The discrete-layer model is proposed to analyze the edge-effect problem of laminates under extension and flexure. Based on three-dimensional elasticity theory, the displacement fields of each layer in a laminate have been treated discretely in terms of three displacement components across the thickness. The displacement fields at bottom and top surfaces within a layer are approximated by two-dimensional shape functions. Then two surfaces are connected by one-dimensional high order shape functions. Thus the p-convergent refinement on approximated one- and two-dimensional shape functions can be implemented independently of each other. The quality of present model is mostly determined by polynomial degrees of shape functions for given displacement fields. For nodal modes with physical meaning, the linear Lagrangian polynomials are considered. Additional modes without physical meaning, which are created by increasing nodeless degrees of shape functions, are derived from integrals of Legendre polynomials which have an orthogonality property. Also, it is assumed that mapping functions are linear in the light of shape of laminated plates. The results obtained by this proposed model are compared with those available in literatures. Especially, three-dimensional out-of-plane stresses in the interior and near the free edges are evaluated and convergence performance of the present model is established with the stress results.

The study was conducted to evaluate reliability of the longitudinal tensile properties of unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced composites. Two kinds of carbon fiber reinforced composites laminates were tested in order to examine the factors of variability and have the information concerning reliability improvement. Temperature dependence of the strength and its variability were investigated by means of testing at two kinds of temperatures. Statistical distributions of the respective mechanical properties were obtained from the tensile tests. As a result, strength of composites was directly proportional to the ultimate strain and was not proportional to the elastic modulus. The fracture behavior in bending of notched plate was studied for a composite material. The uniform bending tests of notched plates have been carried out for a wide range of notch radii. The experiment shows that the nominal stress at failure decreased with decreasing notch radius and it approaches a constant value when the notch radius is less than about 0.3mm. The critical maximum stress is governed by notch root radius alone in the case of a constant thickness of specimen.

The use of external carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates is one of the most effective techniques existing for the confinement of circular concrete specimens. Currently, several researches have been made to develop models for predicting the ultimate conditions of this type of confinement. As most of the major existing models were developed based on limited experimental database. This paper presents the development of new confinement ultimate conditions, strength and strain models, for concrete cylinders confined with CFRP composites based on a statistical analysis of a large existing experimental database of 310 cylindrical concrete specimens wrapped with CFRP. The database is used to evaluate the performance of the proposed and major existing strength and strain models. Based on the two different statistical indices, the coefficient of determination ($R^2$) and the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), the two proposed confinement ultimate conditions presents a good performance compared to the major existing models except the models of Lam and Teng (2003) and Youssef et al. (2007) which have relatively similar performance to the proposed models.

In this article, an exact analytical solution for mechanical buckling analysis of symmetrically cross-ply laminated plates including curvature effects is presented. The equilibrium equations are derived according to the refined nth-order shear deformation theory. The present refined nth-order shear deformation theory is based on assumption that the in-plane and transverse displacements consist of bending and shear components, in which the bending components do not contribute toward shear forces and, likewise, the shear components do not contribute toward bending moments The most interesting feature of this theory is that it accounts for a parabolic variation of the transverse shear strains across the thickness and satisfies the zero traction boundary conditions on the top and bottom surfaces of the plate without using shear correction factors. Buckling of orthotropic laminates subjected to biaxial inplane is investigated. Using the Navier solution method, the differential equations have been solved analytically and the critical buckling loads presented in closed-form solutions. The sensitivity of critical buckling loads to the effects of curvature terms and other factors has been examined. The analysis is validated by comparing results with those in the literature.

Several studies related to reinforce composites structures in the through thickness direction have been developed along the years. As follows, in this study a new reinforced process is proposed based on previous experimental results using a novel stitching process in T-joints and one-stitched specimens. It was established the need to perform more analysis under standard test methods to obtain a better understanding. FEM analysis were compared after performed mode I interlaminar fracture toughness test, using different stitching patterns to analyze the through thickness strength with reference laminates without stitching. The stitching patterns were defined in $2{\times}2$ and $3{\times}3$, where the upper and lower head of the non-continuous stitching process (I-Fiber) has proven to influence in a higher through thickness strength of the laminate. In order to design the numerical model, cohesive parameters were required to define the surface to surface bonding elements using the cohesive zone method (CZM) and simulate the crack opening behavior from the double cantilever beam (DCB) test.

Recently, fiber-reinforced composites have been widely used in various industrials fields. In this study, the mechanical behavior, especially fracture behavior, of biomimetic fiber-reinforced composites subjected to pressure loading was analyzed using finite element analysis (FEA). The fiber alignments in the biomimetic composites formed a helicoidal structure, wherein a stacking sequence involved a gradual rotation of each ply in the multi-layered laminated composites. For comparison, cross-ply composite samples with fibers arranged at 0° and 90° were prepared and analyzed. In addition, the mechanical behavior was analyzed based on combinations of the stacking sequence of carbon-fiber composites and glass-fiber composites. The FEA results showed that, when compared with the cross-ply samples, the mechanical properties of the biomimetic composites were considerably improved under pressure loading, which was applied to one side of the composites. Thus, the biomimetic helicoidal structure significantly improved the mechanical properties of the composites. Placing materials having high elasticity and strength in the outermost layers (the layer of the side on which pressure was applied and the opposite side layer) of the composites also significantly contributed to improving the mechanical properties of the composites.

