The HPFRCCs show the multiple crack and damage tolerance capacity due to the interfacial bonding of the fibers to the cement matrix. For practical application, it is needed to investigate the fractural behavior and of HPFRCCs and understand the micro-mechanism of cement matrix with reinforcing fiber. The objectives of this paper are to examine the compressive behavior, fracture and damage process of HPFRCC by acoustic emission technique. Total four series were tested, and the main variables were the hybrid type, polyethylene (PE) and steel cord (SC), and fiber volume fraction. The damage progress by compressive behavior of the HPFRCCs is characteristic for the hybrid fiber type and volume fraction. And from acoustic emission (AE) parameter value, it is found that the second and third compressive load cycles resulted in successive decrease of the ring-down count rate as compared with the first compressive load cycle.

Since the residual stress of hydrogen tank is directly related to durability, it is very important to reduce it for safety. Type II~IV hydrogen tank are manufactured by the filament winding method, in which the fiber is impregnated with resin and wound around the liner. Residual stress in composite is affected by curing conditions and fiber tension etc. In this study, the effect of curing conditions on residual stress was analyzed when manufacturing a Type III hydrogen tank using carbon fiber filament winding process. First, the curing behavior of the epoxy resin was analyzed using a differential scanning calorimetry. Through this, the curing temperature was set to 140℃. During the same curing time, the specimens were cured under 2-stage curing condition that reached 140℃ earlier and a 4-stage curing condition that reached 140℃ later, respectively. After curing, the residual stress of the composite material was measured by the ring slitting method, and the experimental values were compared with numerical values. It was confirmed that there was a significant difference in residual stress according to the optimization of curing conditions.

Discharge capacity of the fiber mat and the fiber drain made with natural fibers abstracted from plant source was evaluated by permeability test for fiber mat and Delft type test and composite discharge capacity test using disturbed clayey soils for fiber drain. The permeability test results for environmentally friendly coconut fiber mat prove that fiber mat has outstanding permeability in substituting permeable sand. However, discharge capacity of fiber drain evaluated by conventional Delft type discharge capacity test was relatively lower than that of plastic drain board. Nevertheless, settlement and pore pressure dissipation behaviors of fiber drain and plastic drain board installed clay soil during the composite discharge capacity test were almost similar to that of plastic drain board. It is found that the natural fiber drain satisfies requiring minimum discharge capacity in substituting the conventional plastic drain board.

Modern underground and tunnel works that the wet type shotcrete is getting widely designed and applied in a large scale project. Further to its applications, the needs of improving the performance of the shotcrete, such as new and developed additives and accelerators fur increasing the performance of shotcrete, become the most important issue in the field. The main objective of this study evaluated to performance of steel fiber reinforced shotcrete using alkali free based accelerator for the durability and high quality of shotcrete. The major test variables are accelerator type and its dosage. One type silicate based accelerator and one type aluminate based accelerator and one type alkali free based accelerator were used. The dosage of accelerators is determined by the manufactures and laboratory test condition. Compressive strength test results showed that the dosage of silicate and aluminate based accelerators caused reduction of mechanical properties of shotcrete. Compressive strength of alkali free based accelerator is more stable than of silicate and aluminate based accelerators. Also, according to the compressive strength and flexural test results, it was found that steel fiber reinforced shotcrete used alkali free based accelerator could attain significant improvement in the mechanical and flexural performance.

In this study, it is investigate to influence on tile dispersion of fiber and the flowability of matrix of type and amount of superplasticizer, velocity agent, mineral admixture and steel fiber to improve for construction performance of steel fiber reinforced cementitious composites. As for the test results, it was found that the dispersion of fiber and the flowability of matrix in steel fiber reinforced cementitious composites can improve by using of properly amount and combination of superplasticizer, velocity agent, mineral admixture. Furthermore, It show that the aspect ratio of steel fiber affect the construction performance of fiber reinforced cementitious composites, and the improvement for construction performance is the more effective the smaller aspect ration of steel fiber.

This study was to analyze characteristics of soils reinforced by FPF(Fibrillated Polypropylene Fiber). Laboratory test, model test and field tests were performed on soils reinforced by fibers, to evaluate the shear strength characteristics. For the silty sand, clayey sand and silty clay, the influence of fiber shape, fiber length and fiber content were evaluated from compaction test, direct shear test, uniaxial test, california bearing ratio(CBR) test. Fibrillated type fiber, 5cm long with a content of 0.5% shows 5∼30% increase of friction angle and 7∼55 percent increase of CBR value.

In this study, in regard to fiber reinforced mortar mixing steel fiber and 4types of organic fiber, impact test was carried out. Because to predict fracture reduction performance with flexural, tensile strength when types of fiber were different as impact reduction performance of concrete is closely related with toughness such as flexural strength, tensile strength and fracture energy etc. As a result, enhancement of toughness by fiber reinforcement controls the spall of rear. On the other hand in case of steel fiber relatively turned up high toughness in appropriate load compared with organic fiber but in same mixing rate, impact reduction performance by projectile showed low performance due to few number of an individual of mixing.

The cemented sand and gravel (CSG) method is a construction technique that adds cement and water to rock-like materials, such as rivered gravel or excavation muck which can be obtained easily at areas adjacent to dam sites. This study was performed to evaluate the compaction and compressive strength properties of stress-strain, elastic modulus and fracture mode CSG materials reinforced polypropylene fiber. Polypropylene fiber widely used for concrete reinforcement is randomly distributed into cemented sand. The two types of polypropylene fiber (monofillament and fibrillated fiber) were used and fiber fraction ratio was 0, 0.2 %, 0.4 %, 0.6 % and 0.8 % by the weight of total dry soil. The effect of fiber fraction ratio and fiber shape on compaction and compressive strength were investigated. The optimum moisture contents (OMC) of CSG material increased as fiber fraction increased and the dry density of CSG material decreased as fiber fraction. Also, the maximum increase in compressive strength was obtained at 0.4 % content of monofillament and fibrillated fiber. CSG material behaviour was controlled not only by fiber fraction but also fiber distribution, fiber shape and fiber type.

In this paper, it was investigated how the amount of energy harvesting will be varied from the FTEH which has inlet area is wider than outer area and attaching cantilever type MFC (Macro Fiber Composite) using by theoretical and experimental approaches. When MFC length increased 50 % vibration displacement also increased 3.5 times. When thickness decreased vibration displacement increased 30.9 times. In underwater tank experiments FTEH with spiral screw, flexible support, vertical direction fabrication cases showed maximum energy harvesting more 5 times than the case of MFC installed horizontally without spiral screws and on rigid supports. When the flow speed of 0.24 m/s FTEH's optimal resistance applied 4,10 kΩ, energy storage in the capacitor was measured 4 ㎼·s during 350 seconds. It was confirmed that the charging energy can be increased by lengthening the capacitor charging time of the large-area MFC installed vertically on the flexible support at high flow speed.
