This paper depicts the development and characterizations of laminated composites made with cellulosic giant cane (Arundinaria gigantea) fiber mats and epoxy resin. Zirconia-toughened mullite (ZTM) is used as a filler material in the laminated composite which was prepared from sillimanite through plasma processing technique. The mechanical characterizations of this composite have been carried out as per ASTM standards to evaluate its usability as a structural material. The effects of varying weight percentages of the filler and two different fiber orientations namely, angle-ply [$+45^{\circ}/-45^{\circ}/+45^{\circ}$] and balanced cross-ply [$0^{\circ}/90^{\circ}/0^{\circ}$] on the physical and mechanical properties such as density, microhardness, impact strength, tensile strength and interlaminar shear strength of the layered composite specimens have been investigated. The study indicates that the inclusion of zirconia-toughened mullite in the composite laminate as filler improves its mechanical properties. Moreover, the use of giant cane fiber mat in the laminate is more eco-friendly than the synthetic fibers. This research also helps in generating additional data to enrich the repository of natural fiber reinforced laminated composites.

A theoretical model for predicting the capability curve of cellulose acetate filter is derived. The pressure drop is expressed as a function of the filter dimensions, the tow fiber characteristics, the filter weight, the fluid flow rate, and a filter fiber factor. Where, the filter fiber factor is affected by the distribution of the tow fibers within the filter, the relative orientations of the tow fibers, and their cross-sectional shapes. The minimum and maximum fraction of solids in capability curves determined from experimental data. Also, the filter fiber factor is expressed as a function of the filter length, tow fiber length, and tow fiber diameter. Capability curves predicted by the suggested model in this work correspond well with capability curves by experimental data.

In this study, free vibration analyses of symmetric laminated cantilever and simply supported damaged composite beams are investigated by using finite element method (FEM). Free vibration responses of damaged beams are examined using Euler Bernoulli beam and classical lamination theories. A computer code is developed by using MATLAB software to determine the natural frequencies of a damaged beam. The local damage zone is assumed to be on the surface lamina of the beam by broken fibers after impact. The damaged zone is modeled as a unidirectional discontinuous lamina with $0^{\circ}$ orientations in this study. Fiber volume fraction ($v_f$), fiber aspect ratio ($L_f/d_f$), damage length ($L_D$) and its location (${\lambda}/L$), fiber orientation and stacking sequence parameters effects on natural frequencies are investigated. These parameters are affected the natural frequency values significantly.

PVA 섬유 보강 시멘트 복합체는 매우 복잡한 미세구조를 가지고 있으며, 재료의 거동을 정확히 평가하기 위해서는 미세구조 특성을 반영하여 실제 실험과 시너지효과를 내며 효율적인 재료 설계를 가능하게 하는 해석 모델의 개발이 중요하다. PVA 섬유 보강 시멘트 복합체의 역학적 성능은 PVA 섬유의 방향성에 큰 영향을 받는다. 그러나 마이크로-CT 이미지로부터 얻은 PVA 섬유의 회색조 값을 인접한 상과 구분하기 어려워, 섬유 분리 과정에 많은 시간이 소요된다. 본 연구에서는 섬유의 3차원 분포를 얻기 위하여 0.65㎛³의 복셀 크기를 가지는 마이크로-CT 이미지 촬영을 수행하였다. 학습에 사용될 학습 데이터를 생성하기 위해 히스토그램, 형상, 그리고 구배 기반 상 분리 방법을 적용하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 U-net 모델을 활용하여 PVA 섬유 보강 시멘트 복합체의 마이크로- CT 이미지로부터 섬유를 분리하는 학습을 수행하였다. 훈련의 정확도를 높이기 위해 데이터 증강을 적용하였으며, 총 1024개의 이미지를 훈련 데이터로 사용하였다. 모델의 성능은 정확도, 정밀도, 재현율, F1 스코어를 평가하였으며, 학습된 모델의 섬유 분리 성능이 매우 높고 효율적이며, 다른 시편에도 적용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 섬유등급, 배향각 및 적층방법을 달리하여 제조한 탄소섬유강화 복합재료의 제조변수에 따른 전자파 차폐 특성에 관하여 고찰하였다. 그 결과, 탄소섬유강화 복합재료의 전자파 차폐효과는 섬유의 배향각도에 크게 좌우되었다. 특히 0$^{\circ}$의 배향각에서는 섬유의 등급에 따른 영향을 나타내었으며, 동일한 탄소섬유라 할지라도 배열방향에 따른 전기적 성질의 변화, 즉 전기적 이방성이 클수록 차폐효과는 커졌다. 각각의 적층방법에 따라 제조된 모든 시편은 83~98%의 차폐효과를 나타내었으나, 대칭구조와 비대칭구조에서는 적층각도가 커짐에 따라 차폐효과가 소폭 감소하였다. 그러나 반복구조에서는 위의 두 가지 구조와는 다른 경향을 나타내었으며, 특히 90$^{\circ}$ 반복구조의 경우 측정 주파수 전 영역에 걸쳐 90% 이상의 차폐력을 나타내었다.

