본 논문에서 한국해양연구원에서 개발 중인 20인승급 소형 위그선의 주익 구조 설계 및 해석에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 경량화를 위해 탄소/에폭시 복합재료를 적용하였으며, 구조 형태는 스킨 스파 폼 샌드위치 구조를 사용하였다. 개념 설계에는 복합재 설계 개념을 반영하였고, 상세 설계 및 경량화 구조 설계에는 상용 유한 요소 코드인 NASTRAN을 이용하여 구조 설계를 수행하였다. 여러 단계의 구조 설계 변경을 통해 최종 구조 설계 결과는 설계 요구 조건을 만족하는 결과임을 확인하였다. 또한 주익을 동체에 고정하기 위해 8개의 고강도 볼트를 이용한 삽입 볼트형 구조가 용이한 장탈과 20넌 이상의 피로 수명의 고려를 통해 채택되었다.

An apparatus was developed to repetitively apply a -196 $^{\circ}C$ thermal load to coupon-sized mechanical test specimens. Using this device, IM7/5250-4 (carbon / bismaleimide) cross-ply and quasi-isotropic laminates were submerged in liquid nitrogen (L$N_2$) 400 times. Ply-by-Ply micro-crack density, laminate modulus, and laminate strength were measured as a function of thermal cycles. Quasi-isotropic samples of IM7/977-3 (carbon / epoxy) composite were also manually cycled between liquid nitrogen and an oven set at 120 $^{\circ}C$ for 130 cycles to determine whether including elevated temperature in the thermal cycle significantly altered the degree or location of micro-cracking. In response to thermal cycling, both materials micro-cracked extensively in the surface plies followed by sparse cracking of the inner plies. The tensile modulus of the IM7/5250-4 specimens was unaffected by thermal cycling, but the tensile strength of two of the lay-ups decreased by as much as 8.5 %.

Interfacial evaluation and damage sensing of the carbon fiber/epoxy-amine terminated (AT)-polyetherimide (PEI) composites were performed using micromechanical test and electrical resistance measurement. As AT-PEI content increased, the fracture toughness of epoxy-AT-PEI matrix increased, and thus their interfacial shear strength (IFSS) was improved due to the improved toughness. After curing process, the changes in electrical resistance (ΔR) with increasing AT-PEI contents increased gradually because of the changes in thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) and thermal shrinkage of matrix. Matrix fracture toughness was correlated to the IFSS, residual stress and electrical resistance. The results obtained from the electrical resistance measurement during curing process, reversible stress/strain, and durability test were consistent with modified matrix toughness properties.

This paper presents the fabrication process of water-lubricated plastic bearings. Plastic bearings require good mechanical properties and tribological properties as well as elasticity and shock resistance, especially when lubricated in dirty water conditions. In this study, sleeve-type plastic bearings are produced by winding a prepreg sheet, which primary contains nitrile rubber (NBR)-modified epoxy, self-lubricating fillers, and various types of lattice-structured reinforcing fibers such as carbon, Aramid, and polyethylene terephthalate. A thermosetting epoxy is chemically modified with NBR to impart elasticity and low-friction characteristics in water conditions. Experimental investigations are conducted to examine the mechanical and tribological characteristics of the developed bearing materials, and the results are compared with the characteristics of a commercial plastic bearing (Thordon SXL), well known as a water-lubricated bearing. A Thordon bearing (mainly composed of polyurethane) exhibits an extremely low load-bearing capacity and is thus only suitable for medium loading (1~10MPa). The tribological characteristics of the test materials are evaluated through Falex block-on-ring (LFW-1) friction and wear tests. The results indicate that friction exhibited by the carbon-fiber-reinforced NBR-10wt.%-modified epoxy composite material, incorporated with the addition of 20wt.% UHMWPE and 6wt.% paraffin wax, is lower than that of the Thorden bearings, whereas its wear resistance surpass that of Thorden ones. Because of these features, the load carrying capacity of the fabricated composite (>10MPa) is higher than that of the Thorden bearings. These results confirm the applicability of water-lubricated plastic bearing materials developed in this study.

This study is about the effect of braiding on the 2-D biaxial braided hollow composite(BD) compared with unidirectional hollow composite(UD). The specimens were made of T700S Carbon/Epoxy prepreg and T700S dried Carbon yarns. Fiber volume fraction of UD and BD was obtained experimentally and analytically. Fiber volume fraction of BD was derived based on unit cell of braiding yarn section. Bending test was executed to investigate the effect of braiding part. The result of experiment and analysis of fiber volume fraction has good agreement. Bending strength of BD is about 20% higher than that of UD.

