The optimun laminated composition of the stiffened composite plates is studied from the view point of buckling strength. The finite element method is applied to the buckling analysis of the composite plates taking into account the effect of shear deformation through the plate thickness. The stiffened plate model is discretized using plate thickness and symmetrically stacked. Parametric study is carried out for the selection of the optimum laminate structure; optimum fiber angle sequence through the thickness. Laminate structure of $[-45^{\circ}/45^{\circ}/90^{\circ}/0^{\circ}]$, is found to give the best buckling strength. For the case of that layer number is more than eight, best result is obtained when layers of the same fiber angle are put together, leaving the laminate has the same fiber angle sequence as a whole.

Modern bulletproof armor must be light and have excellent penetration resistance to ensure the mobility and safety of soldiers and military vehicles. The ballistic performance of heterogeneous structures of laminated flat plates as bulletproof armor depends on the arrangement of constituent materials for the same weight. In this study, we analyze bulletproof performance according to the stacking sequence of laminated bulletproof armor composed of Kevlar, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, and ethylene-vinyl-acetate foam. A ballistic analysis was performed by colliding a 7.62 × 51 mm NATO cartridge's M80 bullet at a speed of 856 m/s with six lamination arrangements with constituent materials thicknesses of 5 mm and 6.5 mm. To evaluate the bulletproof performance, the residual speed and residual energy of the projectile that penetrated the heterogeneous laminated flat plates were measured. Simulation results confirmed that the laminated structure with a stacking sequence of Kevlar, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, and ethylene-vinyl-acetate foam had the best bulletproof performance for the same weight.

고체산화물연료전지(SOFC) cell은 cathode, electrolyte 및 cathode층으로 구성되어져 있는데, 이 cell의 적층은 EVD, CVD, sputtering등의 기상공정과 screen printing, tape casting, dip coating등의 습식 공정으로 제조한다. 적층 공정의 경우 supports의 크기와 형태에 따라 적용에 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 적층공정의 문제점을 해결코자 전사지를 제조하여 평관형 anode supports 위에 적층하여 cell을 제조하였다. 전사지를 이용한 적층방법은 매우 간단하고 두께와 형상제어가 쉽게 가능하였다. 본 연구를 상세히 언급하면 평관형 anode 지지체를 압출법을 통해 제작하였고, 반소된 지지체 위에 anode function layer와 electrolyte(YSZ)층을 형성한 후 $1400^{\circ}C$ 동시 소결하여 치밀한 전해질 층을 형성하였다. 그 후 cthode층을 형성한 후, $1200^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 소결하여 porous한 전극층을 형성하여 cell을 제작하였다. 그 후 Anode supporter위에 전사지를 이용하여 적층한 경우 cell 소결정도를 SEM으로 관찰하였고, 전기화학특성으로는 출력과 분극저항을 측정하였다. 이를 통해 새로운 구성소재 증착방법 즉 전사지를 이용하는 방법을 개발하였다.

이 글에서는 복합적층판의 역학적 특성인 층간분리, 모재균열, 초기파손 후의 거동에 대한 문헌을 간단히 서술하고 그 특성을 살펴 보았다. 이상에서 살펴본 바와 같이 이방성인 층으로 구성된 복합적층 구조의 역학적 특성은 균질인 단일구조와 달리 각층의 재료상수가 달라층과 층 사이의 층간응력이 존재하여 층간분리현상이 발생하지 않도록 섬유방향뿐만 아니라 적층순서를 중요한 설계변수로 고려하여야 한다. 또한 모재균열로 인한 기계적 거동의 변화를 이해하고 초기파손 후의 손상을 고려한 해석을 수행하여 복합적층 구조의 응력해석 및 파손, 강도예측을 한다.

