FRP-concrete interfacial mechanical properties determine the strengthening effect of RC beams strengthened with FRP. In this paper, the model experiments were carried out with eight specimens to study the failure modes and the strengthening effect of RC beams strengthened with FRP. Then a theoretical model based on interfacial performances was proposed and interfacial mechanical behaviors were studied. Finite element analysis confirmed the theoretical results. The results showed that RC beams strengthened with FRP had three loading stages and that the FRP strengthening effects were mainly exerted in the Stage III after the yielding of steel bars, including the improvement of the bearing capacity, the decreased ultimate deformation due to the sudden failure of FRP and the improvement of stiffness in this stage. The mechanical formulae of the interfacial shear stress and FRP stress were established and the key influence factors included FRP length, interfacial bond-slip parameter, FRP thickness, etc. According to the theoretical analysis and experimental data, the calculation methods of interfacial shear stress at FRP end and FRP strain at midspan were proposed. When FRP bonding length was shorter, interfacial shear stress at FRP end was larger that led to concrete cover peeling failure. When FRP was longer, FRP reached the ultimate strain and the fracture failure of FRP occurred. The theoretical results were well consistent with the experimental data.

In this work, the blend of diglycidylether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) and modified polyurethane (PU) was prepared and characterized in the cure behaviors and mechanical interfacial properties. The N-benzylpyrazinium hexafluoroantimonate was used as a cationic initiator for cure, and the content of PU was varied within 0-20 phr. The cure behaviors and mechanical interfacial properties were studied by DSC, near­IR, and the critical stress intensity actor $(K_{IC})$ measurements. Also thermal stabilities were carried out by TMA and TGA analyses. As a result, the cure activation energy $(E_a)$ and the conversion $(\alpha)$ were slightly increased with increasing the PU content, and a maximum value was found at 10 phr PU. The mechanical interfacial properties measured from $K_{IC}$ showed a similar behaviors with the results of conversion. These results were probably due to the increase of the hydrogen bonding between the hydroxyl groups of DGEBA and isocyanate groups in PU.

본 실험은 화학적 표면처리된 탄화규소(SiC)가 PMMA 나노복합재료의 열안정성 및 기계적 계면특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. 표면처리된 SiC의 표면특성은 산 염기도, 접촉각 측정 그리고 FT-IR을 사용하여 알아보았으며, SiC/PMMA 나노복합재료의 열안정성은 열중량 분석을 통하여 알아보았다. 또한, 기계적 계면물성은 임계응력 세기인자(critical stress intensity factor, $K_{IC}$)와 임계 변형에너지 방출속도(critical strain energy release rate, $G_{IC}$) 측정을 통해 고찰하였다. 실험결과, 산성 용액으로 표면처리한 SiC(A-SiC)의 표면 산도가 염기성(B-SiC) 또는 표면처리 하지 않은 SiC(V-SiC)보다 높았으며, 접촉각 측정 결과, 산성 용액으로 표면처리는 극성요소의 증가에 기인하는 A-SiC의 표면자유에너지를 증가시켰다. $K_{IC}$와 $G_{IC}$같은 기계적 계면성질은 A-SiC가 향상되었는데, 이러한 결과는 충전재와 고분자 사슬간의 산 염기 상호작용에 의한 계면결합력의 향상에 의한 것으로 판단된다.

The reaction layer formed at interface between matrix and fiber has significant effects on the mechanical properties and behaviors of deformation m FRM. In this study, the mechanical properties and interfacial behaviors according to surface finishing on the fibers and according to heat treatment in FRM were investigated. FRM was fibricated by diffusion bonding method. In W/Al alloy composite and W/Al composite, W of which was coated with $WO_3$, the heat treatment was carried out thermal cycling method from 373K to 673K. In W/Al composite, W of which was coated with $WO_3$, growth of interface layer was hardly occured in spite of the increasing various thermal cycles. It was exhibited that oxidized W/Al composite were higher strength than non-oxidezed W/Al composite with the increasing thermal cycles. The compounds of fiber/matrix interface were analyzed into $WAl_{12}$, $WAl_7$, and $AlWO_3$, respectivly. Therefore the interfacial compounds of fiber/matrix seriously affected the mechanical properties and behaviors of deformation in FRM.

