본 연구에서는 폐쇄형 발포금속의 인장 특성을 이해하기 위하여 수정된 단위모델을 제시하였다. 또한 발포금속의 밀도는 가우스 분포에 의거하여 확률적으로 분포한다고 가정하고 본 연구에서 제시된 수정 단위 모델을 조합하여 유한요소 모델을 제안하였다. 이 모델은 실제 인장 시험과 유사한 변형거동을 보이는 것을 확인하였고, 적절한 밀도 분포와 내부 기공을 고려하게 되면, 해석에서 구해진 최대 인장 강도가 근사적으로 실험결과와 일치하는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 또한, 발포 알루미늄의 최대 인장 강도는 밀도 분포의 표준편차보다는 내부 기공 부피분율에 더 민감하게 변하는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

PURPOSES: As pavement generally provides service shorter than an expected life cycle, maintenance cost increases gradually. In order to help extending the service life and reduce maintenance cost, a new multi-functional composite pavement system is being developed in Korea. METHODS: This study is a part to develop the multi-functional composite pavement and is to investigate the mechanical performances of fiber-reinforced lean concrete for pavement subbase. The inherent problem of fiber reinforced concrete is dispersion of fibers in concrete mix. This study additionally evaluated fiber dispersion characteristics with respect to different fiber types. RESULTS: From the test results, the compressive strengths of the concretes satisfied the required limit of 5MPa at 7days. The standard deviation of the measured number of fibers were lower in the order of nylon, steel fiber and polypropylene. CONCLUSIONS: Reject ash was shown to be satisfactory as a replacement material to Portland cement in lean concrete base. The fiber volume fraction is suggested to be 0.4% even though the fracture toughness did not vary significantly with respect to fiber types. However, fracture energy absorbed up to complete failure increased with the increased fiber volume fraction increment.

This paper investigates wave propagation in functionally graded carbon nano-reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) plates under the influence of temperature based on Reddy' plate model. The material properties of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are size-dependent, and the volume fraction of CNTs varies only along the thickness direction of the plate for different CNTs reinforcement modes. In addition, the material properties of CNTs can vary for different temperature parameters. By solving the eigenvalue problem, analytical dispersion relations can be derived for CNTRC plates. The partial differential equations for the system are derived from Lagrange's principle and higher order shear deformation theory is used to obtain the wave equations for the CNTRC plate. Numerical analyses show that the wave propagation properties in the CNTRC plate are related to the volume fraction parameters of the CNTRC plate and the distribution pattern of the CNTs in the polymer matrix. The effects of different volume fractions of CNTs and the distribution pattern of carbon nanotubes along the cross section (UD-O-X plate) are discussed in detail.

Natural frequency behavior of graphene platelets reinforced composite (GPL-RC) joined truncated conical-cylindrical- conical shells resting on Winkler-type elastic foundation is presented in this paper for the first time. The rule of mixture and the modified Halpin-Tsai approach are applied to achieve the mechanical properties of the structure. Four different graphene platelets patterns are considered along the thickness of the structure such as GPLA, GPLO, GPLX, GPLUD. Finite element procedure according to Rayleigh-Ritz formulation has been used to solve 2D-axisymmetric elasticity equations. Application of 2D axisymmetric elasticity theory allows thickness stretching unlike simple shell theories, and this gives more accurate results, especially for thick shells. An efficient parametric investigation is also presented to show the effects of various geometric variables, three different boundary conditions, stiffness of elastic foundation, dispersion pattern and weight fraction of GPLs nanofillers on the natural frequencies of the joined shell. Results show that GPLO and BC3 provide the most rigidity that cause the most natural frequencies among different BCs and GPL patterns. Also, by increasing the weigh fraction of nanofillers, the natural frequencies will increase up to 200%.

단사정 구조의 순수 $ZrO_2$ 또는 5.35wt%의 $Y_2O_3$를 첨가한 정방정 구조의 $Y_2O_3(Y-TZP)$를 $Al_2O_3$에 첨가하여 그 기계적 특성 및 열충격 저항성을 연구하였다. $ZrO_2(m)$와 Y-TZP의 첨가량이 커짐에 따라 $Al_2O_3$의 소결 밀도가 증가하였다. 또한 Y-TZP의 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 비커스 경도도 증가하였고 첨가량 20wt%에서 최고값을 나타내었다. 시편의 경도는 소결 밀도에 의존함을 알 수 있었다. $ZrO_2(m)$나 Y-TZP 첨가량의 증가는 파괴인성을 향상시키는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 결과로 $Al_2O_3$의 경도는 $ZrO_2$의 transformation toughening 뿐 아니라 미세균열 강화에서도 얻어짐을 알 수 있었다. 단사정 구조의 순수 $ZrO_2$의 첨가는 $Al_2O_3-ZrO_2$의 열 충격 저항성을 향상시켰다. 결정입도는 $ZrO_2$의 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 커진다.

