensor. The work was then extended to include experimental investigation into the use of short circuit voltage of PVDF sensor without using charge amplifier to detect low-velocity impact. The natural frequencies and damping ratio of the composite plate obtained from the vibration test were used to modify the analytical model and therefore the differences between measured and simulated signal of the modified analytical model in both forward and backward problem were considerably reduced. The reconstructed contact force and simulated sensor signals agreed well with the measured contact force, strain gage signal, and PVDF sensor singanl.

복합재 연소관과 노즐을 기계적 체결방법으로 결합하면 결합부위에서 재료의 불연속성과 기하학적 불연속성으로 인한 높은 응력집중이 발생해 구조적으로 매우 취약하게 됩니다. 복합재 연소관의 경우에는 내압을 받는 원통형 구조물이므로 기존의 평판에 대한 연구결과를 그대로 사용할수 없으므로, 이 글에서는 복합재 셀 구조물의 응력 및 파손 해석을 수행할수 있도록 1차전단변형 셀이론을 이용한 유한요소해석 프로그램을 개발하였습니다. 기계적체결부위의 모델링에 대해 검토하였으며 복합재료의 파손평가에 사용되는 여러가지 파손식을 적용해 비교하였습니다. 이 해석 방법을 이용해 복합재 연소관의 적층각, 볼트직경, 연소관의 끝단까지의 길이 등이 파손하중에 미치는 영향을 제시하였습니다
