Young's modulus of composite has been predicted by Eshelby's equivalent inclusion method modified with Mori-Tanaka's mean field theory, where short fibers of aspect ratio distribution are assumed to be aligned. Young's modulus of the composite is predicted with the smallest class interval for simulating the actual distribution of fiber aspect ratio, which is compared with that computed using different class intervals. Young's modulus of the composite predicted with mean aspect ratio or the largest class interval is overestimated by the maximum 10%. As the class interval of short fibers for predicting Young's modulus decreases, the predicted results show good agreements with those obtained using the actual distribution of fiber aspect ratio. It can be finally concluded from the study that if and only if the class interval of short fiber normalized by the maximum aspect ratio is smaller than 0.1, the predicted results are consistent with those obtained using the actual distribution of aspect ratio.

단섬유 강화고무의 관통 특성에 대해 섬유 종횡비(AR: 섬유 길이/섬유 직경), 섬유 함유량, 시편 크기 그리고 시험속도를 변수로 하여 연구하였다. 기지와 단섬유 강화고무의 관통 저항은 시편 크기의 증가에 따라 감소하였고, 동일한 시편 크기에서 시험 속도의 증가에 따라 관통 저항력은 증가하였다. 각각의 섬유 함유량에서 섬유 종횡비가 클수록 높은 관통응력 값을 보였다. 인장강도와 관통응력의 비교를 통해 시편 형상의 문제점에 대해 고찰하였다. 기지와 단섬유 강화고무의 막에 작용하는 힘은 시편의 크기에 관계없이 유사한 값을 보였고, 동일한 시편 크기에서 시험속도의 증가에 따라 증가하였다. 각각의 섬유함유량에서 섬유 종횡비가 클수록 막에 작용하는 힘은 크게 나타났다 전체적으로 시편 크기, 시험속도가 단섬유 강화고무의 관통 특성에 지대한 영향을 미침을 확인하였다.

나일론6 단섬유를 보강한 NR과 SBR의 인장특성에 대해 섬유 종횡비(AR), 직경비(DR), 계면상 조건, 그리고 섬유 함유률을 함수로 연구하였다. 인장강도는 우수한 계면조건에서 AR(20min.)이 증가할수록 증가하였다 단섬유(DR=3, AR=20min.) 강화 SBR은 모든 계면조건에서 희석효과를 보이지 않았다. 동일한 단섬유를 보강한 NR의 경우도 No Coating을 제외하고는 희석효과를 보이지 않았다. 인장탄성률은 동일한 직경비에서 AR이 증가할수록, 섬유 함유률이 높을수록. 계면조건이 우수할수록 크게 증가하였다. 동일한 직경비에서 계면조건이 우수할수록 이탈 힘은 크게 나타났다. 또한 단섬유 강화 메커니즘을 확인하기 위해 축대칭 모델을 이용 응력해석을 실시하였다. 본 연구를 통해 AR, 계면상 조건. 그리고 DR이 강화고무의 인장특성에 중요한 역할을 항을 확인하였다.

In order to analyze the stress distribution and stress concentration factors in composite materials, especially, in the short fiber of the reinforced composite materials by photoelastic method, it is necessary to develop the photoelastic model material having short fibers with arbitrary size and orientation. In this paper, the orthotropic photoelastic model material having short fibers for the transparent type photoelastic device was developed by the embedded corrosion fiber method. It was found that the model material was satisfactory to the properties of photoelastic model material, and also that the embedded corrosion fiber method can be employed for developing a model material with arbitrary size and direction to analyze the stress distribution and crack problems of composite materials.

This study presents a mathematical model predicting the stress-strain behavior of fiber reinforced (FMMCs) and fiber/particle reinforced metal matrix composites (F/P MMCs). MMCs were fabricated by squeeze casting method using Al2O3 short fiber and particle as reinforcement, and A356 aluminum alloy as matrix. The fiber/particle ratios of F/P MMCs were 2:1, 1:1, 1:2 with the total reinforcement volume fraction of 20 vol.%, and the FMMCs were reinforced with 10 vol,%, 15 vol. %, 20 vol. % of fibers. Tensile tests were conducted and compared with predictions which were derived using laminate analogy theory and multi-failure model of reinforcements. Results show that the tensile strength of FMMCs with 10 vol.% of fiber was well matched with prediction, and as the fiber volume increases, predictions become larger than experimental results. The difference between the prediction and experiment is considered to be a result of matrix allowance of fiber damage in tensile loading. As the fiber volume fraction in FMMCs increases, the fiber damage increases and so that the tensile strength is reduced. The strength of F/P MMCs approaches more closely to the prediction than FMMCs reinforced with 20 vol.% of fibers because F/P MMCs contains small quantity of fibers and thus has a positive effect in fiber strengthening.