본 연구에서는 나노섬유로 강인화된 복합재료를 만들기 위해 전기방사방법을 이용해서 폴리에틸렌옥사이드 (PEO) 나노섬유를 제조하였고, 제조된 복합재료와의 기계적 계면특성을 비교하기 위해 PEO 입자로 강인화된 복합재료를 제조하였다. PEO 나노섬유의 파이버 직경과 모폴로지는 주사전자현미경을 통해 관찰하였고, 복합재료의 기계적 계면특성은 파괴인성 $(K_{IC})$과 층간 전단 강도실험 (ILSS)을 통하여 알아보았다. 실험결과, 인가전압이 증가될수록 파이버의 직경은 감소하였고. 고전압에서 제트 불안정성의 증가로 인해서 최적의 섬유구조는 15 kV에서 얻을 수 있었다. PEO 나노섬유로 강인화된 에폭시 복합재료는 파괴인성인자 값인 $K_{IC}$와 ILSS가 PEO 입자로 강인화된 복합재료보다 향상된 값을 나타내었다. 이는 나노섬유가 입자에 비해 높은 비표면적과 aspect ratio를 가짐에 따라 복합재료의 기계적 계면특성을 향상시키는데 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 판단된다.

We have assessed the applicability of the thermal-hydraulic system analysis code, SPACE, to a small modular reactor called SMART. For the assessment, the experimental data from a scale-down integral-test facility, SMART-ITL, were used. It was conformed that the SPACE code unrealistically calculates the safety injection flow rate through the CMT and SIT during a small-break loss-of-coolant experiment. This unrealistic behavior was due to the overprediction of interfacial heat transfer at the steam-water interface in a vertically stratified flow in the tanks. In this study, a special thermal-hydraulic component model has been developed to realistically calculate the interfacial heat transfer when a strong non-equilibrium two-phase flow is formed in the CMT or SIT. Additionally, we developed a special heat structure model, which analytically calculates the heat transfer from the hot steam to the cold tank wall. The combination of two models for the tank are called the special component model. We assessed it using the SMART-ITL passive safety injection system (PSIS) test data. The results showed that the special component model well predicts the transient behaviors of the CMT and SIT.

Introduction of CNTs into a metal matrix has been considered to improve the mechanical properties of the metal matrix. However, the binding energy between metals and pristine CNTs wall is known to be so small that the interfacial slip between CNTs and the matrix occurs at a relatively low external stress. The interfacial strength between CNT and metal matrix is thus one of the key factors for successful development of the CNT/metal composites. Defective or functionalized CNT has been considered to enhance the interfacial strength of nanocomposites. In the present work, we design the various realistic hybrid structures of the single wall CNT/Cu complexes and characterize the interaction between single wall CNTs and Cu nano-particle and Cu13 cluster using first principle calculations. The characteristics of functionalized CNTs with various surface functional groups, such as -COOH, -OH, and -O interacting with Cu are investigated. We found that the binding energy can be enhanced by the surface functional group including oxygen since the oxygen atom can mediate and reinforce the interaction between carbon and Cu. These results strongly support the recent experimental work which suggested the oxygen on the interface playing an important role in the excellent mechanical properties of the CNT/Cu composite.

A three-point bending test was performed on roll-bonded Mg/Al/STS clad-metal plates under two different testing conditions (Mg layer in tension, or STS in tension) and their mechanical response and fracture behavior were investigated. Bending strength was found to be greater under the condition of Mg layer in tension. Heat treatment at $200^{\circ}C$ increased the bending formability, suggesting the interfacial strength increased at $200^{\circ}C$. Under the condition of Mg in tension, the clad heat-treated at $300^{\circ}C$ and $400^{\circ}C$ fractured in two steps, with the first step associated with the interfacial fracture between Mg and Al, and the second the fracture of the Mg layer. STS/Al layers were found to be bent without complete fracture. Under the condition of STS in tension, the clad heat-treated at $300^{\circ}C$ and $400^{\circ}C$ exhibited a very small load drop at the displacement, which is similar to that of the first load drop associated with the interfacial fracture under the condition of Mg in tension. In this case, no interfacial cracks were found and the complete cut-through fracture of clad was observed at low temperature heat treatment conditions, suggesting excellent interfacial strength. When the heat treatment temperature was higher than $300^{\circ}C$, interfacial cracks were observed. The local stress condition and the position of the interface with respect to the surface were found to have a great influence on the fracture behaviors of clad metals.
