Tensile strength of the woven glass fiber reinforced PET (Poly-Ethylene-Terephthalate) matrix composite manufactured by rapid press consolidation technique was investigated and evaluated. During pre-heating, consolidation and solidification stages, the optimal manufacturing conditions for this composite were discussed based on the void content and tensile properties depending on vacuum condition. It is found that the effect of vacuum condition during preheating gives a substantial difference on the strength as well as microstructure. It is also found that the failure micromechanism shows several energy absorption processes enhancing fracture toughness.

This paper treats the failure analysis of prestressing steel wires with different kinds of localised damage in the form of a surface defect (crack or notch) or as a mechanical action (transverse loads). From the microscopical point of view, the micromechanisms of fracture are shear dimples (associated with localised plasticity) in the case of the transverse loads and cleavage-like (related to a weakest-link fracture micromechanism) in the case of cracked wires. In the notched geometries the microscopic modes of fracture range from the ductile micro-void coalescence to the brittle cleavage, depending on the stress triaxiality in the vicinity of the notch tip. From the macroscopical point of view, fracture criteria are proposed as design criteria in damage tolerance analyses. The transverse load situation is solved by using an upper bound theorem of limit analysis in plasticity. The case of the cracked wire may be treated using fracture criteria in the framework of linear elastic fracture mechanics on the basis of a previous finite element computation of the stress intensity factor in the cracked cylinder. Notched geometries require the use of elastic-plastic fracture mechanics and numerical analysis of the stress-strain state at the failure situation. A fracture criterion is formulated on the basis of the critical value of the effective or equivalent stress in the Von Mises sense.

본 논문은 세라믹재료가 강화재로써 보강된 복합재료가 횡방향의 단축인장하중을 받는 경우, 복합재료의 변형, 재료내 발생되는 손상의 특징, 및 응력-변형률 특성에 관한 컴퓨터 해석결과이다. 해석은 SiC/Ti 시스템을 대상으로 하였으며, 특성은 강화재의 배열형태, 강화재/기지 계면에서의 결합유무, 강화재의 부피분율변화에 대하여 각기 해석되었다. 계면에서 강한 결합이 있는 복합재와는 달리, 약한 결합의 복합재는 인장하중에 의하여 세라믹/기지 계면에서 분리가 발생되었다. 이 분리는 전체 복합재의 강성을 감소시키며, 세라믹 강화재의 부피분율이 증가할수록 탄성계수 및 횡방향 평균응력의 최종크기를 나타내는 한계응력의 크기감소로 나타났다. 계면결합이 강한 경우는 세라믹 부피분율이 증가할수록 사각형 배열보다는 육각형배열의 복합재에서 다소 큰 증가율로 나타났다. 그러나, 계면결합이 약한 경우는 세라믹 부피분율이 증가할수록 사각형 배열보다는 육각형배열의 복합재에서 상대적으로 큰 감소율로 해석되었다. 본 연구의 해석결과는 알려진 문헌의 결과와 잘 일치하였다.
