전기절연재의 구조재로 많이 사용되고 있는 FRP(fiber reinforced plastics)는 열경화성 수지를 접착성 결합제(binder)로 하고 고강도 섬유를 보강재로 한 복합재료로서 기계적, 화학적, 전기적 특성이 매우 우수하다. FRP의 기계적 강도는 유리섬유에 의존 하고 있으므로 유리섬유의 방향과 힘을 가하는 방향에 따라서 그 강도의 차이는 매우 크게 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 섬유의 배향에 따른 강도의 변화를 이해하기 위하여 시편을 제작하여 압축강도를 측정하고 압축강도와 응력의 분포를 유한요소법으로 시뮬레이션하였다. FRP rod에 압축응력이 가해졌을 때 섬유의 배향에 따른 파괴강도와 응력의 분포를 유한요소법을 이용하여 시뮬레이션하였고 모델링에는 3-D Shell과 3-D Brick 요소를 사용하였다. 제작된 시편의 강도특성과 시뮬레이션을 통한 응력의 분포를 서로 비교하여 시편의 파괴에 미치는 응력을 고찰하였다.

In the last decade, increasing national research fund for recycling the waste FRP (fiber reinforced plastics) ships which has caused environmental problems, improves the technology making concrete-reinforcing fibers out of the waste FRP. Furthermore, the concrete with recycled FRP fiber was tested for the structural performance. Experimental strength tests show that use of recycled FRP powder does not reduce the compressive strength of high strength concrete, and does increase the fire resistance performance of high strength concrete significantly. But, the study in investigating the properties of recycled fiber powder from waste FRP has not been completed because of the absence of the method of separation of mat layer from the waste FRP. This study is to propose a new extracting method of the mat layer from waste FRP, which is the efficient and environment friendly system. and thus it is considered to be the useful recycling method for fire resistance high concrete products or structures.

In recent years, composite materials such as fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) have gained considerable attention in the aircraft and automobile industries due to their light weight, high modulus and specific strength. In practice, control of chip formation appears to be the most serious problem since chip formation mechanism in composite machining has significant effects on the finished surface ［1,2,3,4,5］. Current study will discuss frequency analysis based on autoregressive (AR) time series model and process characterization in orthogonal cutting of a fiber-matrix composite materials. A sparsely distributed idealized model composite material, namely a glass reinforced polyester (GFRP) was used as workpiece. Analysis method employs a force sensor and the signals from the sensor are processed using AR time series model. The experimental correlation between the different chip formation mechanisms and model coefficients are established.(omitted)

Due to the advantageous mechanical properties of the fiber reinforced polymeric plastics(FRP), their application in the construction industries is ever increasing trend, as a substitute of structural steel which is highly vulnerable under hazardous environmental conditions (i.e., corrosion, humidity, etc.). In this study, hybrid FRP-concrete composite pile (HCFFT) connection is suggested. The HCFFT is consisted of pultruded FRP unit module, filament wound FRP which is in the outside of mandrel composed of circular shaped assembly of pultruded FRP unit modules, and concrete which is casted inside of the circular tube shaped hybrid FRP pile. Therefore, pultruded FRP can increase the flexural load carrying capacity, filament wound FRP and concrete filled inside can increase axial load carrying capacity. In the study, connection capacity of HCFFT(small and mid size) is investigated throughout experiments and finite element method. From the results of experiments, we suggested the connection methods about HCFFT pile connection.

In this study, various types of composite materials and adhesives that are actually used in the shipbuilding field for small ships, leisure boats, and fishing boats were applied in the hand lay-up method and vacuum infusion method to manufacture specimens. Then the tensile strength, tensile modulus, flexural strength, and flexural modulus values of these specimens were obtained. In addition, the barcol hardness and fiber content were obtained from the specimens. The results showed that the strengths of the specimens manufactured using the vacuum infusion method were higher than those manufactured using the hand lay-up method. Moreover, the barcol hardness and fiber content were also higher in those manufactured using the vacuum infusion method. The specimens manufactured using the vacuum infusion method were thinner despite their large fiber content.

Residual strength of fiber metal laminates after impact was studied. 3/4 lay up FML was fabricated using 4 ply prepreg, 2 ply aluminum sheets, and 1 ply steel sheet. Quasi isotropic ([0/45/90/-45]s) and orthotropic ([0/90/0/90]s) FRP were also fabricated to compare with FML. Impact test were conducted by using instrumented drop weight impact machine (Dynatup, Model 8250). Penetration load and absorbed energy of FML were superior to those of FRPs. Tensile tests were conducted to evaluate the residual strength after impact. Strength degradation of FML was less than that of FRP. This means that the damage tolerance of FML is excellent than that of FRP. Residual strength of each specimen was predicted by using Whitney and Nuismer(WN) Model. Impact damage area is assumed as a circular notch in WN model. Damage width is defined as the average of back face and top face damage width of each specimen. Average stress and point stress criterions were used to calculate the characteristic length. It is supposing that a characteristic length is a constant. The distribution of characteristic length shows that the assumption is reasonable. Prediction was well matched with experiment under both stress criterions.

The resin infusion method is the latest technology of FRP laminating and cleaning to improve FRP hull quality. This method is focused on how to arrange infusion channels for the laminiating strategy. The laminating strategy using the resin infusion method has been utilized to complete the infusion work and remove the cavities on the FRP surface within the curing time. It is resulting from the arrangement of infusion and vacuum channels, the resin property, and the combination of FRP. This strategy has been depended on the field experience for manufacturing FRP without the resin infusion simulation. This study can help to improve the efficiency of FRP fabrication with the laminating strategy including the resin infusion simulation instead of the field experience.

The filament winding method is widely used to manufacture products of fiber reinforced plastics (FRP), such as high pressure vessels, launch tubes and pipes. For reducing winding time, the method of winding by filament band which consists of several filament fibers is used. NC winding machine is used for precise winding and NC path is needed. Before filament winding, users should verify that winding path which presented by a line is appropriate by filament winding simulation. Also, the used length of each filament is different. So, if the peak filament exhausted, it causes to stop manufacturing. In this research, we developed software which visualizes 3D graphic of filament band winding path and simulates winding process on real time. And we proposed algorithm about calculation of each filament usage. We use geodesic equation for generating filament band surface and calculating the usage length of each filament.

There are several basic classes of recycling methods for FRP boats. The main one is 'Mechanical recycling' which involves shredding and grinding of the scrap FRP in a new product. That is one of the simpler and more technically proven methods. It recently has been reported that FRP can be recycled by separating into layers instead of crushing into powder. Many researchers should be more interested in these mechanical recycling for the eligibility. Nevertheless, because resins is very useful renewable energy, most of waste FRP regenerating methods depend on incineration (reclamation) or thermal recycling (pyrolysis). FRP is made up of laminated glass- fiber (roving cloth layer) which is also very unlikely to break into each layer. If there is an extracting method which is efficient and environment friendly removing glass fiber from waste FRP, it should also solve the another urgent problem. Laminated glass-fiber which is very limited renewable, is a serious barrier to wast FRP boat regenerating. This study is to propose a new extracting method which is efficient and environment friendly waste FRP regenerating system. And it should be applied to renewable energy applications with the waste resins of FRP. Also recycling glass fiber obtained by the separation of the roving layer from waste FRP will be consider to be useful for concrete products or structures.
