It is well-known that the mechanical behavior of fiber-reinforced composites under hydrostatic pressure environment is different from that of atmospheric pressure environment. It is also known that the mechanical behavior of fiber-reinforced composites is affected by a strain rate. In this work, we investigated the effect of strain rate on the compressive elastic modulus, fracture stress, and fracture strain of carbon/epoxy composites under hydrostatic pressure environment. The material used in the compressive test was unidirectional carbon/epoxy composites and the hydrostatic pressures applied was 270㎫. Compressive tests were performed applying three strain rates of 0.05％/sec, 0.25％/sec, and 0.55％/sec. The results showed that the elastic modulus increased with increasing strain rate while the fracture stress was little affected by the strain rate. The results also showed that the fracture strain decreased with increasing strain rate.

In order to determine the effects of hydrostatic pressure on the mechanical behavior of graphite fiber reinforced composites, the modulus, fracture stress(maximum stress), and fracture strain of graphite/epoxy composites have been determined as a function of pressure. Composite specimens used in this study were 90-deg unidirectional and had a 60% fiber volume fraction. Compressive tests under five different pressure levels were conducted. The result showed the modulus measured from as initial slope of stress-strain curve increased bilinearly with pressure with a break at 200 MPa. It was also found that fracture stress and fracture strain increased in a linear fashion with pressure.

본 논문에서는 압축파괴에너지를 이용하여 고강도 구속콘크리트에 대한 응력-변형률 모델을 제안하였다. 참고문헌[5]에서 저자가 실시한 압축실험에는 변형률 게이지를 부착한 아크릴 막대를 실험체의 중앙부에 매립하여 압축부재의 국부 변형률 측정을 시도하였다. 이 아크릴 막대를 이용한 국부 변형률 측정은 매우 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 압축파괴영역길이는 아크릴 막대로부터 측정된 국부 변형률 분포에 기초하여 정의되었다. 구체적으로, 구속콘크리트의 국소파괴영역길이는 압축강도 발현시의 변형률 ${\varepsilon}_{cc}$의 2배 이상 변형률이 증가하는 영역으로 정의하였다. 또한, 동일한 횡구속압을 받는 압축부재에 흡수된 에너지양은 부재의 형상이나 크기에 관계없이 일정하다는 가정에서 압축 파괴에너지를 도입한 구속콘크리트의 응력-변형률 관계를 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 모델은 본 연구의 실험결과뿐만 아니라 타 연구자들의 실험결과를 대체적으로 잘 예측하는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper investigates the mechanisms of tunnel spalling and massive tunnel failures using fracture mechanics principles. The study starts with examining the fracture propagation due to tensile and shear failure mechanisms. It was found that, fundamentally, in rock masses with high compressive stresses, tensile fracture propagation is often a stable process which leads to a gradual failure. Shear fracture propagation tends to be an unstable process. Several real case observations of spalling failures and massive shear failures in boreholes, tunnels and underground roadways are shown in the paper. A number of numerical models were used to investigate the fracture mechanisms and extents in the roof/wall of a deep tunnel and in an underground coal mine roadway. The modelling was done using a unique fracture mechanics code FRACOD which simulates explicitly the fracture initiation and propagation process. The study has demonstrated that both tensile and shear fracturing may occur in the vicinity of an underground opening. Shallow spalling in the tunnel wall is believed to be caused by tensile fracturing from extensional strain although no tensile stress exists there. Massive large scale failure however is most likely to be caused by shear fracturing under high compressive stresses. The observation that tunnel spalling often starts when the hoop stress reaches $0.4^*UCS$ has been explained in this paper by using the extension strain criterion. At this uniaxial compressive stress level, the lateral extensional strain is equivalent to the critical strain under uniaxial tension. Scale effect on UCS commonly believed by many is unlikely the dominant factor in this phenomenon.

In this study, we investigated compressive characteristics of seawater-absorbed carbon-epoxy composite under hydrostatic pressure environment. The hydrostatic pressures applied were 0.1 MPa, 100 MPa, 200 MPa, and 270 MPa. The results showed that the compressive elastic modulus increased about 10 ％ as the hydrostatic pressure increased from 0.1 MPa to 200 MPa. The modulus increased 2.3 ％ more as the pressure increased to 270 MPa. Fracture strength and fracture strain increased with pressure in a linear fashion. Fracture strength increased 28 ％ and fracture strain increased 8.5 ％ as the hydrostatic pressure increased from 0.1 MPa to 270 MPa.

