The puncture properties under various conditions were investigated for the optimum conditions to yield the best properties. Fiber aspect ratio(AR: length of fiber/diameter of fiber), interphase condition and fiber content were considered as variables which impact the puncture force and friction force. The puncture force of short-fiber reinforced rubber increases up to 3.4 times compared to the virgin material. The better interphase condition shows the higher puncture force at given fiber AR and fiber content. The friction force of the matrix and reinforced rubber with a fiber AR below 155 does not exist. The friction force of the reinforced rubber with the good interphase condition and high fiber AR is higher than puncture force of matrix. Overall, it was found that the interphase condition, fiber AR and fiber content have an important effect on the puncture properties.

This study describes to assess combustion characteristics of fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) that is used an elements of building or structure in workplace. The combustion characteristics of the fiber reinforced plastic were carried out using by a Cone Calorimeter according to ISO 5660 standard. As the results of this study, the time to ignition and heat release rate of the fiber reinforced plastic was differ with heat flux of irradiance and content of flame retardant agent. The heat release rate of the fiber reinforced plastic was increased with increasing heat flux of irradiance. The flashover propensity of the fiber reinforced plastic using time to ignition and peak heat release rate was examined according to classification method by R.V. Petrella.

Carbon nanofiber exhibits superior and of ien unique characteristics of mechanical, electrical, chemical and thermal properties. Despite of the excellent properties of carbon nanofiber, the properties of carbon nanofiber filled polymer composites were not increased largely. The reason is that it is still difficult to ensure the uniform dispersion of carbon nanofiber in a polymer matrix. In this study, for improvement of the mechanical properties of composites, carbon nanofiber reinforced hybrid composites was investigated. For the dispersion of carbon nanofiber. solution blending method using ultrasonic was used. Dispersion of carbon nanoifiber was observed by scanning electron microscope (SEH). Mechanical properties were measured by universal testing machine(UTM).

The puncture properties of short-fiber reinforced rubber were investigated as functions of fiber aspect ratio(AR: length of fiber/diameter of fiber), fiber content, specimen size and testing velocity. The puncture stresses of the matrix and short-fiber reinforced rubber decreased with specimen size, and increased with testing velocity at same specimen size. As the fiber AR increased the puncture stress at given fiber content also increased. The problem of the specimen shape was investigated by the comparison of the tensile strength with puncture stress. The forces acting in the membrane wall of the matrix and the short-fiber reinforced rubber showed a similar data regardless of specimen size. And those increased with testing velocity at same specimen size. As the fiber AR increased the force acting in the wall at given fiber content also increased. Overall, it was found that the specimen size, testing velocity had an important effects on the puncture properties.

The performance prediction of fiber-reinforced composites has attracted engineer's attention in many fields, and the various theoretical and numerical methods have been proposed to predict the behavior of the fiber-reinforced composites. An evolutionary damage model for progressive interfacial debonding between circular fibers and the matrix is newly incorporated into the micromechanics-based elastoplastic model proposed by Ju and Zhang (2001) in this framework. Using the proposed model, a series of numerical simulations are conducted to illustrate the elastoplastic behavior and evolutionary damage of the framework. Furthermore, the influence of the evolutionary interfacial debonding on the behavior of the composites is investigated by comparing it with the result of a stationary damage model.

섬유강화 복합재료의 섬유와 수지까지 세부적으로 모델링이 가능한 Direct Numerical Simulation을 통해서 Boron/Aluminum 섬유강화 복합재료의 탄성계수들을 구해 보았다. 수치실험에서는 복합재료를 직교이방성 물질로 가정하였고, 특정 체적에 대한 평균치를 이용해서 물성치를 구하였으며, 혼합법칙에 의해서 구한 값 및 대표체적요소(Representative Volume Element)를 사용해서 구한 값들과 비교하였다. 혼합법칙의 경우, 섬유방향 인장계수(E₁)을 제외한 나머지 물성치들에 대해서는 상당한 차이를 나타내며, 이는 혼합법칙 유도과정에서 가정한 기본가정들이 적절하지 않기 때문이라는 것을 수치실험(Numerical Experiment)을 통해 알 수 있었다.

Mechanical properties of fiber reinforced composites were affected to fiber volume fractions (FVF) and interfacial property by sizing agent conditions. An optimum interface can relieve stress concentration by transferring the mechanical stress from the matrix resin to the reinforcements effectively, and thus can result in the performance of the composites. The interfacial properties and wettability between the epoxy resin and glass fiber (GF) were evaluated for different sizing agent conditions and FVFs. The surface energies of epoxy resin and different sizing agent treated GFs were calculated using dynamic and static contact angle measurements. The work of adhesion, W_a was calculated by using surface energies of epoxy matrix and GFs. The wettability was evaluated via the GF tow capillary test. The interfacial shear strength (IFSS) was evaluated by microdroplet pull-out test. Finally, the optimized GFRP manufacturing conditions could be obtained by using wettability and interfacial property.
