Several methods for improving the interlaminar strength and fracture toughness of composite materials are developed. Through-the-thickness stitching is considered one of the most common ways to prevent delamination. Stitching significantly increases the Mode I fracture toughness and moderately improves the Mode II fracture toughness. An analytical model has been developed for simulating the behavior of stitched double cantilever beam specimen under various loading conditions. For z-directional load and moment about the y-axis the numerical solutions are compared with the exact solutions. The derived formulation shows good accuracy when the relative error of displacement and rotation between numerical and exact solution were calculated. Thus we can use the present model with confidence in analyzing other problems involving stitched beams.

In this work, a closed-form analysis is performed for the structural response of coupled composite blades with multi-cell sections. The analytical model includes the effects of shell wall thickness, transverse shear, torsion warping and constrained warping. The mixed beam approach based on Reissner's semi-complementary energy functional is used to derive the beam force-displacement relations. The theory is validated against experimental test data and other analytical results for coupled composite beams and blades with single-cell box-sections and two-cell airfoils. Correlation of the present method with experimental results and detailed finite element results is found to be very good.

A fertilizer mixed with an electron beam irradiated sewage sludge and a starfish powder was developed. By the irradiation of sewage sledge, it could be hygienic from harmful microorganism and be free from Rely nucleonic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs). The quality of fertilizer mainly consisted of electron beam irradiated sewage sledge could be enhanced by addition of starfish powder rich in organic calcium ion. The growth rate for a grass and a rose tree was enhanced about 35% when a fertilizer applied. By the development of new type of fertilizer, a large amount of sewage sledge and star fish con be utilized as a fertilizer.

In this paper, the evaluation method of interfacial fracture toughness to apply the fracture toughness was investigated in adhesively bonded joints of AI/Ced./A1. Four types of adhesively bonded double-cantilever beam(DCB) joints with the interface crack were prepared for the test of interfacial fracture toughness. The experiments to measure the interfacial fracture toughness were performed under the various mixed-mode conditions. The critical energy release rate, Gc, was obtained by the experimental measurement of compliances. From the experimental results, the interfacial fracture toughness for the mixed-mode specimens is well characterized by the energy release rate, and the method of strength evaluation by the interfacial fracture toughness was discussed in adhesively bonded joints.

The Mixed building structures can be divided into three partition, namely, upper wall, lower frame, and transfer system which link two partitions. The purpose of this study is to investigate the nonlinear response characteristics of structures, as the stories of lower frame of mixed building structures changes.

The Millennium Tower is situated to the north of the center of Vienna. With a height of 202 m it is the highest building in Austria. Realization was improved by new methods. The tower is a typical example of mixed building technology, combining composite frames with a concrete core. Special attention has been paid to the moment connections between the slim floors and the column tubes resulting in a drastically reduced construction time and thin slabs. The semi-continuity has been considered in the design at ultimate and serviceability limit states.

Adhesion of Copper film on the aluminum oxide layer formed by anodizing an aluminum plate was enhanced by applying ion beam mixing method. Forming an conductive metal layer on the insulating oxide surface without using adhesive epoxy bonds provide metal-PCB(Printed Circuit Board) better thermal conductivities, which are crucial for high power electric device working condition. IBM (Ion beam mixing) process consists of 3 steps; a preliminary deposition of an film, ion beam bombardment, and additional deposition of film with a proper thickness for the application. For the deposition of the films, e-beam evaporation method was used and 70 KeV N-ions were applied for the ion beam bombardment in this work. Adhesions of the interfaces measured by the adhesive tape test and the pull-off test showed an enhancement with the aid of IBM and the adhesion of the ion-beam-mixed films were commercially acceptable. The mixing feature of the atoms near the interface was studied by scanning electron microscopy, Auger electron spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

Conventional method to improve the response time of the Cat-SPPCM was to increase fanning beam using cylindrical lens. But, in this case the temporal instability of this SPPCM is increased, and fanning beam plays a role as noise, so that it decreases the reflectivity. Thus, fanning beam must be controlled to improve the properties of SPPCM. In this paper, we propose the method to increase the reflectivity of SPPCM and decrease the response time by focusing line-shaped input beam into photorefractive crystal using cylindrical lens and decrease the temporal instability of output beam by using mixed-polarized beam instead of simple extraordinary polarized beam. Optical experiments show that the reflectivity of proposed SPPCM is increased twice and the response time is reduced by 15 times. Also, we observed that the temporal instability of SPPCM is reduced when the polarization angle of the mixed-polarized beam is between $10^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}$ . We used a $45^{\circ}-cut\;BaTiO_3$ crystal which has high electro-optical coefficients in optical experiments.

The paper presents a review of the application of the newly proposed mixed finite element model for seismic simulation of different types of composite frame structures. To evaluate the performance of the element, a comparison with displacement-based and force-based models is conducted. The study revealed that the mixed model is superior to the others in terms of both speed of convergence and numerical stability, and is therefore considered the most practical approach for modeling of composite structures. In this model, the element is derived using independent force and displacement shape functions. The nonlinear response of the frame element is based on the section discretization into fibers with uniaxial material models. The interfacial behavior is modeled using an inelastic interface element. Numerical examples to clarify the advantages of the model are presented for the following structural applications: anchored reinforcing bar problems, composite steel-concrete girders with deformable shear connectors, beam on elastic foundation elements, R/C girders strengthened with FRP sheets, R/C beam-columns with bond-slip, and prestressed concrete girders. These studies confirmed that the model represents a major advancement over existing elements in simulating the inelastic behavior of composite structures.

This study is to find out how the sawdust-mixed RC beam with holes acts compared to two case of normal one with sawdust without hole, without sawdust. variables are ED3H1, ED3H2, ED3H1UB, ED3H2L, ED5H1, ED5H1UB, ED5H2, ED5H2L, Normal with sawdust PLA without sawdust. All sand, aggregate, cement are in accordance with KS. mixing design is also in accordance with KS and done at D remicon company in order to decrease any error in mixing manually. ED3H1 showed 7tone of maximum load capacity having only minor tensile deformation around hole, compared to the center of the beam. ED5H2L showed almost same shape of tensile strain between hole area and center of two beam length, while having 9.5 tone load capacity, incase of two holes being in the longitudinal axis. But ED5H2 in case of two holes being in same forcing direction showed 8.4tone of load capacity while having minor tensile chape around hole and normal tensile shape in the center of beam length. Two diameter 3cm hole in longitudinal axis give more effective behavior than the other case, practically. Capacity decrease between 5cm and 3cm in eccentric position form the longitudinal axis is less than percents. There is minor capacity difference between hole diameter 3cm hole, but 13tone difference of load capacity between hole diameter 5cm.
