The development of effective design allowable values for unmanned composite aircraft is an issue of paramount concern for the industry. The application of conventional manned aircraft structural certification methods to unmanned aircraft such as prototype and technology demonstrators, can lead to excessively long development time and costs. In this paper, the determining method of composite structure design allowable values for light composite unmanned aircraft is presented to reduce to the structural weight. This paper seeks to show the applicability of composite B-basis material values as a design allowable of light composite unmanned aircraft structures. A review of different civil and UAV targets failure probability is given. From the results, the researchers can know that the requirements of light composite unmanned aircraft design allowable should be alleviated, compared to manned composite aircrafts.

Generally, sound-absorbing materials in vehicles are used for giving the comfort to passengers by reducing noise while driving. Materials of which targets are light weight, high performance, eco friendliness and recycling have been developed recently. In this study, sound-absorbing materials using PET(polyethylene terephthalate) hollow fibers to achieve the light weight and the high sound absorption performance are developed, and then evaluated to meet a requirement for the automotive components. The test results show that the acoustic performances of developed products having new fiber structure are better than those of the conventional product.

This is the experimental study on the strength development of the light weight concrete block according to the autoclaving time. The calcareous source used the cement, siliceous material used the bottom ash ground to fine particle, and the PP fiber used to increase toughness. The results of this experiment are as follows. According to the increase of autoclaving time and the fiber content, compressive and flexural strengths are increased. Despite of the changes of the autoclaving time, tobermorite was produced on each of the specimens. However, the phase of tobermorite was changed in accordance with the changes of autoclaving time.

This forged piston is proposed with a lighter weight and higher durability than a gravity casting piston for gasoline engines. However, a forged piston is very difficult to develop and mass-produce due to lack of basic technologies such as design, material and forging technique. First, we benchmarked existing forged pistons according to database design parameters. Second, we evaluated two solidification processes, continuous casting and spray forming, to produce heat-resistant alloy billets for forging. The spray forming process gives better mechanical properties at all temperatures, particularly at elevated temperatures except when poor formability is present. We used DEFORM simulation to determine the optimum process condition with billet from spray forming and successfully commercialized it with LF Sonata HEV.

Track substructure(ballast, subgrade) should have sufficient strength and adequate stiffness to fully support track superstructure(rail, fastener, sleeper). Vertical support stiffness of track comes from the sufficient thickness, adequate strength and stiffness of material of substructure layers. Since the vertical support stiffness of track substructure is closely related with the track geometry, the evaluation of the stiffness is very important to understand the track states. This paper introduces the system, which are composed of Ground Penetrating Radar(GPR), Portable Ballast Sampler(PBS), and Light Falling Weight Deflectometer(LFWD), to evaluate substructure condition and summarizes the field test results performed with the reliable system.

Glass fiber reinforced gypsum panels (GFRG) are hollow panels made from modified gypsum plaster and reinforced with chopped glass fibers. The hollow cores of panels can be filled with in-situ concrete/reinforced concrete or insulation material to increase the structural strength or the thermal insulation, respectively. GFRG panels are unfilled when used as partition walls. As load bearing walls, the panels are filled with M 20 grade concrete (reinforced concrete filling) in order to resist the gravity and lateral loads. The study was conducted in two stages: First stage involves formulation of the alternate light weight mix by conducting experimental investigations to obtain the optimum combination of phosphogypsum and shredded thermocol. In the second stage the alternate mixes are filled in GFRG panels and experimental investigations are conducted to compare the performance against panels filled with conventional M 20 mix.

Use of soils with crushed expanded polystyrene(EPS) satisfied both recycling of industrial waste and development of new light-weight fill materials. Objectives of the study were to make the mixed the mixed soils with the crushed EPS and to suggest the most rational mixing ration as a fill material. A series of laboratory tests was performed to investigate the relationship between miximum dry density and optimum moisture contenr and to find the variation of CBR for mixtures with 3 soils and 2 sizes of the crushed EPS. Results of the test showed that the sizes fo the curshed EPS had a little effect on the properties of mixed soils. But gradatiion of soils and mixing ration with the crushed EPS were important factors to characterize compaction properties of the mixed soils.

Recently, "The rules on the standards of evacuation and fire protection of buildings" require that non-burnable materials such as non-combustible and semi-non-combustible materials be used as the materials applied to the building's exterior walls, but styrofoam, which is a combustible material, has been applied a lot and became a social issue. In this study, we developed a non-combustible outer wall molding to secure construction and economic feasibility and free expression using CLC(CLC: Cellular Light-weight Concrete).

As demand of light weight in the automotive industry has increased, the cowl cross member has been investigated using various methods to change the material. Conventionally, a cowl cross member has been made of steel and aluminum, but recently researchers tested multi-material such as aluminum and plastic. We studied a new model of the cowl cross member made of composite and non ferrous materials. For products with a high degree of freedom in design, generally, the method of topology optimization is advantageous and for the partial bracket part of the cowl cross member had a degree of freedom in the design, a topology optimization is appropriate. Considering the characteristics of the cowl cross members, we need research to minimize the weight while having the performance of noise, vibration and harshness(NVH). Taking the mounting status of the product into consideration, we used an assembly model to optimize the cowl cross member. But this method took too much time so we considered simple cowl cross member assemble conditions using the direct matrix input method(DMI) with the Craig-Bampton Nodal Method. This method is capable of considering the status of the assembly without assembling the model, which reduced the solving time and increased the accuracy comparison with a cowl cross member without DMI.

The development of adsorbed natural gas (ANG) has emerged as one of potential solutions. It is desirable to reduce the weight of vessel by applying light-weighed a composite carbon fiber in order to response to a egulation of $CO_2$ emission. Through understanding of a composite carbon fiber, and material characteristic of a composite carbon fiber is required in order for better application of a reduction of weight and an analysis of material characteristic. Herein, this study suggest the composite carbon fiber vessel applied to the characteristic of carbon fiber, and it decides the preliminary shape based on the test of material characteristic for ANG vessel applied to a composite carbon fiber, and its basic shape calculate through on the netting theory. Moreover, the detail shape design is analyzed by a finite element analysis, and in the stage of detail sahp design and analysis of stress was performed on the typical shape using a finite element analysis, and the result of preliminary design was verified.
