In this paper the failure mechanisms and Charpy impact tests of carbon fiber polypropylene composites have been studied in the temperature range -5$0^{\circ}C$ to 6$0^{\circ}C$ and 3 different supported length of specimen (span length). There are significant effects of temperature and span length on impact fracture toughness, which shows a peak at ambient temperature and decrease as temperature is reduced. Fracture toughness shows a maximum at span length s=20mm. Failure mechanisms are characterized based on SEM examination, which is correlated the measured fracture toughness. Mafor mechansms of this composites can be classified as fiber matrix debonding, delamination, fiber pull-out and matrix deformation.

The objective of this study is to examine the fracture characteristics of concrete at early ages such as critical stress intensity factor, critical crack-tip opening displacement, fracture energy, and bilinear softening curve based on the concepts of the effective-elastic crack model and the cohesive crack model. A wedge splitting test for Mode I was performed on cubic wedge specimens with a notch at the edge. By taking various strengths and ages, load-crack mouth opening displacement curves were obtained, and the results were analyzed by linear elastic fracture mechanics and the finite element method. The results from the test and analysis showed that critical stress intensity factor and fracture energy increased, and critical crack-tip opening displacement decreased with concrete ages from 1 day to 28 days. By numerical analysis four parameters of bilinear softening curve from 1 day to 28 days were obtained. The obtained fracture parameters and bilinear softening curves at early ages may be used as a fracture criterion and an input data for finite element analysis of concrete at early ages.

콘크리트는 여러 구성 성분들이 불규칙적인 배열을 이루어 형성된 복합재료이지만, 과거에는 이 재료를 하나의 단종재료로 간주하여 해석하였기 때문에, LEFM에서 사용되는 파괴인성계수만으로는 콘크리트의 파괴역학적 접근이 어렵다는 것 이외에는 파괴인성계수들의 크기의존성에 대한 이유라든가, 실험을 통해서 관측된 구조물 두께 방향으로의 서로 다른 깊이의 균열 진행 현상에 대해서는 설명하기가 어려웠다. 따라서 본 연구는 콘크리트를 하나의 복합재료로써 각각의 구성요소들이 차지하고 있는 체적비 및 배열상의 효과를 고려하여 복합재료의 파괴거동을 해석하고, 구성재료의 수와 파괴인성계수와의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 각각의 구성요소들을 연립변형모드( SD mode)로 배열시킨 조건에서 복합재료역학개념에 입각하여 해석한 결과, 일반적으로 실험이나 비선형파괴역학 해석과 같이 하중-변위곡선 상단부에서 비선형 거동이 관측되었다. 또한 임계응력확대계수( $K_IC$)나 파괴에너지($G_r$)는 구성원의 수나 보의 크기에 대해서 거의 무관한 값을 나타내지만, 임계군열선단개구변위 ($CTOD_c$)는 크기에 영향을 받음을 보여 주었다. 균열의 진행속도는 균열이 진행될수록 감소하며, 파괴인성이 작은 구성원에서부터 균열이 발생되어 결과적으로 보의 두께 방향으로 서로 다른 크기의 균열길이가 생성됨이 관측되었다.

열경화성 수지를 사용한 복합재료의 연구결과들을 종합하여 보면 인장강도에 영향을 미치는 인자에 대한 다양한 연구결과가 있으나, 섬유함유율과 온도에 따른 인장파괴기구에 대한 고찰은 아직 희박한 실정이다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 열가소성 복합재료의 기계적 특성과 파괴거동에 관한 종합적인 연구의 일환으로 섬유함유율이 10%인 GF/PE 복합재료를 -5$0^{\circ}C$에서 6$0^{\circ}C$사이의 온도범위에서 인장시험을 통하여 임계 파괴에너지의 거동을 고찰하고, 각각의 온도범위에서의 파단면을 SEM사진을 통해 비교 검토하였다.

Iodine-induced stress corrosion cracking tests of Zircaloy-4 cladding were undertaken using the modified infernal pressurization method. The effects of iodine concentration and applied stress were studied. The critical iodine concentration for SCC was found to be about 0.2 mg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 603$^{\circ}$K. The threshold stress was dependent on the test temperature and the mechanical properties of the specimen. The fracture surface showed that the crack propagated stepwise iron one grain to others until the material was unstable and then ruptured mechanically. The initial region showed the transgranular feature and the wedge-shaped cracks. As the crack proceeded, the transgranular and ductile-tearing mired feature appeared in the middle region.

In this study, fracture tests were carried out in order to investigate the fracture behavior of SFRC(Steel Fiber Peinforced Concrete) with initial cracks. The relationships between loading. strain, mld-span deflections and CMOD(Crack Mouth Opening Displacement) of the beams were observed under the three point loading system. The effect of the fiber content and the initial crack ratio on the concrete fracture behavior were studied and the fracture toughness, the critical energy release ratio and the fracture energy were also calcul ated from the test results. From the test results, it was known that when the fiber contents are between 0.5% and 1.0%, and 1.5% the average fracture energy of SFRC specimens is about 7~10 times. and about 15 times better than that of the plam concrete specimens respectively.ively.

This study investigates interlaminar fracture characteristics of Graphite/Epoxy composite (HFG Graphite/Epoxy) under mode I (opening mode), mode II (sliding mode) and mixed mode loading conditions. The effects on interlaminar fracture toughness due to different fiber orientations on the crack surface are also investigated. The antisymmetric test fixture proposed by M. Arcan is used for this test. Both critical stress intensity foctors and critical energy release rates were determined and several mixed mode fracture criteria were compared to the experimental data. Also fracture surfaces were investigaed to obtain informations on the fracture behaviors of Graphite/Epoxy composite by means of a scanning electron microscope(SEM).

An understanding of the failure mechanisms of the adhesive layer is decisive in interpreting the performance of a particular adhesive joint because the delamination is one of the most common failure modes of the laminated composites such as the fiber metal laminates. The interface between different materials, which is the case between the metal and the composite layers in this study, can be loaded through a combination of fracture modes. All loads can be decomposed into peel stresses, perpendicular to the interface, and two in-plane shear stresses, leading to three basic fracture mode I, II and III. To determine the load causing the delamination growth, the energy release rate should be identified in corresponding criterion involving the critical energy release rate ($G_C$) of the material. The critical energy release rate based on these three modes will be $G_{IC}$, $G_{IIC}$ and $G_{IIIC}$. In this study, to evaluate the fracture behaviors in the fracture mode I and II of the adhesive layer in fiber metal laminates, the double cantilever beam and the end-notched flexure tests were performed using the reference adhesive joints. Furthermore, it is confirmed that the experimental results of the adhesive fracture toughness can be applied by the comparison with the finite element analysis using cohesive zone model.

Many of researches regarding mechanical properties of composite materials are associated with humid environment and temperature. Especially the temperature is a very important factor influencing the design of thermoplastic composites. However, the effect of temperature on impact behavior of reinforced composites have not yet been fully explored. An approach which predicts critical fracture toughness G$_{IC}$ was performed by the impact test in this work. The main goal of this work is to study the effect of temperature and span of specimen supports on the results of Charpy impact test for GF/PE composite. The critical fracture energy and failure mechanism of GF/PE composites were investigated in the temperature range of $60^{\circ}C;to;-50^{\circ}C$ by the Charpy impact test. The critical fracture energy showed the maximum at the ambient temperature, and it tended to decrease as the temperature increased or decreased from the ambient temperature. The major failure mechanisms are the fiber matrix debonding, the fiber pull-out and/or delamination and the matrix deformation.n.
