본 고에서는 균질화법의 정식화를 이용하여 복합재료의 거시적 균질화된 재료상수를 구하고, 이 재료상수를 이용하여 거시구조물의 변형과 응력을 구하고, 이로부터 다시 미시구조의 응력분포와 변형도를 구하는 방법을 기술하였다. 주기성을 가정한 균질화법은 복합재료 구조물의 물성평가와 거동예측에 대한 매우 적절한 수치해석 방법이다. 균질화법은 이러한 선형변형의 문제뿐만 아니라, 내압을 존재하는 빈공간 소재의 물성, 기지재료와 강화재료 계면의 미끄러짐 등으로 인한 미세 파손현상 등의 예측이 가능하다. 그외에도 탄소성 대변형 거동 이론과 균질화법을 함께 적용하여, squeeze casting에서 발생하기 쉬운 계면분리나 파단 등의 미소결함과 같은 2차 성형성의 예측도 가능하다.

일반적으로, 고분자 매트릭스에 층상 점토광물이 분산되어 얻어지는 복합재료는 세가지 형태를 이룬다. 첫째 통상의 복합재료는 고분자 매트릭스 내에 점토입자가 고루게 분산된 상태를 말하며, 둘째 점토 층 사이에 고분자 모노머나 올리고머가 일부분 삽입된 삽입형 복합재료(intercalated composite)이며, 셋째 점토 층 사이에 삽입된 모노머나 올리고머의 경화 또는 중합반응을 통해 점토내의 한층 한층 균일하게 매트릭스 내에 분산된 박리형 나노복합소재(exfoliated nanocomposite) 이다. 이들 복합재료들 중 박리형 나노복합소재는 적은 양의 점토가 단위 층으로 고분자 매트릭스에 완전히 분산되어 다양한 물성의 향상이 기대되는 재료이다. 따라서 최근 고분자의 기계적 강도, 팽윤 저항성 그리고 차폐특성 둥 전반적인 물성을 향상시키는 방법으로 층상 점토광물의 층 사이에 다양한 유기물을 삽입하여 층간거리를 확장시킨 유기 점토광물을 제조하고 이를 고분자 소재에 첨가하여 박리형 나노복합소재를 제조하는 방법이 많은 연구가 수행되고 있다.

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.

In this study, the characteristic of a 3-D micro-woven material, which is one of the newly developed periodic open-cell structure, is analyzed through various computational simulations. To increase the accuracy of the numerical simulations, the distance between each directional wire is parameterized using six design variables, and its model geometry is precisely discretized using tetrahedron elements. Using the improved computational model, the material properties of the mechanical, thermal, and fluidic behavior are investigated using commercial software and compared with the previous experimental results. By changing the space between the x- and y-directional wires, a parametric test is performed to determine the tendency of the change in the material properties. In addition, the correlation between two different material properties is investigated using the Ashby chart. The result can further be used in determining the optimal pattern and wire spacing in 3-D micro-woven materials.

This is concerned with the structural reliability analysis(RA) considering uncertainties in material properties. This method is performed by the stochastic process using Kriging with calculating the distribution of probability and equation of limit state for saving calculated and analyzed time. The proposed methodology is applied to the rocket motor case and compared with monte-calro simulation in efficiency and accuracy of this process.

In this study, to enhance the electrical insulation of composite specimens in addition to the improved mechanical properties, the epoxy composite were reinforced with carbon nanotubes and silica particles. Tensile strength, Young's modulus, dynamic mechanical behavior, and electrical resistivity of the specimens were measured with varied contents of the two fillers. The mechanical and electrical properties were discussed, and the experimental results related to the mechanical properties of the specimens were compared with those from several micromechanics models. The hybrid composites specimens with 0.6 wt％ of carbon nanotubes and 50 wt％ of silica particles showed improved mechanical properties, with increase in tensile strength and Young's modulus up to 11％ and 35％, respectively, with respect to those of the baseline specimen. The electrical conductivity of the composite specimens with carbon nanotubes filler also improved. Further, the electrical insulation of the hybrid composites specimens with the two fillers improved in addition to the improvement in mechanical properties.

The material properties of heat resistant materials at power plants are affected by thermal aging as operating time is accumulated. In this study, the influence of thermal aging on yield strength, tensile strength and fracture behavior for Mod.9Cr-1Mo (ASME Grade 91) steel which is a material widely adopted for Generation IV nuclear energy system has been investigated and analyzed. Service exposed Gr.91 steel materials sampled from a piping system of an ultra-supercritical (USC) plant in Korea with accumulated operation time of 73,716 hours were used for material testing. The test results of the service exposed material specimens were compared with those of the virgin Gr.91 steel specimens. Those test data were compared with the material properties of ASME code and RCC-MRx code. Conservatisms of the material properties in the design codes have been quantified based on the comparisons of those from virgin and service exposed material specimens.

In this study, we compare the engineering seismic design method considering the physical properties of piping materials and the specification-oriented design method according to the seismic design standards of fire fighting equipment. In the case of the seismic design method considering the physical properties of piping materials, the safety of the piping will be analyzed through the combined value of the torsional stress and the bending stress generated in the piping. However, in the case of the design-centered design method, instead of the safety of the piping material, it calculates the moving force of the pipe and interprets whether or not the shaking prevention strut can bear. Fire extinguishing equipment piping is possible through safety analysis of stress and displacement of piping material because piping safety can not be secured via unstable force generated in a certain section with one connected structure is there. Therefore, it is necessary to apply analytical method considering seismic performance of building structure and material properties of piping for seismic design of safe fire extinguishing system piping.

The effect of acid-base treatments of carbon blacks (CBs) was investigated in the mechanical properties of CBs/rubber composites. The surface characteristics of the CBs were determined by the pH, acid-base values, and surface energetics. Their mechanical properties of the composites were also evaluated by the crosslink density $(V_e)$ and tearing energy (T). As an experimental result, acidically treated CBs led to the increase of the specific component $({\gamma}s^{sp})$, resulting in decreasing the mechanical properties of the composites. However, basically treated CBs showed a higher value of the dispersive component $({\gamma}s^L)$ than that of the untreated or acidically treated CBs. It was also found that the interaction of the CBs-rubber was improved, resulting in the improvement of the crosslink density and mechanical properties of the composites. It was then remarked that the acid-base characteristics of the CB surfaces made an important role in improving the physical properties of the rubber matrix composites.

Carbon-based nanoplatelets such as graphene oxide (GO) sheets and graphite nanoplatelets (GNPs) are frequently used as conductive nanofillers for polymer nanocomposites. In this study, polystyrene (PS)/GO and PS/GNP nanocomposites were prepared through a latex technology and investigated to compare the effect of nanofillers on rheological and electrical properties of the PS nanocomposites. PS particles were prepared by emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization and GO was synthesized by using the modified Hummers' method from graphite. Hydrophilic GO was dispersed in aqueous PS suspension, but hydrophobic GNPs were dispersed with the help of a surfactant. In comparison with PS/GO nanocomposites, the rheological properties of PS/GNP counterparts were not too high because GNP existed in aggregates of graphene layers. Conducting pathways of PS/GO and PS/GNP nanocomposites were achieved at the electrical percolation threshold of 0.50 and 5.82 wt%, respectively. The reason for enhanced electrical conductivity in PS/GO nanocomposites is that GO was thermally reduced during molding.