Recently, composite material which has much excellent mechanical characteristics has been applied in many industries. However, it has a brittle characteristic under impact condition and its invisible characteristics of the damaged area has been the motivation of many engineers investigation. The modified failure criterion is implemented to predict the failure behavior of the composite plate subjected to low velocity impact using commercial finite element analysis code, ABAQUS-Ver. 5.8. The new criterion is in good agreement with experimental results and can predict the failure behavior of the composite plate subjected to low velocity impact more accurately.

The natural fibre composites are termed as bio-composites. They have shown a promising replacement to the current carbon/glass fibre reinforced composites as environmental friendly materials in specific applications. Natural fibre reinforced composites are potential materials for various engineering applications in automobile, railways, building and Aerospace industry. The natural fibre selected to fabricate the composite material is plant-based fibre e.g., sisal fibre. Sisal fibre is a suitable reinforcement for use in composites on account of its low density, high specific strength, and high hardness. Epoxy is a thermosetting polymer which is used as a resin in natural fibre reinforced composites. Hand lay-up technique was used to fabricate the composites by reinforcing sisal fibres into the epoxy matrix. Composites were prepared with the unidirectional alignment of sisal fibres. Test specimens with different fibre orientations were prepared. The fabricated composites were tested for mechanical properties. Impact test, tensile test, flexural test, hardness test, compression test, and thermal test of composites had been conducted to assess its suitability in industrial applications. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) test revealed the microstructural information of the fractured surface of composites.

극저온 온도에서 최적복합재료물성치의 사전 연구로서, 실온과 저온, 즉 $25^{\circ}C$와 $-10^{\circ}C$에서 카본 혹은 유리섬유가 함침된 에폭시 복합재료의 계면 물성치가 미세역학인 시험법을 사용하여 평가되었다. 인장과 압축하중 조건에서 저온에서의 기계적인 강성도가 상온에서의 강성도보다 증대하였다. 실온과 저온에서의 계면전단강도가 에폭시 기지의 인성과 겉보기 강성도를 사용하여 상호 비교하였다. 기지의 강성도 향상으로 인해 계면전단강도가 실온보다 저온에서 높게 나타났다. 유리와 카본 섬유의 인장 강도들의 통계적인 분포가 다른 온도의 범위 평가되었고, 이것들은 섬유의 고유결함과 견고함에 의해서 결정된다.

온도, 수분 및 자외선과 같은 자연환경을 모사할 수 있는 가속노화시험장치를 적용하여 복합적인 환경인자에 노출된 탄소섬유/에폭시 복합재의 열분석 특성과 화학구조분석을 수행하였다. 복합적인 환경인자의 최대 노출시간은 3000시간으로 노출시간에 따른 복합재의 열분석 특성과 화학구조는 Modulated DSE와 FTIR을 통해 조사하였다. Modulated DSC 시험을 통한 연우-결과에 따르면 노출시간이 증가할수록 복합재 내에 치밀한 망사 구조가 형성되어 유리전이온도는 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 노출시간이 증가할수록 복합재의 특성에 영향을 미치는 물리시효가 발생하여 엔탈피 완화현상을 나타내는 흡열 피크가 관찰되었다. 아울러 FTIR 시험을 통해 관찰된 피크의 위치는 노출시간에 큰 영향을 받지 않지만 피크의 세기는 노출시간이 증가할수록 에폭시기에 발생되는 경화 반응으로 인해 점차 감소함을 알 수 있었다.

미소 드랍릿 시편을 이용한 탄소섬유와 에폭시 수지 사이의 계면전단강도에 대해 시험분석하였다. 또한 드랍릿 모델, 원형 단면 모델, 인발모델의 3종류의 유한요소해석을 통해 섬유/수지간의 응력분포를 계산하였다. 본 연구결과는 다음과 같다. (1) 미소드랍릿 시험의 경우는 인발시험보다 섬유/수지의 계면에서 큰 응력집중이 나타났으며 계면박리가 낮은 하중수준에서도 발생하기 용이함을 알수 있었다. (2) 미소드랍릿시험에서 높은 계면강도를 보였는데, 이는 미소드랍릿의 형상과 사이즈, 바이스팁과 접촉하는 부위의 응력집중효과를 함께 받았기 때문으로 해석되었다.