Optimization Analysis of angle-ply laminated shells, having one pair of opposite edges supported, are investigated on the basis of the first-order shear deformation theory. The equations of motion of the shell are solved by the use of ritz method. A range of results are presented for composite shells to show the effects of lamination angle and number of layers on natural frequency. In addition, an analysis of the strain energy distributions is used as an aid for the better understanding of the vibration characteristics of the shells.

The purpose of present paper is to estimate the static and fatigue bending strengths of CFRP(carbon fiber reinforced plastic) laminates having impact damage(FOD). The specimens which are formed with the different stacking composition, EPOXY and PEEK matirx and orthotropic and quasi-isotropic laminated plates, are prepared for this experiment. A steel ball is impacted on CFRP laminates, generating impact damages, and the three-point fatigue bending test is carried out by using the impacted laminates to investigate the influence of the stackin composition on the fatigue strength of CFRP laminates.

Multilayered structures include lamination by relatively thick plies and thin interlayers. For efficient peridynamic analysis of dynamic fracturing multilayered structures, the interlayer is modeled using ghost peridynamic particles while the ply is formulated via real peridynamics. With the nonlocal ghost interlayer, one may keep the discretization resolution low for the ply. In this study, the characteristics of dynamic wave propagation through the nonlocal ghost interlayer in peridynamic analysis are investigated. It is observed that the interlayer not only binds adjacent plies, but also significantly influences energy transfer between plies, and thereby their deformation and motion. In addition, near a surface or boundary, peridynamic particles do not have a full nonlocal neighborhoods. This causes the effective material properties near the surface to be different from those in the bulk. Surface correction based on neighborhood volumes is employed. The impact of surface correction on wave propagation in multilayered structures is investigated.

Fiberglass-Reinforced Plastic (FRP) composites have been used for small fishing boats and leisure boats for many years. These composites have different physical characteristics, depending on the constitution of lay-up and manufacturing method. Recently, new manufacturing methods, such as vacuum infusion, have been used to make the composites lighter and stronger. In this research, the mechanical properties of fiberglass reinforcements with constitution of lay-up, manufacturing method, and two different resins were investigated experimentally. It was found that the mechanical properties of FRP composites increased with increasing thickness, with the use of vacuum infusion method, and with the use of vinyl ester resin. The mechanical properties of diverse FRP composites can be used as a practical guide for selecting appropriate materials for specific applications.

In this paper, bending capacities of glulams with different configurations of cross-section were evaluated. These configurations included horizontal(BH), vertical(BVN), vertical with vertical plywood (BVV) and vertical combination of lamination with horizontal plywood(BVH). Full-scale bending tests were performed to investigate the effect of different section configurations on bending strength(MOR) and stiffness(MOE) of glulam. Compared with type BH, MOR of glulam with type BVN configuration was improved about 23%, which was considered to be caused by defect dispersion effect, while MOE of glulams with these two types of configurations were similar. Because MOE of plywood is generally smaller than that of solid wood laminar, MOE of type BVH glulam decreased about 15%, but in the case of type BVV glulam, MOR was improved without any reduction of MOE. The reason of this result could be undersood in the view of shear-reinforcement effect, which was verified from analysis of fracture mode. From the results of this study, it was concluded that bending capacity of glulam could be improved by proper section design, such as laminar arrangement and shear reinforcement.

In this paper, design technique using genetic algorithms(GA) for design optimization of composite leaf springs is presented here. After the initial design has been validated by the car plate spring as a finite element model, the genetic algorithm suggests the process of optimizing the number of layers of composite materials and their angles. Through optimization process, the weight reduction process of leaf springs and the number of repetitions are compared to the existing algorithm results. The safety margin is calculated by organizing a finite element model to verify the integrity of the structure by applying an additive sequence optimized through the genetic algorithm to the structure. When GA is applied, layer thickness and layer angle of complex leaf springs have been obtained, which contributes to the achievement of minimum weight with appropriate strength and stiffness. A reduction of 65.6% original weight is reached when a leaf steel spring is replaced with a leaf composite spring under identical requirement of design parameters and optimization.