In order to investigate the effect of the ceramic reinforcements on the wear properties of aluminum bronze composites, Cu-8wt%Al aluminum bronze alloys reinforced with the Saffil alumina short fiber were produced by the powder metallurgical method and tested by a pin-ondisc wear testing machine. The wear surfaces of the pin specimens and discs, wear debris, and the cross sections of the wear specimens were observed by SEM. The wear mechanism according to various wear conditions and the change of microstructure in the composites were also discussed. In the results, the reinforcement of the composites with alumina short fiber was very effective at the higher applied load over 10N. The material transportation to the counter disc was observed in the alloy specimens without reinforcements. However, the composites reinforced with ceramic particles and fibers showed the resistance against the material transportation.

본 연구에서는 입자형태인 두 가지 이상의 강화제가 기지 내에 무작위로 분포하여 하이브리드 복합재료를 이룰 때, 강화제의 함유량에 따른 복합재료의 인장강도 및 탄성계수를 예측할 수 있는 이론 모델을 제안하였다. 이를 위하여 연속적인 두 강화제가 기지 내에 평행하게 분포한 복합재료 모델에 입자형태의 한 가지 강화제가 무작위하게 분포한 복합재료 모델을 수정 적용하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 모델의 정확성과 타당성을 논의하기 위해, 산업체에서 널리 쓰이고 있는 폴리프로필렌을 기지로 하고, 탈크와 유리단섬유를 서로 다른 강화제로 한 복합재료를 제작하여 인장강도 및 탄성계수를 측정하였다. 인장강도 값을 예측하는 경우, 이전의 이론 모델이 실험 측정값과 7배 이상의 오차를 보이는 반면 본 연구의 모델은 비슷한 값을 예측하였다. 탄성계수의 경우에도 본 연구의 모델은 비교적 정확하게 실험 측정 값을 예측할 수 있었다.

Drop weight impact tests were performed to investigate the impact behavior of carbon fiber/epoxy composite laminates reinforced by short fibers and other interleaving materials. Characterization techniques, such as cross-sectional fractography and scanning acoustic microscopy, were employed quantitatively to assess the internal damage of some composite laminates. Scanning electron microscopy was used to observe impact damage and fracture modes on specimen fracture surfaces. The results show that composite laminates experience various types of fracture; delamination, intra-ply cracking, matrix cracking and fiber breakage depending on the interlayer materials. Among the composite laminates tested in this study, the composites reinforced by Zylon fibers showed very good impact damage resistance with medium level of damage, while the composites interleaved by poly(ethylene-co-acrylic acid) (PEEA) film is expected to deteriorate the bulk strength due to the reduction of fiber volume fraction, even though the damaged area is significantly reduced.

In the present investigation the experimental and theoretical flexural and compressive behavior of short tubular steel columns filled with plain concrete and fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) was examined. For a given length of the members, the effects of different geometry and dimensions of the transverse cross-section (square and circular) were investigated. Constituent materials were characterized through direct tensile tests on steel coupons and through compressive and split tension tests on concrete cylinders. Load-axial shortening and load-deflection curves were recorded for unfilled and composite members. Finally, simplified expressions for the calculus of the load-deflection curves based on the cross-section analysis were given and the ultimate load of short columns was predicted.

Recently, large efforts have been made to develop and understand the behavior of Fiber Reinforced Concrete. As in the static loading cases, many researches have been done. However, a few studies have been conducted in cyclic behaviors of FRC. The main objective of the present work is to investigate the cyclic behavior of fiber reinforced concrete with theoretical method. First, cyclic constitutive relations which describe the crack bridging stress considering non-uniform interfacial bond degradation in short randomly oriented fiber reinforced matrix composites under uniaxial cyclic tension were considered. A cyclic degradation model of single fiber based on micromechanics also taken into consideration. As an example, fatigue analysis for ECC with PVA fiber was conducted using proposed equations. Results shows that proposed method can establish a basis for analyzing cyclic behavior of fiber reinforced composites.
