In this research, the decrease of the tensile strength in CFRP was investigated by experimental and analytical methods. We focused on the role of the interface between the reinforcing fiber and the epoxy resin matrix. The tensile and the interface strengths in CFRF were evaluated using the strand and the short beam specimens. Curtin's model which correlate the mechanical strength of the interface to the tensile strength was introduced for analytical study. The experimental and the analytical results showed good coincidence and we found that the interface strength is the key factor which governs the CFRP's tensile strength.

To characterize the root strength changes of Pinus densiflora by elapsed years after forest fire, we measured and analyzed the tensile force and strength of the roots using the universal testing machine for 4 years. The deterioration rate of the root strength was higher in small diameter class than that in large diameter class. Especially, the deterioration was highest of the root strength at the second year in all surveyed diameter classes and the mean deterioration rate of the root strength was 61% by that time. The tensile strength based on the simulation by ordinary differential equations deteriorated more than 50% in all diameter classes within 2 years after forest fire.

Since reinforced soil walls were introduced in domestic civil engineering society in early 1980's, various reinforcing materials including metal strips, bar mats, and sheet-type reinforcement using geotextile, geogrid, and etc. have been developed for construction purpose. Especially, the geogrid has been mostly used as a reinforcement for reinforced earth structures. This paper describes the tensile behaviors of four types of domestic geogrids. Also, a series of the wide-width tensile tests on three types of geogrids were conducted to assess the reliability of the tensile strains in geogrid measured by strain gauge. The tensile strain by strain gauge is larger than real strain of the geogrid and a difference between strain gauge reading and real strain non-linearly increase with increasing the tensile strain. However, when the tensile strain is smaller than 3%, a difference between strain gauge reading and real strain is negligible.

점용접은 자동차를 제작하는데 사용하는 가장 유용한 용접법이다. 그러나 산업현장에서 직면하고 있는 가장 큰 문제점 중의 하나는 점용접의 용접성에 관한 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 강판의 두께가 1.6mm인 경우와 1.2mm인 경우에 대해 2점 점용접을 실시하여 인장강도를 증가시키고 용접의 흔적을 남기지 않게 하기 위한 조건을 찾는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 용접성에 영향을 미치는 많은 요소들이 있다. 그중에서 용접전극의 형상이 인장강도를 증가시키는 요소로 집중을 하면서 연구를 수행하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 인장강도는 용접전극의 형상 및 팁직경 거리와 전류가 클수록 증가하였다. 시행 착오법을 통해 최적용접조건을 찾았고 그에 따른 최적전류인 9,000A와 전극의 형상 RF형을 찾았다. 경도시험결과는 인장력이 시험편에 작용할 때 열 영향부인 HAZ부에서 왜 파괴가 일어나는지를 설명해 주었다.

방사성물질의 수송 및 저장용기 등에 사용되는 실리콘고무계 및 수소 첨가된 비스페놀-A형 에폭시수지계 중성자 차폐재들의 인장강도, 압축강도, 비중, 무게, 수소함량 등에 방사선이 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 방사선 조사선량의 증가에 따라 실리콘고무계 중성자 차폐재(KNS-101 및 102)들의 인장강도, 압축강도, 비중 등이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 차폐재의 무게는 거의 변화가 없었으나, 수소함량은 약간 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 에폭시수지계 중성자 차폐재(KNS-201 및 202)들의 인장강도 및 압축강도는 0.1 MGy까지는 방사선 조사선량의 증가에 따라 증가하다가 0.1MGy 이상에서는 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 조사선량의 증가에 따른 차폐재들의 비중, 무게 및 수소함량은 크게 변하지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

The effect of unreactive coupling agent on mechanical and thermal properties of talc-filled polypropylene (PP) composites was studied. Stearic and oleic acids were introduced as coupling agents, and tensile, flexural, and impact strength, thermal stability and melting transition temperature were measured and analyzed according to the types and concentration of coupling agents. Tensile and flexural strength were enhanced by introduction of coupling agent and the maximum effect was observed at the concentration of 3 wt% of coupling agent. Tensile and flexural strength of PP treated with oleic acid were higher than those of PP treated with stearic acid. but impact strength vice-versa. The reasons for these results were postulated by analyzing morphologies of talc-filled PP observed by SEM.

Splice of reinforcement is inevitable in reinforced concrete structures and, generally, lap splices are used. Lap length for tension splice is determined from development length in tension. The development length is calculated from an experimental model which was based on data of tests on anchorage and splice. Longitudinal reinforcements in flexural members are deformed and, therefore, prying action happens in spliced reinforcements unlike anchored reinforcements. The prying action induces tensile stress in cover concrete and this tensile stress plays the same role to a circumferential tensile stress caused by bond. Because splitting failure is assumed to occur when the summation of tensile stresses caused by the prying action and the bond is equal to the tensile strength of the concrete, the prying action reduces the bond strength of spliced reinforcements. A theoretical model for the prying action is developed and effects of the prying action on the bond strength are assessed. The tensile stress by the prying action is proportional to tensile strength and modulus of elasticity of reinforcements. In addition, the tensile stress is inversely proportional to spacing of reinforcements. Consequently, longer splice length is required for spliced reinforcements with small spacing in flexible members.

In this study, a cylinder embedded within cemented soils was used to cause directly tensile failure of cemented soils. An existing dumbbell type direct tensile test and a split tensile test that is most general indirect tensile test were also carried out to verify the developed built-in cylinder tensile test. Testing specimens with two different sand/cement ratios (1:1 and 3:1) and two curing periods (7 and 28 days) were prepared and tested. Total 10 specimens were prepared for each case and their average value was evaluated. Unconfined compression tests were also carried out and the ratio of compressive strength and tensile strength was evaluated. The tensile strength determined by built-in cylinder tensile test was slightly higher than that by dumbbell type direct tensile test. The dumbbell type test has often failed in joint part of specimen and showed some difficulty to prepare a specimen. Among three tensile testing methods, the standard deviation of tensile strength by split tensile test was highest. It was shown that the split tensile test is applicable to concrete or rock with elastic failure but not for cemented soils having lower strength.

The tensile properties of geogrid are affected by such factors as temperature, specimen length, gauge length, testing speed and measuring equipment. The tensile strength of geogrids can be determined by ASTM 06637 and ISO 10319. The main differences between two testing methods are testing speed and specimen length. This paper presents the results of the wide-width tensile tests for three geogrids according to different specimen length and tension speed.
