Concrete structures are often subjected to long-term static and short-term dynamic loads. Due to a relatively low tensile strength and energy dissipating characteristics, the impact resistance of concrete is considered poor. This study investigates the feasibility of using polypropylene fibers to improve the impact resistance of reinforced concrete slabs. Fourteen polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete slabs were fabricated and tested using a drop weight test. The effects of slab thickness, fiber volume fractions, and impact energy on the dynamic behaviors were evaluated mainly in terms of impact resistant, crack patterns, and failure modes. The post impact induced strains versus time responses were obtained for all slabs. The results showed that adding the polypropylene fiber at a dosage of 0.90% by volume of concrete leads to significant improvement in the overall structural behavior of the slabs and their resistance to impact loading. Interestingly, the enhancement in the behavior of the slabs using a higher fiber dosage of 1.2% was not as good as achieved with 0.90%.

This paper studies the lateral impact behavior of ultra-high performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) filled double-skin steel tubular (UHPFRCFDST) columns. The impact force, midspan deflection, and strain histories were recorded. Based on the test results, the influences of drop height, axial load, concrete type, and steel tube wall thickness on the impact resistance of UHPFRCFDST members were analyzed. LS-DYNA software was used to establish a finite element (FE) model of UHPFRC filled steel tubular members. The failure modes and histories of impact force and midspan deflection of specimens were obtained. The simulation results were compared to the test results, which demonstrated the accuracy of the finite element analysis (FEA) model. Finally, the effects of the steel tube thickness, impact energy, type of concrete and impact indenter shape, and void ratio on the lateral impact performances of the UHPFRCFDST columns were analyzed.

본 연구에서는 낙하추 방식의 충격시험기를 이용하여 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재의 저에너지 충격거동을 조사하였다. 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재는 유리섬유직물의 면재와 우레탄 폼의 코아로 구성되어 있으며 위쪽 면재와 아래쪽 면재는 폴리에스터 보강섬유로 코아의 두께방향을 따라 스티칭하여 일체형으로 결합되어 있다. 이때 코아의 두께가 충격거동에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 코아의 두께를 달리한 네 종류의 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재를 고려하였다. 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재에 작용되는 충격조건은 낙하추의 질량과 낙하추의 낙하높이를 조절함으로써 변화시켰다. 연구결과에 따르면 코아의 두께, 낙하추의 낙하높이, 그리고 낙하추의 질량 등의 변화는 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재에서의 충격하중, 충격체와의 접촉시간, 면재에 형성된 변형율 등에 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 또한 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재는 스티칭부의 보강효과로 인해 손상을 억제시킬 분 아니라 손상이 발생한 경우에도 구조물로서 역할을 담당할 수 있다. 그러나 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재를 효율적으로 기존의 구조물에 적용하기 위해서는 스티칭부에서의 수지함침성을 개선할 수 있는 제작공법의 연구가 필요하다.

섬유금속 적층판(FMLs)은 손상허용도를 향상시키고 무게를 줄이는데 적합하여 항공우주 응용의 신소재로 각광을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 우선 섬유와 알루미늄을 이용하여 적층판을 제조하여 인장시험을 수행 후 FMLs의 기계적 물성을 평가하였다. 또한 알루미늄과 섬유적층의 변화를 주어 낙추충격시험기(Drop Weight Impact Tester)를 이용하여 저속충격하에서 낙추 높이를 조절하여 각 종류의 시험편 마다 충격시간에 따른 하중과 충격흡수에너지를 각각 비교하였다. 추가로 유한요소해석을 이용하여 시험조건과 동일 조건하 인장과 충격거동해석을 수행한 결과를 실험치와 비교하여 실험과 이론해석이 잘 일치함을 보였다.

The drop type impact test and finite element analysis are established for examining the buckling behavior of a square tube under the lateral impact load. Based on these results, the effects by the boundary conditions for supporting the structure are reviewed, which are as follows. One is pinned condition by screw; the other is fixed by welding. The critical impact force and acceleration by test are nearly same between two cases. However, the critical impact velocity of the pinned condition is higher than that of the fixed case. Therefore, the dynamic buckling behavior of a pinned structure is better than the fixed condition in view of critical impact velocity. These test and analysis results will be adaptable for predicting the dynamic structural integrity of a tube structure not only the axial impact event but the lateral impact event.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the dynamic strength characteristics of LNG carriers cargo containment system under impact loads experimentally. The material properties were experimentally obtained for individual components of MARK III insulation system. A series of impact tests was performed using a custom-built drop experiment facility as varying heights and weights of the drop object. Crack initiation and propagation were measured during the cyclic dry drop experiment. The quantitative relationship between impact load and crack initiation as well as the cycle number and crack propagation were reported.

The laminated sequence and thickness of a composite structure is an important design parameter which affect the strength and impact damage. In this study, it was investigated the residual strength of carbon fiber laminate after impact damage by the experimental investigation. The tensile strength test and compressive strength test were used to find the mechanical properties, previously. Impact test was performed using low-velocity drop-weight test equipment. The impact damages were finally assessed by the compressive strength test. The investigation results revealed the residual strength of the damaged specimens due to the impact damage.

In this study, we investigated the effects of UBM(Under Bump Metallization) and solder composition on the drop impact reliability of wafer level packaging. Fan-in type WLP chips were prepared with different solder ball composition (Sn3.0Ag0.5Cu, and Sn1.0Ag0.5Cu) and UBM (Cu 10 ${\mu}m$, Cu 5 ${\mu}m$\Ni 3 ${\mu}m$). Drop test was performed up to 200 cycles with 1500G acceleration according to JESD22-B111. Cu\Ni UBM showed better drop performance than Cu UBM, which could be attributed to suppression of IMC formation by Ni diffusion barrier. SAC105 was slightly better than SAC305 in terms of MTTF. Drop failure occurred at board side for Cu UBM and chip side for Cu\Ni UBM, independent of solder composition. Corner and center chip position on the board were found to have the shortest drop lifetime due to stress waves generated from impact.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical effect of sports taping on the lower limb during drop landing. Twelve male university students who have no musculoskeletal disorder were recruited as the subjects. Principal strain, median frequency, vertical GRF, loading rate, angular velocity and resultant joint moment were determined for each trial. For each dependent variable, paired t-test was performed to test if significant difference existed between taped and untaped conditions(p<.05). The results showed that principal strain of the thigh and the shank in taping group were significantly less than those found in control group. These indicated that sports taping may prevent excessive mechanical strain caused by impact force during the deceleration phase. Flexion(-)-extension(+) and varus(-)-valgus(+) resultant joint moment of the knee joint in taping group were greater than corresponding value for control group. It seems that extensor muscle of the knee joint were not only supported by sports taping during knee flexion but also sports taping is effective for minimizing the possibility of injury.
