본 논문에서는 이산 변수 최적화에 적합한 유전 알고리듬을 이용하여 복합재 적층 패치의 최적강도설계를 수행하였다. 기저판(substrate)와 접착제(adhesive), 그리고 복합재 적층 패치로 이루어진 구조물에서 패치의 강도를 효율적으로 구하기 위해서 응력 함수 기반의 해석적 방법을 도입하였다. 면외 방향의 응력 함수를 가정하여 가상 공액일의 법칙(complementary virtual work principle)에 적용하였으며, 복합재 패치의 자유 경계조건으로부터 면내 방향의 응력함수를 결정하였다. 응력 함수를 통하여 구한 층간 응력 값은 자유 경계 효과를 잘 나타내었고, 이를 이용하여 패치의 강도 해석을 수행하였다. 강도 해석 시, 복합재 패치의 파괴 기준은 면내 응력들에 대해서는 최대 응력 척도를 사용하였으며, 층간 응력들에 대해서는 quadratic delamination 척도를 사용하였다. 유전 알고리듬을 이용한 최적강도설계 과정에서는 임의의 염색체가 주어진 적층 구속 조건을 만족할 수 있게 수정(repairing)하는 과정을 도입하였다. 또한 다수의 전역해(global optima)를 효과적으로 찾기 위해서 multiple elitism 기법을 도입하였다. 응력 함수 기반의 강도 해석방법과 유전 알고리듬과의 연계를 통한 복합재 적층 패치의 강도최적설계 기법은 패치 구조물의 해석 및 설계에 있어서 효율적인 도구로서 사용할 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.

The interlaminar problems near the free edge of composite laminates are analyzed in this paper. CFRP specimen (［+40/-40］s) and interleaved specimen (［+40//-40］s) with non-woven carbon tissue (NWCT) are discussed under tensile loading condition. The symbol “//”means that the NWCT is located between the CFRP interfaces. The NWCT has carbon short fibers which are discretely distributed with the in-plane random orientation. It was reported/sup 3)/ that the Mode Ⅱ interlaminar fracture toughness of CFRP laminates with NWCT is increased largely and the Mode I interlaminar fracture toughness is not changed significantly. Mode Ⅲ interlaminar fracture toughness is also an important factor in composite structures. But it is not easy to experimentally investigate the Mode Ⅲ interlaminar fracture toughness. The objective of this work is to study the effect of the NWCT and to fundamentally understand the Mode Ⅲ interlaminar shear characteristics of laminated composites with NWCT in the vicinity of a free edge by using finite element method analysis.

Orthotropic laminates, such as [$0^{\circ}6$/$90^{\circ}6$]s and [$90^{\circ}6$/$0^{\circ}6$]s, were performed, using a commercial nonlinear finite element method. Interlaminar stress distributions, around the hole curve free-edge, were calculated. The delamination bearing strengths of pin joints were predicted, using the modified delamination failure criterion. These stress distributions were presented along the radial lines and around the free-edge of the hole. Further, three-dimensional non-linear contact analysis of orthotropic laminates was conducted to investigate the effect of friction. In this paper, laminates with a circular hole were taken to study interlaminar stresses the curved edge. This study may assist in the design of a thick composite laminate with mechanically pin joints.

A refined two-dimensional analysis method, taking into account the crack opening deformation, is proposed for the evaluation of stress distributions in transverse cracked cross-ply laminates. The interlaminar stresses which play an important role in laminate failure are evaluated using the concept of interface layer. A series expansion of the displacements is employed and the thermal residual stresses and Poisson's effects in the laminated are taken into consideration in the formulation. The stress distributions are compared with finite element results. The proposed method represents well the characteristics of the stress distributions. The through-the-thickness variation of the stress distribution is remarkable near the transverse crack due to the crack opening deformation. The interlaminar stresses have significant values at the transverse crack tip and the proposed analysis can be applied as a basis for the prediction of the induced delamination onset by using appropriate failure criteria.

In order to understand the delamination between leadframe and epoxy molding compound in an electronic packaging of surface mounting type, the stress intensity factor, T-stress and J-integral in fracture mechanics are obtained. The effects of geometry, material properties and molding process temperature on the delamination are investigated taking into account the temperature dependence of the material properties, which simulates as more realistic condition. As the crack length increases the J-integral increases, which suggest that the crack propagates if it starts growing from the small size. The effects of the material properties and molding process temperature on stress intensity factor, T-stress is and J-integral are less significant than the chip size for the practical cases considered here. The T-stress is negative in all eases, which is in agreement with observation that interfacial crack is not kinked until the crack approaches the edge of the leadframe.

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).

A simplified method for determining the three mode(I, II, III) components of the strain energy release rate of free-edge delaminations in composite laminates is proposed. The interlaminar stresses are evaluated using the interface moment and the interface shear forces which are obtained from the equilibrium equations at the interface between the adjacent layers. Deformation of an edge-delaminated laminate is analysed by using a generalized quasi-three dimensional classical laminated plate theory. The analysis provides closed-form expression for the three components of the strain energy release rate. The analyses are performed for composite laminates subjected to uniaxial tension, with free-edge delaminations located symmetrically and asymmetrically with respect to the laminate midplane. The analysis results agreed with a finite element solution using the virtual crack closure technique.

Carbon/epoxy는 기존의 금속재료에 비해 피로강도 및 기계적 특성이 매우 우수하다. 따라서 최근 튜브형태의 Carbon/epoxy 활용방안이 부각되고 있다. 그러나 Carbon/epoxy는 탄소재료의 특성상 고압, 충격 및 부식에 매우 취약하다. 또한, 장기간 고압피로 및 크리프에 노출될 경우, 금속재료에서는 관찰할 수 없는 층간분리(delamination)가 발생된다. 이러한 층간분리는 섬유방향과 평행하게 진전될 때 급격한 파손을 야기하므로 층간분리에 대한 메커니즘을 이해하고 그 방지책을 강구하는 것은 매우 중요하다.(중략)

Through-the-thickness properties of thick-walled cylindrical composites are required to determine structural performances because interlaminar tensile stress is primarily responsible for structural failure of the composites during their curing process. It is necessary for evaluating the tensile properties to find individual test methods to find appropriate methods because there are no recognised international standards(test methods and test specifications) available for generating reliable tensile properties in the direction. This paper has performed an experimental Study to measure that properties of carbon fabric/phenolic composites are produced by domestic company. Several test methods using an aluminum specimen were compared and evaluated. The best method, found out, was adopted to measure transverse through-the-thickness properties of composite materials. The results show that strain trends on four faces of composite specimen are the same.