본 논문에서는 고분자기지 복합재의 해저환경에서의 압축특성에 대한 영향을 연구하였다. 실험에 사용된 시편은 두꺼운 두께를 갖는 적층된 Carbon-Epoxy 복합재를 사용하였으며, 충분한 해수 함유를 위해 시편을 해수에 13개원 동안 침지시켰다. Carbon-Epoxy 복합재의 포화 해수함유량은 시편무게의 약 1.2%였다. 해저환경을 모사하기 위해 네 경우의 정수압력(0.1, 100, 200, 270 MPa)을 적용하여 실험하였다. 실험결과로써 압축탄성계수는 정수압력이 0.1 MPa에서 200 MPa로 증가함에 따라 약 10%정도 증가하였다. 또한 압력을 270 MPa로 증가시킴에 따라 압축탄성계수는 2.3%가 더 증가하였다. 압축파괴강도와 압축파괴변형률은 정수압력이 증가함에 따라 선형적으로 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 정수압력이 0.1 MPa에서 270 MPa로 증가함에 따라 압축파괴강도는 약28％가 증가하였고 압축파괴변형률은 약 8.5%의 증가를 나타내었다.

In this thesis, fracture test was performed in order to investigate the fracture strength of SFRC(steel fiber reinforced concrete) structures. The relationship between the compressive force and strain value of SFRC specimens were observed under the compressive strength test. From the fracture test results, the relationship between percentage of fiber by volume, compressive strength, elastic modulus, and tensile strength of SFRC beams were studied, and the measured elastic modulus of SFRC were compared with the calculated elastic modulus by ACI committee 544.

The deformation and fracture behaviors of a bulk amorphous metal, Zr-based one (Zr$\_$41.2/Ti$\_$13.8/Cu$\_$12.5/Ni$\_$10/Be$\_$22.5/: Vitreloy), were investigated over a strain rate range (7x10$\^$-4/～4 s$\^$-1/). The uniaxial compression test and the indentation test using 3mm-diameter WC balls were carried out under quasi-static loading conditions. As a result, at the uniaxial compressive state, the fracture stress of the material was very high (～1,700MPa) and the elastic strain limit was about 2%. The fracture strength showed a strain rate independent behavior up to 4 s$\^$-1/. Using indentation tests, the plastic deformation behavior of the Zr-based BAM up to a large strain value of 15% could be achieved, even though it was the deformation under locally constrained condition. The Meyer hardness of the Zr-based BAM measured by static indentation tests was about 5 GPa and it revealed negligible strain hardening behavior. At indented sites, the plastic indentation occurred forming a crater and well-developed multiple shear bands were generated around it along the direction of 45 degree when the indentation load exceeded 7kN. With increasing indentation load, shear bands became dense. The fracture surface of the specimen after uniaxial compressive tests showed vein-like pattern, typical morphology of many BAMs.

High strain-rate deformation behavior of NiAl/Ni micro-laminated composites was characterized by split hopkins on pressure bar(SHPB). When the strain rate increased, the compressive stress of micro-laminated composites were increased a little. When the intermetallic volume fraction increased, the compressive stress of micro-laminated composites increased linearly irrespective of strain rate. Absorbed energy during the quasi-static and SHPB tests was calculated from the integrated area of stress-strain curve. Absorbed energy of micro-laminated composites deviated from the linearity in terms of the intermetallic volume fraction but merged to the value of intermetallic as the strain rate increased. This was due to high tendency of intermetallic layer for the localization of shear deformation at high strain rate. Microstructure showing adibatic shear band(ASB) confirmed that the shear strain calculated from the misalignment angle of each layer increased and ASB width decreased when the intermetallic volume fraction. Simulation test impacted by tungsten heavy alloy cylinder resulted that the absorbed energies multiplied by damaged volume of micro-laminated composites were decreased as the intermetallic volume fraction increased. Fracture mode were changed from delamination to single fracture when the intermetallic volume fraction and this results were good matched with previous results[l] obtained from the fracture tests.
