A stiffness model has been proposed to predict elastic constants of twisted yam composites. The model is based upon the unit cell structure, the coordinate transformation, and the volume averaging of compliance constants for constituent materials. For the correlation of analytic results with experiments, composite samples of various yam twist angles were tested, and strength and Young's modulus under tensile, compressive, and shear loading have been obtained. The sample was fabricated by the RTM process using glass yarns and epoxy resin. The correlations of elastic constants showed relatively good agreements. The model provides the predictions of the three-dimensional engineering constants, which are valuable input data for the analytic characterization of textile composites made of twisted yam.

For designing concrete structures, engineers are provided data from unidirectional flexure test in most cases. But real structural components such as pavements and deck panel are subjected to multiaxial stress throughout their body. Therefore, biaxial flexure test for concrete may be considered as a gage of the performance of concrete in service. In this paper, we propose the optimum biaixial flexture test (BFT) to measure the biaxial flexural strength of concrete. This method are an improved version of the ring-on-ring test which have been used extensively in the fields of ceramics and biomaterials. The optimum geometry of the test specimen was determined by using a three-dimensional finite element analysis. A series of test data obtained from the proposed test method is provided to show that the proposed optimum biaxial flexure test method can be used to identify the biaxial tensile strength of concrete.

6Mo급 슈퍼 스테인리스강의 내식성은 여러 환경에서 여러 가지의 부식 시험 방법을 통해서 확띤되어 왔다. 이 합금이 보이는 탁월한 내식성 때문에 해수 설비 계통,정유 설비,원자력 발전소의 열교환기 등의 중요 재료로서 그 사용 용도가 급격히 증가하고 있다. 그런데 방사선의 영향을 받게 되는 설비에 금속 재료가 사용되는 경우,특히 경수로의 노내 구조물, 액체 금속로의 열교환기, 핵융합로의 제1벽 재료 등 에서는 합금 원소가 방사성 환경에 의하여 제거되는 현상이 나타난다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 상황을 미리 재료 제조 차원에서 모사하여 탄소량과 질소량의 함량 을 달리 한 6Mo급 슈퍼 스테인리스강을 제조하여 미세 조직, 기계적 성질 및 부식 특성의 변화에 대하여 연구하였다. 진공 고주파 유도 용해로를 이용하여 탄소량과 질소량이 각기 변화된 슈퍼 스테인리스강을 용해 한 뒤 아르곤 가스 분위기에서 $1180^{\circ}C$로 soaking하고 열간 압연을 행하였다. 열간 압연으로 표변에 생성된 산화 스케일을 불산과 질산의 혼합 용액으로 제거한 뒤 냉간 압연을 행하였다. 이 냉연 판재에 대하여 $1150^{\circ}C$로 소둔하여 각 실험에 사용하였다. 광학 현미경을 이용하여 미세 조직의 변화를 관찰하였으며, 상온과 고온($520^{\circ}C$)에서 인장 시험을 행하였으며, 경도 측정을 행하였다. 또한 양극 분극 시험과 비등 질산 침지 시험 및 비등 40% NaOH 용액에서의 일정 연신율 시험을 행하 였다. 탄소 함량이 증가할수록 항복 강도 및 인장 강도는 증가하고 있으며 연신율은 감 소하는 일반적인 경향을 보였으며 비등 질산 시험에서는 탄소량에 관계없이 매우 우수한 내식성을 쁘였다. 또한 비등 상태의 40% NaOH 용액에서의 응력 부식 균열 시험 결과, 탄소량이 증가할수록 부식 저항성이 증가하고 있는 것으로 평가되었다. 한 편 질소량이 증까할수록 결정립이 미세화되었으며 경도값이 상승하였다. 이들 합금 에 대한 양극 분극 시험 결과, 질소량의 변화가 탄소량의 변화보다 내식성에 큰 영향 을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Interfacial and microfailure properties of carbon fiber/epoxy matrix composites were evaluated using both tensile fragmentation and compressive Broutman tests with an aid of acoustic emission (AE) monitoring. A polymeric maleic anhydride coupling agent and a monomeric amino-silane coupling agent were used via the electrodeposition (ED) and the dipping applications, respectively. Both coupling agents exhibited significant improvements in interfacial shear strength (IFSS) compared to the untreated case under tensile and compressive tests. The typical microfailure modes including fiber break of cone-shape, matrix cracking, and partial interlayer failure were observed during tensile test, whereas the diagonal slippage in fiber ends was observed under compressive test. For both loading types, fiber breaks occurred around just before and after yielding point. In both the untreated and treated cases AE amplitudes were separately distributed for the tensile testing, whereas they were closely distributed for the compressive tests. It is because of the difference in failure energies of carbon fiber between tensile and compressive loading. The maximum AE voltage for the waveform of carbon or basalt fiber breakages under tensile tests exhibited much larger than those under compressive tests, which can provide the difference in the failure energy of the individual failure processes.

Knowledge of the failure behavior of friction materials considering their intermediate principal stress is related to an understanding of situations where these materials might be used: for example, the stability of deep-seated boreholes and fault slip analysis. This study designed equipment for physically implementing true triaxial compression and used it to assess specimens of plaster, a friction material. The material's mechanical behaviors are discussed based on the results. The applicability of the 3D failure criteria are also reviewed. The tested specimens were molded cuboids of width, length, and height 52, 52, and 104 mm, respectively. A total of 24 true triaxial compression tests were performed under various combinations of 𝜎₃ and 𝜎₂ conditions. Conventional uniaxial and triaxial compression tests were employed to estimate the mechanical properties of the plaster for use as parameters for 3D failure criteria. Examining the stress-strain relations of the plaster materials showed that a large difference between the intermediate principal stress and the minimum principal stress indicated strong brittle behavior. The mechanical behavior of the plaster used here reflects the change of intermediate principal stress. Nonlinear multiple regression analysis on the test data in the principal space showed that the modified Wiebols-Cook failure criterion and the modified Lade failure criterion were the most suitable 3D failure criteria for the tested plaster.
