In this study, an effect of fiber blending on material property of hybrid fiber reinforced concrete (HFRC) was evaluated. Also, optimized association and the mixing rate of fiber for HFRC was determined. Test result shows, in the case of mono fiber reinforced concrete, use of steel fiber in concrete caused increment in tensile and bending strength as the blended ratio increases, while use of carbon fiber and glass fiber caused increment in compressive strength. Use of hybrid fiber reinforcement in concrete caused a significant influence on its fracture behavior; consequently, caused increase by mixing rate of steel fiber and contributed by carbon fiber, glass fiber, celluloid fiber in reinforcement effect in order.

This study has been performed to confirm the three dimensional effect of the crack reduction and the restrained effect of crack growth for the synthetic fiber reinforced soil. Two types of polyrpropylene fiber and low plastic clay(CL) were used for the test. And the test variable were fiber length and so on. The results of the study were summarized as follows ; 1) The mixing of synthetic fiber was effective in reducing crack growth due to adhesion between soil partlcles and synthetic fiber.l Especially initlal crack was delayed, as compared with the pure soil, for about 1 day in case of mono filament synthetic fiber and for about 1 or 2 days in case of fibrillated syntetic fiber. 2) As the content and length of synthetic fiber were increased , the effect of crack reduction was increased. It was found that 0.5% fibrillated synthetic fiber with 40mm length reinforced soil had about 3 times more effective than natural soils. 3) In case of the same fiber content and fiber length, the fibrillated synthetic fiber has nmore effective than the mono filament synthetic fiber for crack reduction.

LNG CCS which is a special type of cargo hold operated at -163℃ for transporting liquefied LNG is composed of a primary barrier, plywood, insulation panel, secondary barrier, and mastic. Currently, glass fiber is used to reinforce polyurethane foam. In this paper, we evaluated the possibility of replacing glass fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam with basalt fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam. We conducted a thermal conductivity test to confirm thermal performance at room temperature. To evaluate the mechanical properties between basalt and glass-fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam which is fiber content of 5 wt% and 10 wt%, tensile and an impact test was performed repeatedly. All of the tests were performed at room temperature and cryogenic temperature(-163℃) in consideration of the temperature gradient in the LNG CCS. As a result of the thermal conductivity test, the insulating performance of glass fiber reinforced polyurethane foam and basalt fiber reinforced polyurethane foam presented similar results. The tensile test results represent that the strength of basalt fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam is superior to glass fiber at room temperature, and there is a clear difference. However, the strength is similar to each other at cryogenic temperatures. In the impact test, the strength of PUR-B5 is the highest, but in common, the strength decreases as the weight ratio of the two fibers increases. In conclusion, basalt fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam has sufficient potential to replace glass fiber-reinforced polyurethane foam.

Background: Fibers have been used in cement mixture to improve its toughness, ductility, and tensile strength, and to enhance the cracking and deformation characteristics of concrete structural members. The addition of fibers into conventional reinforced concrete can enhance the structural and functional performances of safety-related concrete structures in nuclear power plants. Methods: The effects of steel and polyamide fibers on the shear resisting capacity of a prestressed concrete containment vessel (PCCV) were investigated in this study. For a comparative evaluation between the shear performances of structural walls constructed with conventional concrete, steel fiber reinforced concrete, and polyamide fiber reinforced concrete, cyclic tests for wall specimens were conducted and hysteretic models were derived. Results: The shear resisting capacity of a PCCV constructed with fiber reinforced concrete can be improved considerably. When steel fiber reinforced concrete contains hooked steel fibers in a volume fraction of 1.0%, the maximum lateral displacement of a PCCV can be improved by > 50%, in comparison with that of a conventional PCCV. When polyamide fiber reinforced concrete contains polyamide fibers in a volume fraction of 1.5%, the maximum lateral displacement of a PCCV can be enhanced by ~40%. In particular, the energy dissipation capacity in a fiber reinforced PCCV can be enhanced by > 200%. Conclusion: The addition of fibers into conventional concrete increases the ductility and energy dissipation of wall structures significantly. Fibers can be effectively used to improve the structural performance of a PCCV subjected to strong ground motions. Steel fibers are more effective in enhancing the shear performance of a PCCV than polyamide fibers.

This is a study to confirm how to improve and substitute the existing re-bar with other material such as a fiber rope, especially super fiber rope having much more strong tensile strength. 6(b) different fiber rope reinforced beam with a section of $20{\times}30cm$ have been made and tasted as variables designed in the study. The larger diameter of fiber rope, the more capacity of the beam, even though fiber reinforced beam are increased with ten(10)percent, each. Lower capacity of fiber-reinforced beam than normal RC beam has been analyzed theoretically and empirically, based on a lot of experiences of the same size beam test. Fiber rope-reinforced concrete beam does not have sufficient capacity than RC beam due to insufficient bonding capacity of fiber rope in concrete. It leads to decrease beam bearing capacity and crack around lower center of the beam. Therefore, bonding reinforcement of fiber rope beam such as pinning a triangles steel pin in each knot of fiber rope contributes to improving bearing capacity of fiber rope reinforcing beam.

There is a need for light weight and high stiffness characteristics in the building structure as well as aircraft and cars. So fiber reinforced plastic with the addition of reinforcing agent such as glass fiber, carbon fiber, aramid fiber is utilized in this regard. In this study, mechanical strength, flow property and part shrinkage of glass fiber and carbon fiber reinforced PA6 were examined according to reinforcement content such as 10%, 20%, and 30%, and reinforcement type. The mechanical property was measured by a tensile test with specimen fabricated by injection molding and the flow property was measured by spiral test. In addition, we measured the part shrinkage of fiber reinforced PA6 that affects part quality. As glass fiber content increases, mechanical property increased by 75.4 to 182%, and flow property decreased by 18.9 to 39.5%. And part shrinkage decreased by 52.9 to 60.8% in the flow direction, and decreased by 48.2 to 58.1% in the perpendicular to the flow direction. As carbon fiber content increases, mechanical property increased by 180 to 276%, flow property decreased by 26.8 to 42.8%, and part shrinkage decreased by 65.0 to 71.8% and 69.5 to 72.7% in the flow direction and the direction perpendicular to the flow respectively.

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are considered suitable candidates for structural materials of spacecrafts due to their excellent properties of high strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance. An online health monitoring method for FRP composites must be applied to space structures. However, the application of existing health monitoring methods to space structures is limited due to the harsh space environment. Here, carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites embedded with fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors were prepared to explore the feasibility of strain monitoring using embedded FBG sensors in γ-radiation environment. The analysis of the influence of radiation on the strain monitoring demonstrated that the embedded FBG can be successfully applied to the health monitoring of FRP composites in radiation environment.

Steel fiber reinforced concrete(SFRC) is a composite material possessing many physical and mechanical properties which are distinct from unreinforced concrete. The use of steel fiber reinforcement to improve the flexural and tensile strengths, extensibility and toughness of ordinary cement concrete is well known at present, but reinforcement of polymer concrete with steel fibers has been hardly reported untill now. The objective of this study was to improve the properties of the polymer concrete by addition of steel fibers. In this paper steel fiber reinforced polymer concrete is prepared with various steel fiber contents and aspect ratio($\ell$ /d), and their mechanical properties were investigated experimentally.