The lengths of fibers and vessel elements, vessel diameters, and ray spacings of tension and opposite woods in Quercus mongolica Fischer and their radial variations were examined. Crystallinity indices and crystallites orientations of tension, opposite and lateral woods were also investigated. The lengths of fibers and vessel elements, and ray spacings of tension wood were longer and denser than those of opposite wood, respectively. In the latewood, the vessels of tension wood had a little larger diameters than those of opposite wood. whereas the vessel diameters of earlywood were similar in both woods. With the exception of vessel diameters of earlywood, there were differences between tension and opposite woods in all anatomical characteristics examined. In the radial variation pattern, the fiber lengths of both woods increased markedly to about 15th annual ring and thereafter remained virtually constant. The vessel element lengths of earlywood in tension wood increased to certain annual ring and thereafter were stabilized, but opposite wood had a relatively constant trend from pith to bark. Those of late wood in both woods increased to certain annual ring and thereafter showed constant patterns. Vessel diameters appeared to show similar trend in both woods. Ray spacings decreased to about 15 annual ring and thereafter were stabilized in both woods. In the fine structures, tension wood had higher crystallinity index and better crystallites orientation than opposite and lateral woods.

A new deformation process termed "continuouis confined sup shearing" (CCSS) has been developed for shear deformation of metallic sheets. The tools of CCSS were designed to provide a constant shear deformation of the order of 0.5 per pass while preserving the original sheet shape. In order to clarify the evolution of texture and microstructure during CCSS, strips of the aluminum alloy AA3004 were deformed by CCSS in up to three passes. FEM results indicated that CCSS provides a quite uniform shear deformation at thickness layers close to the strip center, although the deformation is not homogeneous in the die channel, in particular at the surface layers. The rolling texture of the initial sheet decreased during CCSS, and preferred orientations along two fibers developed. However, with an increasing number of CCSS passes the deformation texture did not develop futher. The evolution of annealing textures depended on the number of CCSS passes. A strong {112}<110> component in the deformation texture led to the formation of a strong {111}<112) orientation in the annealing texture. Observations by TEM and EBSD revealed the formation of very fine grains of ∼1.0$\mu\textrm{m}$ after CCSS.

The use of composite patches for the reduction of stresses at the level of the damaged zone in aeronautical structures has experienced rapid expansion given its advantages over conventional mechanical processes (riveting, bolting, etc.). Initially, The research axes in this field were aimed at choosing suitable mechanical properties for the composite and the adhesive, then to optimize the shape of the composite patch in order to ensure good load transfer and avoid having a debonding at the level of the edges essentially for the case of a repair by single side where the bending moment is present due to the non-symmetry of the structure. Our work falls within this context; the objective is to analyze by the finite element method the fracture behavior of a damaged plate repaired by composite patch. Stress reduction at the edge is accomplished by creating a variable angle chamfer on the composite patch. The effects of the crack length, the laminate sequence and the nature of the patch as well as the use of a hybrid patch were investigated. The results show clearly that a beveled patch reduces the stress concentrations in the damaged area and even at its edges. The hybrid patch also ensures good durability of the repair by optimizing its stacking sequence and the location of the different layers according to the fibers orientations.

In the first part of this study, a numerical simulation model was developed using the mechanical APDL software to validate the results of the 3D-elastisity theory on the laminated sandwich plate developed by Panago. The numerical simulation model showed a good agreement to the results of Pagano's theory in terms of deflection, normal stresses, and shear stresses. In the second part of this study, the developed numerical simulation model was used to define different plates dimensions and fibers layup orientations to examine the load response in terms of deflection and stresses. Further analysis was implemented on the natural frequencies of laminated xxx plates of the plates. The layup configurations include Unidirectional (UD), Cross-Ply (CP), Quasi-Isotropic (QI), the linear bio-inspired known as Linear-Helicoidal (LH), and the nonlinear bio-inspired known as Fibonacci-Helicoidal (FH). The following numerical simulation model can be used for the design and study of novel, sophisticated bio-inspired composite structures in a variety of configurations subjected to sinusoidal or constant loads.
