This paper presents a method for predicting premature separation of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) plates from strengthened steel beams. The fracture criterion based on material-induced singularity is formulated in terms of a singular intensity factor. Static test on double strap joints was selected to provide the critical stress intensity factor in the criterion because good degree of accuracy and consistency of experimental data can be expected compared with the unsymmetrically loaded single lap joints. The debond/separation loads of steel beams with different CFRP lengths were measured and compared with those predicted from the criterion. Good agreement between the test results and the prediction was found.

Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI) is one of optical technique to measure displacement precisely, uses CCD camera to show result image in real time. General ESPI system measures in-plane or out-of-plane displacement. Shearography is one of electronic speckle pattern interferometric methods which allow full-field observation of surface displacement derivatives and it is robust in vibration. The shearography provides non-contacting technique of evaluating defects nondestructively. In this study, the shearography was used to evaluate defects in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic(CFRP). Various sizes of artificial defects were embedded in various depths of woven CFRP plate. Effects due to the variation of size and depth of defects were evaluated in this study.

This paper deals with the buckling and vibration analysis of plate with a hole. We knew that in this paper, as aspect ratio rises in design parameter, the buckling strength and the natural frequency of laminated composite plate decrease and as diameter of hole for width of plate rises, the buckling strength decrease but the natural frequency increase. Also this paper compared the CFRP laminated composit plate with the hybrid composite plate, and proposed that the hybrid composite plate is stronger than the CFRP composite plate.

Aluminum and CFRP tube is light-weight material representatively but collapse mechanism is different under axial loading. Aluminum tube absorbs energy by stable plastic deformation under axialloading. While CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics)tube absorb synergy by unstable brittle failure but its specific strength and stiffness is higher than that of aluminum tube. In this study, for complement of detect and synergy effect by combination with the advantages of each member, the axialcollapsetests were performed for combined aluminum CFRP tubes which are composed of aluminum tubes wrapped with CFRP out side aluminum square tubes. Collapsecharacteristics were analyzed for combined square tubes which have different CFRP orientation angle and thickness. Test results were compared with that of aluminum tubes and CFRP tubes.

The resistance performances were studied for two 50-ft-class power yachts made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) with different hull form characteristics using model tests. The tests were carried out at a high-speed circulating water channel (CWC) for the 16–38 knot range. The total resistance, trim, and sinkage were measured, and the results were compared with wave patterns. The results showed that a chine position at the draft line had a strong effect on the planning performance and resistance performance in a certain velocity range.

Continuing progress in high technology has created numerous industrial applications for new advanced composite materials. Among these materials, carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) laminate composite is typically used for low-weight carrying structures that require high specific strength. In this study, the damage mechanism of a compact tension (CT) specimen of woven CFRP laminates is described in terms of strain and displacement changes and crack growth behavior. The digital image correlation (DIC) method (which is employed here as a computer vision technique) is analyzed. Acoustic emission (AE) characteristics are also acquired during fracture tests. The results demonstrate the usefulness of these methods in evaluating the damage mechanism for woven CFRP laminate composites. From the results, we show these methods are so useful in order to evaluate the damage mechanism for woven CFRP laminate composites.

In this study, one type of circular shaped composite tube was used, combined with reinforcing foam and without foam. Furthermore, CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) circular member manufactured from CFRP prepreg sheet for lightweight design. CFRP is an anisotropic material which is the most widely adapted lightweight structural member. The crashworthy behavior of circular composite material tubes subjected to static axial compression under same conditions is reported in this paper. Test was executed in order to compare the results to the energy absorption and collapse shape. The collapse mode during the failure process were observed and analyzed. The behavior of polymeric foams to the tubes crashworthiness were also investigated. According to the experimental results, specimens filled with foam are higher total energy absorption than the other specimens not filled with the foam.

The effect of the surface profile on CFRP and aluminum metal bonding was studied. A small number of steps were made on the aluminum surface, and the shear stress and elongation were measured using a shear test after bonding with an autoclave method. As the number of surface steps increased, the shear stress and elongation increased. The surface bonding strength increased because of the effect of the mechanical and chemical bonding. When the number of effective stages was exceeded, the shear strength decreased again due to the aspect ratio of the step and the reduction of the penetration effect of the resin into the groove.

탄소섬유강화플라스틱(CFRP:Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic)용기의 외부에 화재가 발생할 경우 함침된 수지(Resin)가 탄화되면서 자체 강도가 약화되고 충전된 가스가 외부 온도 상승에 따라 압력 상승이 발생하여 용기의 폭발로 이어지는 사고가 발생할 개연성이 높다. 화염 노출조건에서 복합재료 용기의 폭발을 방지하기 위하여 용기용 밸브에 내장된 온도감응식 압력안전장치(TPRD:Thermally activated Pressure Relief Device) 작동 성능을 검증하기 위한 방법으로 화염실험(Bonfire test)를 실시하고 있으나, 개방 공간에서 실시되는 이 실험은 표면 온도 변화가 매우 크게 발생하여 실험에 대한 재현성(Reproducibility)에 의문이 제기되고 있다. 따라서, 표면 온도를 일정하게 유지하기 위한 실험 방법의 개선이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 경유+heptane을 이용한 전체 화염에 노출되는 경우와, 천연가스를 이용한 단일화염에 노출되는 경우의 실험 결과 비교를 통하여 화염 노출 표면 온도를 일정하게 유지하기 위한 가열 방법의 타당성을 검토하였다. 또한, 복합재료 라이너(Liner)의 온도 변화 비교를 통하여 집중화염 노출 조건에서 열전달 특성을 알아보았다.

An analytical method based on the nonlinear layered finite element method is used to simulate the load-deflection behavior of strengthened beam. Beams considered in this study are the ones strengthened either with external steel plate or Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) sheets bonded to the overlay soffit or with reinforcing rebars in the overlay. The theoretically obtained load-deflections and strains of the strengthened beam are compared to the corresponding experimental values. Comparing the approximate measures on the cumulative slips, efficiencies of the repairing techniques are evaluated. Parametric studies are, then, peformed using the developed model to investigate the effects of design variables on the overal flexural behavior of the strengthened beam. Simply supported beams under monotonically increasing symmetrical loads are considered exclusively.
