최근에는 탄소섬유복합재료(CFRP)는 우주 및 민간 항공산업분야에 널리 활용이 되고 있는 실정이다. CFRP 복합재는 적층구성에 따라 기계물성치 및 강성에 크게 영향이 미치므로 가장 대표적인 직교이방성 적층재의 적층배향을 비파괴 탐상하는 것은 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 CFRP 적층재의 섬유배향에 가장 민감한 초음파 전단파를 활용하기 위해 2개의 종파 초음탐촉자를 이용하는 새로운 기법을 제안하였다. 또한 초음파 전단파를 발생하기 위해서는 탐촉자 밑면에 접촉매질인 태운꿀을 사용하는데 초음파시험하는 도중에 물성치중에 하나인 즉 점성이 상당히 변하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 2개의 종파용 초음파탐촉자를 이용해 전단파를 발생시킴으로써 접촉매질문제를 상당히 경감할 수 있는 것으로 나타났으며 여기에서 발생한 전단파가 CFRP 복합적층판의 섬유배향에 매우 민감함을 알 수 있었다.

Mechanical test of the Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics (CFRP) composite specimen was performed based on the ASTM code at the ambient and low temperature. Tension, compression in-plane shear, and inter-laminar shear properties of the composite laminates were evaluated experimentally using the Universal Testing Machine(UTM) system at the temperature of $24^{\circ}C$,$-76^{\circ}C$ , and $-196^{\circ}C$. From the test results it was found that the CFRP chosen for the Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research(KSTAR) magnet supporting post had smaller tensile strength and larger compressive strength at the low temperature than those of the ambient temperature because of material ductility.

Rehabilitations of reinforced concrete(RC) structures using advanced fibre-reinfored plastic(FRP) composites has become very popular in last few years. Typical method of strengthening strategy using FRP composite is bonding the CFRP plate or sheet on the surface of existing concrete structures. Many researches, however, have shown that bonding FRP plate or sheet on the surface of concrete has tendancy to debond prematurely induced by stress concentrations at the end of the plate. In order for overcoming the premature failure, the filling-up method which places FRP-rod into the existing concrete sawing groove has been developed. Through filling-up test results, aims of this research is to investigate the efficiencies of the filling-up method and is to determine the availabilities of traditional flexural theories that has provided all over the world.

Existing test methods for thick-section specimens ( 4mm) have not provided precise compressive properties to date for the analysis and design of thick structure. A survey of the failure behaviour of such thick specimens revealed that the failure initiated at the top corner of the specimen and propagated down and across the width of the specimen as premature failure, not typically reported for thin compression specimens. In the current study, the premature failure was successfully avoided during compressive testing and the failure mode was quite similar regardless of increasing specimen thickness and specimen volume. Failure mode was similar regardless of increasing specimen thickness and specimen volume, i.e. brooming failure mode combined with longitudinal splitting, interlaminar cracking, fibre breakage and kinkband formation (fibre microbuckling). Nevertheless, average failure strengths of the specimens decreased with increasing specimen thicnkiness from 2mm to 8mm with the T800/924C system (36% strength reduction) and specimen volumes from scaling factor I to scaling factor 4 with the IM7/8552 system (46% strength reduction). It was revealed from the literature$^{11}$ that the thickness effect and scaling effect arc caused by manufacturing defects such as void content and fibre waviness.

In the manufacture of CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composite) composite structures, various independent components join by bolts and pins. Holes for bolts and pins have an effect on the failure strength of such structures, because those act as notches in structures. The failure characteristic of such structures are different from those of plain plate subject to remote load. In this paper, tensile properties of woven CFRP composite plates with laminates of $0^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ were obtained according to ASTM D 3039. By using obtained tensile failure strength and Tan-Cheng failure criterion, tensile failure strength of CFRP laminate with arbitrary fiber angle were evaluated. Also, the degradation of tensile properties by center hole(${\phi}10mm$) with a remote load was evaluated and the failure strengths were applied to Tan's failure criterion, similarly.