본 논문에서는 포스트텐션된 철근콘크리트 슬래브를 특별직교이방성 복합적층판 이론으로 해석하였다. 슬래브의 해석에 있어 단면의 기하학적, 물리적 특성이 중립면에서 휨-연계강성 $B_{ij}=0$ 이고, $D_{16}=D_{26}=0$ 임을 고려하였다. 철근콘크리트 슬래브는 특별직교이방성판으로 거동한다. 이러한 경계조건을 갖는 단면 혹은 불규칙한 단면을 갖는 시스템은 해석적 해를 구하기가 매우 어렵다. 이러한 문제에 대한 해석을 위해서 유한차분법이 이용되었다. 본 논문에서는 유한차분법과 보 이론을 해석을 위해 사용되었다. 그 결과 보 이론에 의한 해석 값이 판 이론의 값에 근접함을 알 수 있었다.

복합재 구조물에서 발생하는 저속 충격에 의한 손상은 대부분 복합재의 내부나 충격을 받은 면의 반대 면에서 발생하기 때문에 검출이 쉽지 않아 시간이 지날수록 구조물이 위험에 처할 확률이 높아진다. 하지만 기존의 비파괴검사 방법은 일정한 주기에 따라 수행되기 때문에 즉각적으로 충격 손상을 감지할 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 따라서 최근에는 이러한 단점을 극복하고자 비파괴검사 장비를 구조물 내에 탑재하여 실시간으로 구조물의 건전성을 확인하는 개념인 구조 건전성 모니터링에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그 중의 하나인 충격 모니터링 시스템은 운용 중에 발생한 충격 이벤트를 감지하고 그 위치 및 손상 정도에 대한 정보를 제공해 주어야 한다. 이를 위한 첫 번째 단계로 본 연구에서는 복합재 평판 및 복잡한 복합재 시편 구조물에 FBG 센서를 부착하여 충격 위치 검출 시험을 수행하였고, 이와 같은 복합재 시편에 대해 충격 파손 시험을 수행하여 손상 발생 유무를 예측하는 시험을 수행하였다. 저속 충격에 의해 발생하는 음향 파는 (주)파어버프로에서 개발한 고속 FBG interrogator를 사용하여 4개의 다중화된 FBG 센서로부터 동시에 취득하였고, 신경회로망을 이용한 학습을 거쳐 충격 발생 위치를 검출하였다. 또한 충격 파손 시험으로부터 취득한 음향 파의 웨이블릿 변환을 통해 충격 손상의 발생 유무 예측 가능성을 확인하였다.

고속충격을 받는 복합재 적층판의 충격거동 특성 중에서 관통 후 잔류속도, 시편에 의한 충격흡수에너지 그리고 충격손상영역에 대한 평가와 예측이 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 고속충격을 받는 Carbon/Epoxy 복합재 적층판의 잔류속도와 흡수에너지를 준실험적 방법을 통하여 예측할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 고속충격에 의한 시편의 흡수에너지를 정적에너지와 동적에너지로 구분하였으며 정적에너지는 보강섬유의 파손과 정적 탄성에너지와 관련 있는 준정적압입실험을 통한 관통에너지를 사용하였다. 동적에너지는 고속충격 시 시편 일부의 움직임과 관련한 운동에너지에 대하여 몇 가지 모델을 제안하여 비교하였다. 공압을 이용한 고속충격실험을 수행하고 예측 값과 비교 분석하였다. 시편의 손상영역은 C-scan을 통하여 측정하였다. 관통한계속도보다 큰 초기 속도인 경우, 정적에너지인 관통에너지 뿐 만 아니라 시편의 동적 에너지가 시편 전체 흡수에너지에 크게 기여함을 알 수 있었다.

항공기 복합재료 날개 구조는 대부분 접착 혹은 패스너로 체결되어 있는데, 이러한 적층 구조 복합재료는 층간 강도가 취약하여 층간 분리가 일어나기 쉽다. 이러한 적층 복합재료의 단점을 보완하기 위해 두께 방향의 섬유를 보강한 3차원 직조형 복합재료를 통하여 강도, 손상 내구성, 충격 및 피로 하중을 향상시킬 수 있다. 또한, 자동화된 직조 공정에 의하여 단일 구조 near-net-shape의 프리폼 제조가 가능하기 때문에 공정 단축, 체결 부품 감소로 복합재료 전체 가격을 절감할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 3차원 직조형 복합재료의 항공기 구조물 적용 가능성을 확인하기 위하여 3차원 프리폼의 기본적인 구조인 orthogonal(ORT), layer-to-layer(LTL), through-the-thickness(TTT) 패턴을 직조하고 이를 복합재료로 성형하여 압축 시험, 인장 시험, Open-hole 인장 시험을 하였다. 이 중 orthogonal 직조 복합재료가 인장 및 압축 탄성계수와 강도 모두 가장 높았으며 노치 민감도에서도 orthogonal 복합재료가 일방향 적층복합재료나 패브릭 적층 복합재료에 비하여 가장 우수한 특성을 보였다.
