This paper presents design optimization of a new Active Twist Rotor (ATR) blade and conducts its aeroelastic analysis in forward flight condition. In order to improve a twist actuation performance, the present ATR blade utilizes a single crystal piezoelectric fiber composite actuator and the blade cross-sectional layout is designed through an optimization procedure. The single crystal piezoelectric fiber composite actuator has excellent piezoelectric strain performance when compared with the previous piezoelectric fiber composites such as Active Fiber Composites (AFC) and Macro Fiber Composites (MFC). Further design optimization gives a cross-sectional layout that maximizes the static twist actuation while satisfying various blade design requirements. After the design optimization is completed successfully, an aeroelastic analysis of the present ATR blade in forward flight is conducted to confirm the efficiency in reducing the vibratory loads at both fixed- and rotating-systems. Numerical simulation shows that the present ATR blade utilizing single crystal piezoelectric fiber composites may reduce the vibratory loads significantly even with much lower input-voltage when compared with that used in the previous ATR blade. However, for an application of the present single crystal piezoelectric actuator to a full scaled rotor blade, several issues exist. Difficulty of manufacturing in a large size and severe brittleness in its material characteristics will need to be examined.

Effective material properties of active fiber composites with interdigitated electrodes are derived as a function of the fiber volume fraction. For the purpose of applying the rule of mixture, three unit cell models are introduced; each for the deformation and stress continuities in the out of plane and in-plane directions, and the continuity of the electrical displacement in the longitudinal direction. Derived effective material properties are compared with the results by the finite element method; good agreements are observed between them. As an application, the electromechanical behavior of the angle ply laminates with the active fiber layers bonded on the top and bottom surfaces are investigated; the angle of piezoelectric fiber to maximize the twisting curvature is obtained using the present model.

최근에 소개된 능동 FSS(active frequency selective surface) 또는 ESS(electromagnetic smart screen)는 2차원 금속섬유 복합재료에서 금속섬유의 부하저항을 변화시킴으로써 복합재료의 분산특성을 변경시키는 기술이다. 본 논문에서는 부하저항의 변화에 따른 ESS의 분산특성을 효율적으로 계산하기 위해 GEC(generalized equivalent conductor) 기법을 기반으로 수정하여 적용한다. 부하저항에 따른 ESS의 투과계수와 유효유전율을 1~40 GHz의 범위에서 시뮬레이션 한다. 또한, 부하저항을 변경함으로써 공진주파수와 대역폭을 변경할 수 있음을 보인다.

A simple method has been developed to detect the bonding condition of active fiber composites (AFC) adhered to the surface of a host structure. Large deformation actuating capability is one of important features of AFC. Edge delamination in adhesive layer due to large interfacial shear stress at the free edge is typically resulted from axial strain mismatch between bonded materials. AFC patch possesses very good flexibility and toughness. When an AFC patch is partially delaminated from host structure, there remains sensing capability in the debonded part. The debonding size can be determined through axial resonance measured by the interdigitated electrodes symmetrically aligned on opposite surfaces of the patch. The electrical impedance and modal response of the AFC patch in part adhered to an aluminum plate were investigated in a broad frequency range. Debonding ratio of the AFC patch is in inverse proportion to the resonant frequency of the fundamental mode. Feasibility of in-situ detecting the progressive delamination between AFC patch and host plate is demonstrated.

This paper presents a design optimization of a new Advanced Active Blade Twist (AATR-II) blade incorporating single crystal Macro Fiber Composites (MFC) and conducts vibratory loads reduction analysis using an obtained optimal blade configuration. Due to the high actuation performance of the single crystal MFC, the AATR blade may reduce the helicopter vibration more efficiently even with a lower input-voltage as compared with the previous ATR blades. The design optimization provides the optimal cross-sectional configuration to maximize the tip twist actuation when a certain input-voltage is given. In order to maintain the properties of the original ATR blade, various constraints and bounds are considered for the design variables selected. After the design optimization is completed successfully, vibratory load reduction analysis of the optimized AATR-II blade in forward flight condition is conducted. The numerical result shows that the hub vibratory loads are reduced significantly although 20% input-voltage of the original ATR blade is used.

One of the principal problems encountered in the use of glass fiber reinforced Plastic composites(GFRP) is to establish an active fiber surface to achieve maximum adhesion between resin and fiber surface. In order to develope new process to overcome the disadvantage of chemical agent, we have studied the effect of reactive plasma glass surface treatment on the electrical and mechanical properties of glass fiber reinforced epoxy composites. It is found that the electrical and mechanical characteristics of the composites treated with plasma is improved especially in the dielectric strength by 20% and tensile strength by 15%, whereas the tan $\delta$ is decreased significantly.

탄소나노튜브로 보강된 고분자 수지에 대한 연구는 지난 20년간 활발히 수행되어 왔다. 또한 이를 이용하여 탄소섬유복합재의 물성을 증대시키기 위한 연구도 최근 그 영역을 넓혀가고 있다. 탄소섬유복합재는 탄소섬유의 비약적인 발전으로 섬유 방향의 기계적 물성은 상당히 만족할 만한 수준에 도달했으나, 수지에 의해 좌우되는 기계적 물성은 아직 기대에 못미치고 있다. 특히, 층간의 분리 (delamination)는 탄소섬유복합재의 가장 전형적이며 치명적인 파손의 원인중 하나이다. 이 층간분리에 대한 저항성을 알아보는 모드 1 파괴인성 실험 (혹은 double cantilever beam, DCB test)을 다양한 작용기로 기능화된 SWNT가 첨가된 탄소섬유복합재 시편에 대하여 수행하였다. 부직포 형태의 탄소나노튜브층을 이용한 시편의 경우 10.6%의 파괴인성 증대를 보였다.

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the effect of the length and volume fraction of smooth steel fiber on the electrical conductivity and shielding effectiveness of cementitious composites. As the length and volume fraction of the fiber increase, the movement of electrons becomes active and the formation of a conductive path becomes advantageous, thereby increasing electrical conductivity. Accordingly, the electrical conductivity and the shielding effectiveness showed a very close relationship. Thereafter, it is judged that research is needed to increase the shielding effect.

이 연구의 목적은 양생조건이 물-결합재비가 15%인 알칼리 활성 슬래그 기반 복합재료의 압축 및 인장거동에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 조사하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 양생 조건을 다르게 하여 실험체를 제작한 후 압축강도와 인장실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과 고온 양생과 기중 양생을 적용함에 따라 매트릭스의 압축강도와 균열강도는 감소한 반면 인장변형성능은 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 고온 양생과 기중 양생을 통해 복합재료의 균열 간격과 균열폭이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.
