  • The knowledge of interaction of electromagnetic waves in composite structures is important for designing the shielding structure for antenna such as radome. Recently, radomes are constructed in the form of foam core sandwich structures that have many mechanical advantages such as high strength, long fatigue life, low density and adaptability to the intended function of structure. However, the propagation of electromagnetic waves is affected by high anisotropic permeability and loss tangent of the composite skin. In this study, the analytical model to understand the propagation of electromagnetic waves in the anisotropic composites and foam core sandwich structures with composite skins was proposed. Numerical analyses of unidirectional composites and foam core sandwich structure as a function of incident angle were performed. From the results of analysis, the general tendencies of transmittance of electromagnetic wave through composites and foam core sandwich structure were obtained.

  • In the modern era, the world is facing unprecedented challenges in form of environmental pollution and international agencies are forcing scientists and materialists to look for green materials and structures to counter this problem. Composites based on renewable sources like plant based fibres, vegetable fibres are finding increasing use in interior components of automobile vehicles, aircraft, and building construction. In the present study, jute and flax fibre based composites were developed and tested for assessing their suitability for possible applications in interior cabin and parts of automobile and aerospace vehicles. Matrix system involves epoxy as resin and fibre weight fractions used were 45% and 55% respectively. Composites samples were prepared as per American society for testing and materials (ASTM) standard and were tested for individual fiber tensile strength, composite tensile strength, and flexural strength to analyse its behavior under various loading conditions. The results revealed that the Jute fibre composites possess enhanced mechanical properties over Flax fibre composites.

  • In this study, isophtalic neopentyl glycol polyester (NPG-PES) based composites with different loading ratios of pure tungsten metal (W), tungsten (VI) oxide (WO3), tungsten boron (WB) and tungsten carbide (WC) composites were prepared as alternative shielding materials for ionizing electromagnetic radiation (IEMR) shielding. Structural characterizations of the composites were done. Gamma spectrometric analysis of composites for 80-2000 keV energy range was performed and their usability as IEMR shielding was discussed. As a result, the produced composites showed a shielding performance of 60-100% of the lead (the most widely used IEMR shielding material) depending on the reinforcement material, reinforcement loading rate and experimental conditions. Thus, it was reported that produced composites could be an alternative to lead shieldings that have several disadvantages as toxic properties, difficulty of processing and inelasticity.

  • Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are considered suitable candidates for structural materials of spacecrafts due to their excellent properties of high strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance. An online health monitoring method for FRP composites must be applied to space structures. However, the application of existing health monitoring methods to space structures is limited due to the harsh space environment. Here, carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites embedded with fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors were prepared to explore the feasibility of strain monitoring using embedded FBG sensors in γ-radiation environment. The analysis of the influence of radiation on the strain monitoring demonstrated that the embedded FBG can be successfully applied to the health monitoring of FRP composites in radiation environment.

  • 최근 국내에서도 지진의 발생 가능성이 증가하는 추세이며 교량 및 터널 등의 시설물에 대한 지진과 같은 예상하지 못한 작용하중에 대한 안전성을 강화하고 있다. 특히, 1988년 이전 건설된 도시철도 시설물의 대부분은 내진설계가 반영되지 않아 지진하중에 대해 취약할 수 있으므로, 내진안전성에 대한 검토와 보강이 요구되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 도시철도 개착식 터널의 내진성능 향상을 도모하고자, 구조적 취약부분인 내측 기둥에 내진보강을 위한 새로운 FRP-연성재 적층복합체를 제안하였다. 적층조건에 따른 FRP-연성재 적층복합체에 대한 실험을 통해 재료물성치를 산출하여, 이를 근간으로 수치모델을 작성하였다. 수치해석을 통해 제안된 보강재로 보강된 RC기둥의 내진성능이 증대됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한 섬유보강재의 적층조건 (연성재의 종류, FRP 적층수, 섬유배향각)에 따라 성능 향상의 차이가 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • 최근 탄소 중립 등 지속 가능한 발전을 위한 지구환경 문제가 대두되면서 기존 풍력터빈의 소재인 유리섬유 복합재의 폐기 시 처리 방안이 문제가 되고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 기존의 유리섬유 복합재를 대체할 수 있는 친환경 복합재인 아마섬유 기반 복합재를 활용하여 30kW 풍력터빈 블레이드를 제조하고 적합성을 평가하였다. 먼저 친환경 천연 아마섬유 복합재의 풍력터빈 블레이드 소재로 활용 가능성을 검증하기 위해 기계적 강도 시험을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 선행 아마섬유 복합재 물성 연구 대비 좀 더 우수한 강도가 측정된 것을 확인하였다. 또한 제작된 30kW 급 아마섬유 복합재 블레이드를 활용하여 아마섬유 복합재 블레이드의 정적강도를 측정하는 정적강도 성능평가 시험을 통하여 적합성을 확인하였다.

  • Carbon/carbon composites are ideal candidates for a number of aerospace applications including structural materials for advanced vehicles, leading edges, structures of re-entry and hypersonic vehicles and propulsion systems. One serious defect for such application of the carbon/carbon composites is their poor oxidation resistance in high temperature oxidizing environments. SiC coating was employed to protect the composites from oxidation. It is mechanically and chemically stable under extreme thermal and oxidative environments, provides good adhesion to the substrate, and offers good thermal shock resistance. The SiC layer on the nozzle machined from the carbon/carbon composites was formed by pack-cementation method. Then, erosion characteristic of SiC coated carbon/carbon nozzle was examined by combustion test using a liquid rocket motor. The erosion rates were measured as function of combustion pressure, ratio of oxygen to fuel, combustion time, density of the composites and geometry of reinforced carbon fibre in the composites. The morphology change of the composites after combustion test was investigated using SEM and erosion mechanism also was discussed.
