본 논문에서는 항공기용 스트링거(Stringer)로 사용하기 위한 브레이드 복합재료(Braided composites)의 물성에 대해 연구하였다. 브레이드 프리폼(braid preform)을 $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$로 제작하기 위해 드럼 와인더 속도, 브레이드 속도, 멘드럴 직경과 같은 공정변수들을 정량화시켰고, 에폭시 수지 종류를 TGDDM, YD-128로 브레이드 프리폼에 다르게 적용하여 각도에 따른 브레이드 복합재료의 인장강도, 굽힘강도를 섬유부피분율에 따라 규명하였으며, TGA 분석으로 열적 특성과 에폭시 수지의 분해 온도를 조사하였다. 그 결과 브레이드 프리폼의 각도가 낮을수록 인장강도와 굽힘강도가 향상됨을 확인하였고, 분자량이 높은 에폭시 수지를 사용할 때 물리적 성질이 향상되었다.

In order to commercialize the low cost composite fabrication technology in the area of domestic aerospace structure field, Resin Transfer Molding process has been considered as an alternative process to replace the high cost autoclave technology. The end part for the development of RTM process is the control rod of flight control system of aircraft. A braided preform was triaxially designed to improve the dimensional stability and mechanical property in the direction of external loads. Through the flow analysis using CVFEM, the resin filling time was calculated and the resin injection method was determined. The results of the flow analysis were directly applied to RTM mold design. The control rod was successfully manufactured by RTM process using internal pressure. The length and outer diameter of the manufactured part are 1148mm and 32mm, respectively.

In Resin transfer molding (RTM), composite parts are produced by impregnation of a dry reinforcement with liquid matrix resin. Permeability is a key issue in this process. For thin parts, the resin flow in the thickness direction can be neglected. Therefore thin parts are considered as two-dimensional composites. However the resin flow through the thickness is important to thicker parts and we have to consider out-of-plane permeability. This work discusses a method to measure out-of-plane permeability. The flow rate and pressure drop across the porous media were measured. Also one dimensional form of Darcy's law is applied to calculate the out-of-plane permeability of various preforms. The flow is injected uniformly into layers of the preform. And a circular fiber mat with 6cm diameter was cut and flattened from cylindrical mandrel.

This investigation reported the recent development of 3 dimensional fabrics such as spacer fabric, 3 dimensional multi-layered fabric and 3 dimensional braided fabric. First, we categorized 3 dimensional fabrics into 3 main products; 3 dimensional woven fabrics, 3 dimensional knitted fabrics and 3 dimensional braided fabrics with reviewing the possible main applications. We also reported the research and development trends of 3 dimensional fabrics by analyzing technical trends in industry and research institutes at domestic and overseas. United State, Germany and Japan lead the manufacturing technology for the mainly preform related products to apply in aerospace, automotive, protections, architecture and clothing applications. Lastly, we reviewed the main products of the leading company which manufactured using the 3 dimensional fabrics.

Resin transfer molding (RTM) is one of the most popular processes for producing fiber reinforced polymer composites. In the manufacture of complex thick composite structures, analysis on flow front advancement on the resin impregnating the multi-layered fiber preform is helpful for the optimization of the process. In this study, three-dimensional mold filling simulation of RTM is carried out by using CVFEM (Control Volume Finite Element Method). On the assumption of isothermal flow of Newtonian fluid, Darcy’s law and continuity equation are used as governing equations. Different permeability tensors employed in each layer are obtained by experiments. Numerically predicted flow front is compared with experimental one in order to validate the numerical results. Flow simulations are conducted in the two mold geometries, rectangular plate and hollow cylinder. Permeability tensor of each layer preform in Cartesian coordinate system is transformed to cylinder coordinates system so that the flow within the multi-layered preforms of the hollow cylinder can be calculated exactly. Our emphasis is on the three dimensional flow analysis for circular three-dimensional braided preform, which shows outstanding mechanical properties such as high impact strength and toughness compared with other conventional two-dimensional laminar-structured preforms.

본 연구에서는 적층복합재료에 발생하는 주요 손상인 박리를 방지하기 위하여, 굽힘-비틀림 하중이 작용하는 T-빔의 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 복합재료 T-빔의 제작에 사용할 수 있는 3차원 직조 프리폼을 설계하고자 하였으며, 이는 2차원 구조의 직조섬유가 두께방향으로도 직조가 되어 있는 형태로서, 층간 분리에 의한 박리를 방지할 수 있는 구조이다. 적층복합재료의 해석 및 평가를 위하여 개발된 유한요소해석 소프트웨어인 ANSYS Composites PrePost를 이용하여 구조해석을 수행함으로써 적층복합재료의 섬유비율을 최적화하고, 이를 토대로 3차원 프리폼 T-빔의 제작을 위한 가이드라인을 제시하였다. 해석결과, T-빔의 길이방향 섬유의 비율이 수직방향 섬유의 2배일 때 가장 높은 강도를 보였으며, 하중조건의 변화에도 최적화된 빔 구조의 강도가 유지되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 도출된 섬유비율을 이용하여 3차원 프리폼을 개발할 경우, 박리가 일어나지 않는 고강도의 T-빔 구조물을 제작할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