투과증발법은 투과 측의 진공 유지에 필요한 전력만을 소비하기 때문에 에너지 저감 기술이며, 공비증류와 같이 제 3의 보조 화학 물질을 사용하지 않기 때문에 환경 친화 기술로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 수열 합성을 통해 Silicalite-1을 합성하고 이를 PDMS 고분자에 적절한 양을 첨가하여 PDMS-zeolite 복합막을 제조하였다. 제조한 분리막을 이용하여 n-부탄올 수용액으로부터 n-부탄올을 분리하였다. 공급 수용액의 농도 변화 및 첨가한 제올라이트의 양 변화에 따른 투과증발 특성을 관찰하였다. 부탄올 농도가 매우 낮은 0.001 몰분율이 포함된 1,000 $cm^3$ 수용액을 용기로 공급하였다. 투과측의 압력을 약 0.2~0.3 torr로 유지하였다. n-부탄올의 투과플럭스는 공급된 n-부탄올의 농도가 0.015 몰분율인 실험조건에서 복합막 내의 Silicalite-1의 첨가량이 0 wt%에서 10 wt%로 증가함에 따라 14.5에서 186.3 g/$m^2$/hr로 크게 증가하였다. 이는 제올라이트 입자가 지닌 미세공 구조와 강력한 소수성으로 인하여 분리막의 분자 선택성이 4.8에서 11.8로 상당히 개선되었음을 의미한다. 이러한 결과로 투과된 투과물 내의 n-부탄올의 농도가 0.07 몰분율에서 0.15 몰분율로 상당히 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이렇게 합성된 복합막을 n-부탄올 농도가 0.015 몰분율 이하의 상당히 낮은 발효액으로부터 분리 회수하는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

This paper investigates the effect of linear and non-linear distribution of carbon nanotube volume fraction in the FG-CNTRC beams on the critical buckling by using higher-order shear deformation theories. Here, the material properties of the CNTRC beams are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction according to a new exponential power law distribution in terms of the carbon nanotube volume fractions. The single-walled carbon nanotube is aligned and distributed in the polymeric matrix with different patterns of reinforcement; the material properties of the CNTRC beams are described by using the rule of mixture. The governing equations are derived through using Hamilton's principle. The Navier solution method is used under the specified boundary conditions for simply supported CNTRC beams. The mathematical models provided in this work are numerically validated by comparison with some available results. New results of critical buckling with the non-linear distribution of CNT volume fraction in different patterns are presented and discussed in detail, and compared with the linear distribution. Several aspects of beam types, CNT volume fraction, exponent degree (n), aspect ratio, etc., are taken into this investigation. It is revealed that the influences of non-linearity distribution in the beam play an important role to improve the mechanical properties, especially in buckling behavior. The results show that the X-Beam configuration is the strongest among all different types of CNTRC beams in supporting the buckling loads.

The mechanical properties of short carbon/glass fiber reinforced polypropylene are experimentally measured as functions of fiber content and nozzle diameter. Also, these properties are compared with the survival rate of reinforced fibers and fiber volume fraction using image analysis after pyrolytic decomposition. The survival rate of fiber aspect ratio as well as fiber volume fraction is influenced by injection processing condition, the used materials and mold conditions such as diameter of nozzle, etc. In this study, the survival rate of fiber aspect ratio is investigated by nozzle size variations in injection/mold sides. It is found that the survival rate of glass fiber is higher that the survival rate of glass fiber is higher than that of carbon fiber. Both tensile modulus and strength of short-fiber reinforced polypropylene are improved s the fiber volume fraction and nozzle diameter are increased.

The effects of additional Mg content, the size and volume fraction of reinforcement phase on the mechanical properties of ceramic particle reinforced aluminium matrix composites fabricated by pressureless metal infiltration process were investigated. The hardness of $SiC_p/AC8A$ composites increased gradually with an increase in the additive Mg content, while the bending strength of $SiC_p/AC8A$ composites increased with an increase in additive Mg content up to 5%. However, this decreased when the level of additive Mg content was greater than 5% due to the formation of coarse precipitates by excessive Mg reaction and an increase in the porosity level. The hardness and strength of the composites increased with decreasing the size of SiC particle. It was found that the composites with smaller particles enhanced the interfacial bonding than those with bigger particles from fractography of the composites. The hardness of $Al_2O_{3p}/AC8A$ composites increased gradually with an increase in the volume fraction, however, the bending strength of $Al_2O_{3p}/AC8A$ composites decreased when the volume fraction of alumina particle was greater than 40% owing to the high porosity level.
