Carbon fiber-reinforced plastic, well known high specific strength and high specific stiffness, have been widely used in the aircraft industry. Mostly the CFRP structure is fabricated by lamination of carbon fiber or carbon prepreg, which has major disadvantage called delamination. Delamination is usually produced due to absence of the through-thickness direction fiber. In this study, three-dimensional carbon preform woven in three directions is used for fabrication of aircraft wing unit structure, a part of repeated structure in aircraft wing. The unit structure include skin, stringer and rib were prepared by resin transfer molding method. After, the 3D structure was compared with laminate structure through compression test. The results show that 3D structure is not only effective to prevent delamination but improved the mechanical strength. Therefore, the 3d preform structure is expected to be used in various fields requiring delamination prevention, especially in the aircraft industry.

The static and fatigue characteristics of polyurethane foam cored sandwich structures are investigated. Three types of the specimens with the glass fabric faces and the polyurethane foam core are used; non-stitched. stitched, and stiffened sandwich specimen. Especially additional structural reinforcements with the twisted polyester and glass fiber for thickness direction are made to stitched sandwich structure panel to minimize the delamination of structure which is stitched the upper and lower faces through the core and the resin is impregnated Into stitched fiber with the characteristics of low viscosity of resin at resin flow temperature and cured together with during the curing process. Bending strength of stitched specimen which is 50 mm $50{\times}50{\;}mm$ pitched is improved by 50 % as com-pared with non-stitched specimen and stiffened specimen is improved 10 times more than non-stitched structure. After fatigue testing of $10^6$cycles by 20% of ultimate load under monotonic load, the bending fatigue strength of non-stitched specimen is decreased by 27% of monotonic bending strength, 39% for stitched structure and 20% for stiffened specimen. To verify the aging effect of polyurethane form core, Ultrasonic C-scanning equipment is used to detect the damage of skin laminate alone after fatigue test. From results of UT C-scan images, there is no defect that can be damaged occurred during fatigue test. It is concluded that the decrease of bending strength for foam cored sandwich specimen is caused by the decrease of stiffness due to the aging of polyurethane foam core during fatigue cycles.

최근 해상풍력 블레이드가 대형화됨에 따라 보다 가볍고 강한 재료가 요구되고 있다. 현재 주로 사용되고 있는 복합재는 발사우드나 PVC 폼 등을 코어소재로 하고, 유리섬유나 탄소섬유 등을 보강섬유로 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 사용되고 있는 복합재에 대한 특성을 알아보고, 최근 흡음, 충격 및 열에 강한 발포 알루미늄을 이용한 복합재를 해상풍력 블레이드 제조에 적용하여, 구조 강도 실험을 실시함으로써 기존 복합재와 구조 강도 및 비용 등을 비교 검토하여 우수한 복합재를 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해 대형구조물인 블레이드를 제작하기 위해 적절한 크기의 발포 알루미늄을 상호 접합하기 위한 방법을 연구하고자 하며, 목포대학교에서 보유중인 만능재료시험기(100 Ton)를 활용하여 인장, 압축, 굽힘 실험을 실시하고, 스킨재 변화, 코어재의 밀도와 두께 변화를 고려하여 다양한 복합재의 강도를 비교하고자 한다. 또한, 기존에 사용되고 있는 복합재와 발포 알루미늄을 이용한 복합재의 재료비 및 가공비를 추정하고 경제적인 복합재를 제시하고자 한다.

In this study, efforts were made to understand the propagation of electromagnetic wave through the foam core sandwich structure by the analytical model. Foam core sandwich structure is composed of glass/epoxy composite skins and foam core. Transmittance and reflectance of the arbitrary linearly polarized incident TEM waves through the unidirectional composites, foam and foam core sandwich structures were determined as functions of thickness, fiber orientation of composites, incident angle and polarization angle by the analytical model. From the results of the analysis, the general tendency of transmittance and reflectance of electromagnetic wave through composites, foam and foam core sandwich structures was obtained.

The present study provides structural design and analysis of main wing and horizontal tail of a small scale WIG(Wing in Ground Effect) vehicle which has been developed as a part of the high speed maritime transportation system for the future of Korea. Weight saving as well as structural stability could be achieved by skin-spar with foam sandwich design and with wide application of carbon/epoxy composite material. A commercial FEM code, NASTRAN, was utilized to confirm the structural safety and stability through sequential design modifications to meet the final design goal. In addition, each wing and the fuselage were fastened together by eight insert bolts with high strength to accomodate easy assembling and disassembling as well as to guarantee a service life longer than 20 years.

In this study, structural design of the propeller blade for turboprop aircraft was performed. The propeller shall have high strength to get the thrust to fly at high speed. The high stiffness and strength carbon/epoxy composite material was used for the major structure and skin-spar-foam sandwich structural type was adopted for improvement of lightness. As a design procedure for the present study, firstly the structural design load was estimated through investigation on aerodynamic load and then flanges of spars from major bending loads and the skin from shear loads were preliminarily sized using the netting rule. In order to investigate the structural safety and stability, stress analysis was performed by finite element analysis code MSC. NASTRAN. Finally, it is investigated that designed blade have high efficiency and structural safety to analyze of aerodynamic and structural design results.