This research work has been carried out for finding J-integral in mode II of CFRP(carbon fiber reinforced plastics) laminate plates based on the classical bar theory in dynamic conditions with consideration of the effect of inertia forces, eventually to lead to finding the dynamic inter-layer fracture toughness. Dynamic inter-layer fracture toughness was found by a self-made ENF(End Notched Flexure) experimental apparatus using Split Hopkinson's Bar(SHPB), and also observed the variation of the fracture toughness haying different resin contents and fiber arrangements of CFRP specimen([$0_3^{\circ}/90_3^{\circ}/0_6^{\circ}/90_3^{\circ}/0_3^{\circ}$], [$0_{20}^{\circ}$], [$0_5^{\circ}/90_{10}^{\circ}/0_5^{\circ}$]). As an experimental result, in either cases of quasi-static or dynamic load condition, the critical load and the inter-layer fracture toughness increased sharply depending on the increase of resin contents. Therefore, it could, be concluded that the effect by resin contents is the major factor determining the inter-layer fracture toughness in the CFRP laminate plates.

Recently, carbon fiber reinforced plastic(CFRP) composite materials have been widely used in various fields of engineering because of its advanced properties. Also, CFRP composite materials offer new design flexibilities, corrosion and wear resistance, low thermal conductivity and increased fatigue life. However CFRP composite materials are susceptible to impact damage due to their lack of through-thickness reinforcement and it causes large drops in the load-carrying capacity of a structure. Therefore, the impact damage behavior and subsequently load-carrying capacity of impacted composite materials deserve careful investigation. In this study, the residual strength and impact characteristics of plain-woven CFRP composites with impact damage are investigated under axial tensile test. By using obtained residual strength and Tan-Cheng failure criterion, residual strength of CFRP laminate with arbitrary fiber angle were evaluated.

최근에는 탄소섬유강화복합재료(CFRP)는 우수한 기계적인 물성치와 수월한 설계특성으로 인해 우주.민간 항공산업분야 뿐만 아니라 여러분야에 응용성이 매우 높다. 그러나 CFRP 복합적층판으로 제작된 구조물은 충격손상을 받을 시에는 50-75%치 강도가 낮아지는 취약성을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에는 CFRP복합재의 구조건전성 및 결함여부를 비파괴적으로 검사 및 탐상을 하기 위해서 시도하였다. 특히, C-scanner의 수침조에서 충격손상을 받은 시험편을 집어넣어 자동 데이터 획득 시스템을 구동하여 현장응용성이 가장 높은 일 방향 초음파측정 (one-sided ultrasonic measurement) 방법인 평가기법을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 일방향 초음파 피치캐치방법이 CFRP 복합적층판내에서 일반 수직 초음파 탐상기법보다 훨씬 민감함을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, this study aims at the evaluation on the characteristics of CFRP laminate plates using a falling weight impact tester. The experiment was conducted on several laminates of different orientation. A system was built far measur- ing the impact strength of CFRP laminates in consideration of stress wave propagation theory using a falling weight impact tester. Delamination areas of impacted specimens for the different ply orientation were measured with ultrasonic C- scanner to find correlation between impact energy and delamination area. Absorbed energy of quasi-isotropic specimen having flour interfaces was higher than that of orthotropic laminates with two interfaces. The more interfaces, the greater the energy absorbed. The absorbed energy oft hybrid specimen containing a GFRP layer was higher than that of normal specimens.

There has been a continuous study on the weight reduction of structure by composites. Unlike isotropic materials, the physical properties of composites vary according to the direction of laminate and the order of lamination. Therefore, in the case of composite ladders, it is essential to perform structural analysis to verify the planned design. In this study, ladder was designed by applying fabric material. In addition, the effect of loading position on the ladder was analyzed through finite element analysis, and structural performance was analyzed by selecting the most problematic location. We analyzed the effect of stacking order on the structural strength of the ladder by analyzing the structure by applying various stacking sequence and measuring the failure value in each layer.
